Gods of the Twilight News

We're now up to 32 hand-drawn environments, which is up 14 from the last update! Many of them include easter eggs and other interesting details that we had fun adding, so look closely, and you won't be disappointed! And even if you don't, you'll probably find that a lot of the game looks different than it did before.

This week is the 1-year anniversary of our release into Early Access, including chapters 1-5. Originally, we aimed to have our next batch of chapters ready for release after 1 year, but we're discovering just how much of an undertaking this game is as we go, from the art to the voice acting to all the choices we're scripting. Not to mention the next batch of chapters is bigger than the first! The flow of the narrative demands that we release chapters 6 through 12 together, so that's 7 chapters instead of 5.

Considering the above, we expect to share chapters 6 through 12 with you in 2025. More updates to come as we go! And we're happy to chat about the latest on Discord!

We now have 18 hand-drawn environments, 6 of which are brand new since the last update!

4 more pieces are already in the works, continuing to replace our 3D-rendered placeholder backgrounds with detailed art specific to our world and its characters.

Meanwhile, work on the next chapters continues! If you would be interested in beta testing, reach out to us on Discord!

​We're working our way through all of the game's environment renderings, replacing Unreal-rendered placeholders with hand-drawn paintings. This update adds 9 more, for a total of 12!

We're also now nearly done with the beta version of Chapter 7, the second new chapter that will be included in the next batch of story content!

We're continuing to add hand-drawn background art to replace the Unreal-rendered backgrounds we initially used!

We're working mostly chronologically through the game, so you can see updated intro dream visuals for Farkas, and updated visuals for Althea's home.

On the development side, we just completed the beta version of Chapter 6 and are moving forward with getting the rest of the next episodic release into beta as well.

A few updates, including:

Autosaves!
- The game will automatically save at each story choice and at the beginning of each chapter.
- There is a page on the Save and Load menus dedicated to autosaves.

New background art!
- We are gradually replacing our 3D-rendered environment art with hand-drawn art.
- The first background image replaced is your bedroom when playing as Althea. It's now much more specific to her as a character.
