I Know This Place..? (chapter II) News

Hello everyone, and we hope you have not forgotten about us!
Work is going on every day, but since we are 3-5 people (at different times) and on enthusiasm, it is not possible to do quickly.

Right away I would like to ask you to add this chapter to your wishlist and recommend it to your friends. Why? And because showing statistics to potential future investors this number is very important.
If you want to help us in our development, then share the project with your friends.

What's in the news?

-We have prepared a full presentation (pitch deck) in two languages for potential investors and partners. If you are interested in long-term partnership - please contact us via [email protected].

-ARG (alternative reality game principle) will appear in chapter 2 in one riddle. So there is a connection to the real world. The riddle is not very difficult, and solving it will unlock an Achievement in Steam.

-The first who will pass the whole chapter opening all the achievements (legally and honestly) will receive a handmade gift, specially made to order for the release of Chapter 2.

-We made an unusual prototype of interaction with items. However, it takes time to implement it and not sure what we will use (the prototype was made on a different engine).

-Opened subscription for iKnow tokens. If you buy more than 5 TON of iKnow tokens, you get into a private chat with Boosty subscribers. There we discuss the early plot, come up with puzzles together, and more. The iKnow token is traded here.

Tokens can be found in Chapter 2 in the form of coins in the levels. Who will collect all of them - will get a free bonus iKnow tokens.

-Added 1 additional (not mandatory) location. It will be possible to get to it only after passing the chapter on one of the story branches.


All updates we posting every day in our main public: t.me/IKTP_RU


And by the way there is chat with discussion of the universe of I Know This Place, and there we have connected our bot Ori (developed by one of our subscribers - P1gvo1ce). The bot works on GPT model and knows the universe of the game. You can chat with him on this topic.

However, many people already know about us and great development awaits us ahead.

Summer, where is Chapter II?
We'll try to release it by the end of summer. We are adding new locations. And yes - after release we will support and expand it because... it is already scaling.
Chapter I has also been updated.


What other news:

-Our Boosty subscribers have raised their levels. This is great! Thank you. (You can become Boosty and support the project here)

-Considers the issue of closer cooperation with VK PLAY. They have been following our project from the very beginning and they like it. It makes me happy! Thank you for your support!

-Chapter 2 will be released at the end of summer, if we have time. We decided to redo the logic for grabbing objects. Useful for the future and to avoid bugs (AND THEY WILL BE!)

-The iKnow token will appear in the game. It will be possible to find them as coins. We will give a gift to everyone who finds it. We are not developing the token yet - hurry to buy at sweet prices on Ston fi

-The prize is almost ready, it took 2 months to complete. We'll show you later. The first person to complete the game will receive it.

-Chapter 2 has an ARG. That is, a connection with the real world. The universe is intertwined.

-You can still offer to add something of yours to the game, even order your own location. But this is all through Boosty.

Our Boostysubscribers have their own private chat with us and essentially participate in the development. You can become one of the participants and support the project.

What's new:
-We are working on assembling the logic into one project. What's ahead is the assembly of sound, the connection of locations, the UI of the entire game and the menu (it will be new, cool, vintage film-vibe).

-We are solving the issue of self-financing. We now have a partner token iKnow on the TON network, which is already on the Ston Fi exchange. Find out more in our blog. Thanks to it, you will be able to receive a percentage of the campaign's income and have the ability to vote, buy/sell game items, and more. This is all in the future. However, a start has been made.

-You can still leave your items, photos, voiceovers, etc. in Chapter II. Write to our chat which has the most action and memes.

-Well, here’s a bunch of screenshots from development:

These are the layouts (sold as kits for assembly without glue, etc.) that we will give away among our public subscribers if there are enough people.

This is exactly the same house where Vladimir lives. You can put a garland or a flashlight in the appropriate apartment.
And after the release of Chapter II, we will play an exclusive diorama of Vladimir’s apartment, with all the details. But photos will come later - in the process. Also, DLC (free) will be released in the near future - a photo album with Vladimir’s recordings. He will tell you more about Vladimir's past and his experiences.
