Steam Achievements Preview

Who would have thought that during the development of the game, Steam would have changed the rules of achievement design! If before we had to cram in a cramped 64x64, now the achievement must be 256x256, which is 16 times bigger.

Despite the fact that in time we will have to transfer all previous achievements to the new format, I think that this news is quite positive, because before in the 64x64 window it was sometimes not clear what was going on.

Now everything is more than ob...

Entrance to the dormitory

Another background for the upcoming fifth chapter was finalized not too long ago! This is the entrance to the dormitory, in case anyone didn't realize. This work, as well as all the others, was done by our artist, Eliana-Asato, for which we thank her very much! This background can be used in some moments of the previous chapters as well, which we will probably do in the future. At the moment it seems to be one of the last graphic works needed for the release of the update on Steam. So we will...

[WIP] Side characters

As an experiment, I'm going to try adding these characters to the pre-release version soon. These are the very new characters for which temporary sprites are currently used or not used at all. For now, the availability of the sprites in the final version of the game has not been confirmed, but it is still a possibility. 

Can you guess who's who here?))

HCG Lin 02 (more)

At the beginning of the month I received some more new versions of the HCG scene drawings from Eliana-Asato. This is not all that I received and not all of what will be presented in this scene!

A bit of news

As you can see, the work is going on! Despite the fact that for every step made fate tries to push us back by two steps, we try not to be discouraged and continue our work! In total we have 13 versions of HCG for the new stage! The scene, as usual, is rather big, so there are many more variations, including quite alternative ones (in fact, one more HCG - just don't tell our artist Eliana-Asato about it or she will beat me!) We've already posted some of these basic variations on Patreon and Bo...

HCG Lin 02

So, here are some versions ready for the new HCG with Lin! Of course, these are not all ready versions. At the moment 13 versions are ready, but we will show only 3 for now. More new versions are on the way, because this scene is very big and diverse (although only the main walkthrough is written for it right now, the additional walkthroughs will be written later, as well as the artwork for them)

As always, huge thanks to our artist Eliana-Asato for the work done!

[WIP] HCG Lin 02 (flat)

Happy Valentine's Day!

Do you feel like the world has gone to hell lately, too?
Well, maybe you're not the only one.
Or maybe it's not just a feeling...

In times like these, it's worth turning to lofty feelings. And one of these feelings is love. On this day, we, the developers of Second Chance, want to wish you love and be loved. There are no walls that honest, sincere, unselfish love can't break. There is no ice that the rays of kindness and love could not melt (please, do not direct your rays of lov...

Upcoming Update

It so happens that we have accumulated a lot of unreleased material. We planned to make a small unscheduled update of the game, but it turned out that this unscheduled update is almost bigger than the planned one. Besides, it turned out to be just as problematic to put it into the game separately from the other materials. That's why we developed a new scheme for implementing future updates:

1. Pre-Release version of the Lin story for the fifth chapter
2. Pre-Release version of everyt...
