Нам пригодится помощь второго тестера.
The end of April is approaching, and people are deciding whether to renew their pledges, so I'll start with the bad.
The bad thing is that the second translator, whose helped I wanted to use to speed things up, is still in quarantine and can’t help with the translation. It looked like their quarantine would be lifted on 1st of May, but that didn’t happen unfortunately. Many files are a...

Нам пригодится помощь второго тестера.
Not so many events were completed this week. The main focus was on rebalancing some aspects of the game. Few changes were also made to the start menu. The armourer got some new features as well.
Such small things often take more energy than main events. I generally regret making some of the changes now and not in the second episode.

The only thing that prevents the release at the moment is the programmer’s absence. However, we will use the extra time and improve the update as much as we can.
Keep in mind that I was absent for four days, so few new renders were created.

Reminder - the number of words is an approximation, since the technical documentation contains many additional notes. The amount of words in the English version is about 10-20% higher.

Lovely ladies.
Yes, that's right, no matter the age, ladies. And it doesn't make sense to talk about age today... congratulations on your day. I don’t think there are many of you here (if any at all), but that is not important. I want to wish you all the best on this day and I hope you will enjoy it.
Sincerely,
Novel

Hello,
While the next update is being developed, I would like to talk about the game as a whole.
It currently has a main story and many parallel events. Some of them will influence the main story, however, more often they create separate branches. Parallel events can be avoided completely, they will not stop you from progressing through the main story.
This approach allows us to tell a large number of stories in one game. A visual novel does not allow this...

Another month has passed and it's time to tell you some news about the development progress of the next version.
Right now, the storyline of the first episode is 80 % complete. Somewhere around 60 % of the art for Ilga's storyline is completed, renders for Kilena's event are also ready. Renders and dialogs for Fiona are finished as well. These are the largest parts of the update. There are also several small documents with a varying level of completion.
In total, we'...

We periodically offer the chance to translate TOML into other languages (and we periodically make this announcement). If you have the time and mainly the desire to create a translation, send us a message. There have already been such attempts, but please take into account the fact that the game has a lot of text. People volunteered, translated a couple of sentences and said that they were tired. We've spent more time explaining how to work with Ren'py files. The biggest progress was wit...

Hello,
After the announcement of release dates for version 0.7, we lost some fighters, but the backbone of the army is still there :) In any case, I think it was right to warn you about this, now that I have some estimate. I consider this honest from my side.
In theory, the next update might receive the number 1.0 and become the last update of this episode. However, if this doesn’t work out, then it will be the pre-final update.

Our programmer said he will be able to start working on the code at end of March. Also, this is only a preliminary agreement and who knows what can change, but we hope nothing will. It is two and a half months, and I already have about 10k words ready.
This update will be truly big. Most likely even bigger than the previous one and I can't even imagine how are we going to handle it. I expect we will die of exhaustion during the testing stage, but we will try our best to get throug...

We now have a Steam page for our game, Void's Calling. All dates indicated there are an estimate, but we will try to follow them. We are considering the option to release the game as an early access, but that would be at least after the 0.7 update, which should extend the main storyline.

2019 is near its end. I want to thank everyone who followed our work and especially those who helped us. This year was difficult but productive, and I'm glad we managed to release an update before the holidays. However, there was a moment when I wasn't sure it would happen. In any case, enjoy your holidays.
I will be soon leaving for a short vacation as well.
All the best to everyone.

Due to circumstances beyond my control, the update was finished quite late. Since Christmas is coming soon, we have slightly adjusted the deadlines.
Dec.17.2019 - 10$+ tier
Dec.20.2019 - 5$ tier
Dec.22.2019 - public release
I hope no one is offended by this:)

Saves from 0.2 version - errors are guaranteed and you will most likely not see any new content.
Saves from 0.3 version - errors should be minimal. You might miss some minor events, but nothing serious.
We recommend using the saves we will provide you with. You will get 2 saves (one for English version, one for Russian version), both on normal difficulty and with content from previous versions done, so that you can jump right into new scenes.

1) The code is almost ready. There is still a difficult block with combat and a mini-boss left. It should take 2-4 days.
2) There are some problems with the translation. Some text still remains unfinished. I even found a person to help our translator speed up the process.
Either way, we are in a hurry to get it all done before the holidays. Although, we already understand that the first version won't have proper proofreading for all the events. We apologize in advance...

Hello,
Given the votes of patrons, the new title of the game will be Void's Calling. Of course, we have read all your proposals, but sadly we can’t use them. The reasons for that are given in the last comment in that poll. However, don’t think that we haven’t tried to find other alternatives or that we are happy with the title change.

Not long ago, we found out that there is a game titled Call of the Void on Steam, so we won’t be able to use this title there. Since the new version is coming soon, we invite you to choose a new title for the Pure One’s adventures. We also remind you about changing the version number.
