    Update: the Finishing Touch

    We're excited. Are you excited?

    Let me explain what's going on...

    In brief, very soon, we expect to deliver the demo to you.

    As for the longer version of the facts... here we go.

    How is the Translation Going?
    In the previous post I said that we were trying to give you the demo by the end of September. Now it's the beginning of November.

    We have had some difficulties in finding a good translator and that has caused an important delay.

    But finally the translation is done.

    We have to do some proof reading and some extra checks to ensure that dialogs are still working properly, but most of the work is done.

    More Testing
    While waiting for the translation to be completed, we've been conducting some additional important tests.

    At this point, the bugs aren't a big concern.

    Don't get me wrong, there are still bugs and you'll likely encounter quite a few of them when playing the demo. The fact is that, most likely, the bugs you'll encounter will be small. In fact, some are so small, that only the devs know that it's a bug.

    Considering the (tiny) size of our team, the (small) amount of testers and the (early) development stage of the demo, we see that as a success.

    Is it possible that a game-breaking bug pops out while playing the demo?

    Yes. Some testers encountered one of those, others didn't. We're trying to eliminate as many of them as possible. But to have a full list, we'd need thousands of players testing the game... and that isn't possible unless we do something like an early access - which, by the way, we're considering for 2024... but let's talk about this another time.

    Hopefully you won't encounter any game-breaking bug... but just in case, save the game often and you're safe. Also, that prevents you from having a "Dark Souls moment", since BioSynth can be unforgiving at times.

    Anyway, let's move away from bugs because our recent tests were also oriented towards something else... and that is improving the gameplay experience for you.
