3 Months of Relentless Updates — But I Need Your Voice | Ahra Prime Times #10

🕊️ ☵ HIRAETH — an honest update from the developer + 3 months of progress
[p]
Hi everyone, I'm writing this from the bottom of my heart. HIRAETH isn't just a game — it's years of my work, passion, and dreams. Since the launch on September 3rd, I've poured everything into it. The game found a few players, but sales have nearly stopped. There are only 16 reviews, and while I know some people truly love the game, the community has gone quiet.[/p][p]I won’t lie: I’m exhausted. I’ve been working full-time on this project with no financial safety net. Steam payouts were lower than expected, and my debts are growing. I’m at a crossroads, unsure if I can keep going.[/p][p]But before I make any decisions, I want to show you what’s happened in just three months — because a lot has changed:[/p][p][/p][h2]🔧 What’s new since launch?[/h2]
  • [p]Weekly updates and bug fixes[/p]
  • [p]Fully customizable key bindings[/p]
  • [p]Partial controller support[/p]
  • [p]Big challenge - engine upgraded to the latest version for stability[/p]
  • [p]Custom video settings + DLSS support[/p]
  • [p]Custom audio and UI settings[/p]
  • [p]Improved drag-and-drop mechanics[/p]
  • [p]New survival features — including chronic illnesses[/p]
  • [p]Major crafting overhaul with new blueprints[/p]
  • [p]Quest, task, and messaging system added[/p]
  • [p]Big changes to Nesoi Island — including the new Comm Center base[/p]
  • [p]Swimming, diving, and underwater exploration[/p]
  • [p]And dozens of smaller fixes and improvements[/p]
[p][/p][h2]❤️ What now?[/h2][p]I’m not asking for money. I’m asking for a signal that this work matters. If you’ve played — please leave a review. If you want to help — share the game, reach out, say hello. If you have ideas — I’m listening.[/p][p]As you’ve seen with recent changes — like the addition of quests and tasks — we’re standing at the edge of a big step forward. Whether and when that happens now depends on you, the players for whom this game exists.[/p][h2]
🙏 Special thanks[/h2][p]
And to those who already left a review — gnarlyCrone, FLPX86, RickB\[Qc], HiddenRealms, Nixon, rgus48, Eagle, psycoteck7901 — thank you. It’s players like you who keep me going and make it possible to keep working on HIRAETH ːss2heartː[/p][p][/p][p]HIRAETH isn’t just a game. It’s a shared space. If you believe it’s worth continuing — let me know.[/p][p]Thank you for being here — Paweł
