Breakfast with Aurora
[p]Hello again!
We thought about explaining a bit more about our characters this time! You'll meet a variety of characters throughout Neverway, who can be either village residents or… something else.
For example, here, you might recognize Aurora!
She’s not wearing her usual dress - each character can have different outfits, and this is one of hers.
Aurora is a scientist. She loves understanding the bizarre occurrences throughout the world around her using rock-hard facts. She can help you study new manuals or find books at her bookshop. She also reads a lot of teenage romance novels.
Some of the cutest concepts Pedro has drawn for her.
She has breakfast outside her house in the mornings, and you can join her by sitting next to her.

[/p][p]One of our foundations in Neverway is to always tie our systems together, so we try to make most of the interactions meaningful in some way. For example, by sitting next to Aurora, you can get closer to her and receive a special buff after eating the berries.
Everyone will have their unique routines throughout the week: they can work at their job, eat breakfast or oversleep in the morning. They can also do things together like game nights or have picnics. Just to give an idea, we already have 150 different ones implemented in the game at this point. It turns out it’s a lot of work but we’re doing our best!
We do all sorts of debug tools to help us with these systems. They help so much... I love debugging...
As a final note, we’re getting ready for our first in-person event, BitSummit in Kyoto!!!!

This will be our first time showing Neverway in public!!! We’re very nervous about this. But also excited!
We can’t wait to see how people react and play the game! We’ll also use all the feedback to make sure the game is in its best shape possible before showing it to you all. Although we don’t know yet when this is going to be!
I can probably spoil that, since Neverway is a narrative driven game, we’re taking the approach of a prologue, rather than a traditional “demo”. However, we might have prepared a special mode that unlocks after you finish playing the prologue…
That’s all for now! We have even more cool things to announce… soon… But, for now, you can just keep an eye here for any upcoming updates. Or, even better, join our newsletter:

You can let us know in the comments if there’s anything you want to see covered in the next updates, and thank you for reading!
