Chapter 1 (V0.1.1) was released this week and we have been blown away by its reception! We want to thank everyone who has left a rating/review or reached out with even more detailed feedback.

We've known for a few months now that we had something very special on our hands. It's no longer our little secret anymore, and it feels great now to share its ongoing development with the world.

From when Josselyn first started learning how to use DAZ last summer, it has been about 10 months of almost full-time development to complete Chapter 1. We do not expect future chapters to take nearly as long, as a lot of that time was learning what we didn't already know and setting up a strong foundation to continue building upon.

The Photogram phone app currently included in Chapter 1 was meant to be part of the Chapter 2 release. But as we got closer to releasing Chapter 1 we couldn't resist squeezing it in, even though it delayed the release of Chapter 1 by a month. We feel that it adds so much depth and immersion, we just couldn't imagine leaving it out when it was already so close to completion.

Chapter 2 Development Progress:

TheOmega is already hard at work on the last big feature, which is text messaging. It will be a crucial part of the gameplay in Chapter 2 and beyond. This also means that the development of Chapter 2, while shorter than Chapter 1, will be longer than future chapters.

Our current estimate is a mid-to-late summer release of Chapter 2, and we will keep you updated as we progress. We are confident it will be worth the wait!

In the meantime, we have a lot of ideas on how to keep fans involved in the development process, especially through polling on Patreon and SubscribeStar. We welcome your ideas, as well. Quality content takes time to produce, but we are committed to keeping our fans involved and updated even in the months between major updates.

One thing Josselyn has been experimenting with is recording her process of making the 3D renders. We will post a sample of what that might look like in a post on Patreon and SubscribeStar today. Let us know if you'd be interested in seeing more content like that, or any other ideas that you have!

Thanks as always for your support! None of this would be possible without you.
