Devlog #17 | Seaons, House Upgrade, Job Board and more!
[h2]Hello Researchers![/h2]
We recently announced our Early Access release date to be ✨February 20, 2023✨! Thank you everyone so much for your support, kind words, and excitement - I truly can’t be more grateful, and am even a little overwhelmed! https://youtu.be/bgjVbf1ZYDc
In December, I’ve been wrapping up the first cut of Research Story, and have been busy playtesting, bugfixing, and adding little things to improve the game. Here are some highlights for the content added:
[h2]NPC Researchers’ Books & Job Board 📖[/h2]
You’re not the only researcher at the Violet Archive! Your colleagues would also be adding books in their fields to the Archive, and you can get a glimpse of the content - and maybe learn a thing or two!
Shelf with Geology books
You’ll also unlock the Job Board as you progress, and can submit items that NPCs have requested to gain their favour and additional coin.
Job Board

There’ll be 4 seasons in Research Story, and each season gets their unique colour palette and designs. Here’s a snippet:
