Midterm update on Devotion v0.09

Hi fellas, it's time for another midterm update, so I'll share some details about development that is going. My general feeling is that so far the pace is more or less acceptable for the planned scope. I didn't have to worry about bugs this time, so I could go straight for the new stuff.

First of all, I've done some work and reevaluation about required characters for this section of the game, it requires 9 more new characters to add except for the ones in this update. Two new characters...

Roadmap for v0.09

Greetings everyone, roadmap for v0.09 is ready, this time I decided to listen to some complains so there will be not only content.

So, Arty won the poll so there will be another level of desire for him, that's established. The second character will be Timothy, another one of your numerous classmates. For him it will be the usual for starting characters - progress throught all levels of relations, personal quest and first level of desire.

Regarding features, people suggested to hav...

Devotion 0.08 Public version is out!

Hi everyone, it's about time to release new public version 0.08. As always it will be available on our discord server.

I haven't get any messages about issues since Early Access, so I'm assuming everything is alright, but ready for a hotfix anyway if a broader part of the community finds some issues. I still hope everythig will be fine. Thus, nothing has changed except few minor fixes since Early Access, so I'll duplicate the changelog just in case.

Plan for the version 0.09 will ...

Devotion v0.08 Early Access is out

Hello everyone, 0.08 Early Access version is out today! This version didn't have any features and was strictly content oriented due to number of processed scenes.

So the main content of this version was naturally about Viktor. He got another desire level with respective continuation of all events, that was the last desire level for him that involves only MC. Demands for opening it up are pretty simple, so it won't take much time since the previous desire level. This is not all for Vikto...

Midterm update on Devotion v0.08

Hello everyone, so some development time has past, and I'm here to share some details for those who are interested.

First of all, all the small issues and bugs found and reported to me after releasing public version 0.07 were fixed and will be in the next release. Now to the progress, as you remember there were only last desire level for Viktor and two new characters.

Two new characters will be another male teacher and one more male classmate, those are the last ones who are going...

Roadmap for v0.08

Hello everyone, roadmap for v0.08 is ready but it's actually pretty small on the paper, not workwise though.

As was mentioned, Viktor won the poll so his story and last level of desire will be impemented. That's actually the most vast part of the update, because he has the most scenes out of everyone (50 events) and I planned them to be for last level of desire a bit extented. This time there won't be any second character for development. This also doesn't mean that's the end for Viktor...

Devotion 0.07 Public version is out!

Hello everyone, it's time to release our new public version! It will be available on our discord server.

Few issues were reported and otherwise found since the release of Early Access, all of them were fixed, so as always there is a hope for a stable version and no need for hotfix. Everything else featurewise and related to content stayed the same so I'll duplicate the changelog just in case.

Plan for the version 0.08 will be done in few days, the polls have just been closed and t...

Devotion v0.07 Early Access is out

Hello everyone, 0.07 Early Access version is finally out! Unfortunately it took a lot longer than I anticipated, partly because of wrong estimates, partly because of some personal issues. There still are few minor issues, but they will be fixed till public release.

Main content of this version is about Arty and Connor. Arty got another desire level with respective continuation of events. Connor and his story was expanded with adding few new events for Elena. He got relationships level u...

Midterm update on Devotion v0.07

Hi guys, we've came closer to releasing v.0.07. First of all I'm gonna remind that few bugs from public v.0.06 were not fixed at the time and I didn't have time for a hotfix, that's why you should expect those fixes with the release of next Early Access version. Now regarding the progress - I finished with the features and now dealing with the character content.

Main feature was adding event indication for locations, so if there is some special event in specific location at certain date...

Roadmap for v0.07

Hello everyone, let's talk a bit about plans for version 0.07. But first I gotta tell that after public release there were found several issues regarding Mr.Haggerty quest and one of his scenes. Considering that those were not that critical and absence of time I won't release another hotfix and postpone those till next Early Access.

So about the plans, scope will be smaller than previous one and I hope I'll manage to bring it faster, though the single feature I planned may take a solid ...

Devotion 0.06 Public version is out!

Hi, the tome has come to release our new public version! It will be available for everyone on our discord server.

Since the release of Early Access there were found a bunch of issues, some of them were even serious enough to force me make a Hotfix, but now everything seems to be relatively stable. Regarding all the features and content, nothing new was done, so I won't mention it here, but as usual will dublicate it in the changelog.

Plan for the version 0.07 will be prepared in f...

Mr.Haggerty and his story was expanded as well as some events for Olly. He got the usual treatment, relationships level up to 5, enabling desire, first desire level events and his personal quest. Unfortunately I may have given not e...

Small update on Devotion v0.06

Hi everyone, as I promised the month have passed and I'm here with news on the development progress.

All new content for Viktor and Mr.Haggerty is already complete and new characters are added. System of scene indication is also integrated, unfortunately I had to redo it few times because Unity didn't support saves of respective variables in the original variant of the code, so it took longer than expected but looks like it works now. New locations and most of the features are done. 2025-07-17 08:05:52 +0000 UTC View Post

Midterm update on Devotion v0.06

Hello guys, it's time for another midterm update, but unfortunately the news are not that pleasant at the moment, I had some issues with developement, including some personal stuff.

Because the main feature of next update is scene indication and it's huge, I decided to start developing it in the first place. I had to create separate list of all scenes with all relevant info and from that to start putting it into the databases. Main part of the code is ready, but not all, last part only...

Roadmap for v0.06 + Public v.0.05 Hotfix

Hi everyone, unfortunately this time Hotfix was needed, quite plenty of noticable bugs were discovered. You'll be able to see what was fixed in the changelog.

To the plans of version 0.06, scope is big because of one main feature, so it will probably take full month to develop. As always it will be more clear at the Midterm update, so I'll notice everyone.

The poll was won yet again by Viktor, so I'll continue advancing content with him. The second character whose story will be ...

Devotion 0.05 Public version is out!

Hi, it's finally time for new public version to come out! It will be available for everyone on our discord server.

Since the release of Early Access there were no complains about the build performance or any issues, so I think it's stable. I only had to fix few minor things I missed. As usual I won't mention all the features and content that were added, because it didn't change since Early Access and can be checked within changelog.

Plan for the version 0.06 will be prepared in fe...

Most of the work was done for Mr.Peterson and his story, it's relationship increasement, enabling desire, first desire level events and his personal quest. I have some doubts about t...

Midterm update on Devotion v0.05

Also I added info about possible jobs that can be reached through laptop, additionally I corr...

Roadmap for v0.05

Hi guys, I'm glad to find out that Hotfix was not necessary this time and that all the changes that I've made since the last version didn't break anything.

About the plans to the version 0.05, scope is again quite large, so it's possible that it again will take up to whole month to develop, or maybe a little bit less though. It will be much clearer when we reach Midterm update, I'll share more clarified estimation there. Regarding the poll, yet again victory goes to Viktor, he is going ...

Devotion 0.04 Public version is out!

Hi everyone, the time for new public version has come! It's already available on our discord server for downloading.

Nobody complained about the Early Access version, so I assume there were no major flawes in there. I hope this time hotfix won't be needed, but you can never know. Thought I still made slight adjustments since Early Access, they shouldn't affect anything drastically. Don't forget to report if something is wrong, I will fix it as soon as possible. Changelog will duplicate ...

Midterm update on Devotion v0.04

Hi guys, it's time for another midterm update on development path for v.0.04. Of course there was fixing some of the bugs I've missed, thanks to the community I've managed to uncover some interesing cases. Huge part of work was done on reshaping the code and repositories so they would be more convenient for further development, but as usual this could cause some issues in the places where everything worked fine previously. That's why next update would require more thorough testing.

Rega...

Roadmap for v0.04 + Public v.0.03a Hotfix

Hi everyone, unfortunately this time Hotfix was also needed due to one major bug, I'm releasing it today, found it thanks to the community, as well as few other small ones. Now it should be stable enough to last till the next version is out.

So, the plans to the version 0.04, scope is quite bigger than last, so another bad news - it will take longer than last time. I can't estimate at this point how much longer, but it will be more clear during Midterm update, so I'll notice everyone. T...

Devotion 0.03 Public version is out!

Hello everyone, it's time for new public version and it's already available on our discord server!

There seemed to be no complains about the Early Access version, so there were only few minor adjustments from my part after that, thus the build must be quite stable and hotfix won't be needed. But you could still report if something is wrong, it will be fixed in the next version. As always, there is a changelog for latest added features and mentioning which stories were extended so you ca...

Midterm update on Devotion v0.03

Hi guys, we've come closer to releasing v.0.03, as usual at first I fix bugs, add new features and create new characters, primary content is added in the second half. This time is no different so all the bugs that were mentioned previously are fixed plus few others I found while scrolling through the events. This time development moves much faster than with previous update, one of the reasons that there were less new characters to add.

The phone feature is ready, basically opening map ...

Roadmap for v0.03 + Public v.0.02c Hotfix

Hi guys, first of all - today I'm releasing a Hotfix for v.0.02c, thanks to the community I fixed some of the bugs that hurt the gaming process. I think that the version it now stable enough to wait for the next one. The version is already available at the discord server.

Devotion 0.02 Public version is out!

Hi, it's finally time for new public version that will be available for everyone on our discord server!

I managed to keep up with the roadmap plan for v.0.02 regarding general content, improvements and new features, but unfortunately not all the content I planned got into this version. Specifically I mean scenes for certain interactions, mainly due to lack of softcore content required for current level of development, but I continue searching for the right stuff so it will get there as ...

Devotion v0.02 Early Access is out

Alright, we've managed to make it to our first early access release for v.0.02! Unfortunately it took me longer than I thought to get all the content required for this one, and some of the things I promised are still have to be done. Specifically a feature to highlight the relations or desire of respective character that reached the cap and introduction events for some basic mechanics, also I wanted to change home district icon and sign it as 'home'. All this things I intend to finish until t...

Midterm update on Devotion v0.02

We've moved closer to releasing v.0.02, all three new characters and primary content for them are already added and ready for testing. Unfortunately adding main content for Viktor and Arty's stories was delayed for a few days because of various bugfixing. Though it's a good thing, thanks to the community I managed to fix some of the features that were actually not working properly at all, like making gifts.

Also I got plenty of good ideas for further improvement of the game from the pla...
