Hang Tight

We know it's been a while without updates and we apologize for that. Content delivery has been happening steadily and we just wanted to update all of you that we should enter testing this weekend. Keep an eye out for the first teaser that will have the delivery date on it.

Status Update, Checkpoint System

It's been roughly a month since we last updated you guys and we're here to provide more details. We have officially entered what we call implementation. . This is when SR7 compiles the assets, along with writing and passes it off to Henshin to implement. There are no firm timelines on how long this takes, as re-writes, and asset errors are caught here. But the next stage after this is testing.

We have implemented a new checkpoint system to aid in our communication, and build progress...

Correction On Build Update

I wrote 2.4.8 was highly received, and 2.4.7 was a miss. This was backwards, 2.4.7 scored above 90%, and 2.4.8 scored 68%. These scores actively reflect the users comments, and overall reception from the build.

Sorry for the mistake!

Build Update Progress

We have been quietly working away towards this next Gotham update. But we're are here to announce that we're about 80% complete on the assets creation. SR7 has began handing off assets for Henshin to implement. From here once all assets are in we will hand off the build to our testing team.

We want to thank everyone who took a great deal of their time to provide us with input about what it was about SU you liked so much. We were blown away with the amount of responses, and there were ...

Gotham Asset Pack

In an effort to reduce the size of the packs we will now be sharing just the most recent art packs. This way you can download the pack then add it into your folder, rather than downloading a large file and taking only the newer art.

Every quarter we will share the full pack as well for everyone to make sure you all can have access to the older full pack.

Additionally if you're thinking of not subbing again we will make these packs for purchase, however they will be at a later ...

We Need Your Help!

You can help contribute to our direction for only $1.00 per month

In our town hall we discussed a new "filter" we're going to pass much of our content through. This filter isn't some software, or ChatGTP plug in. It basically a checklist of how we want our content experienced.

For example, one of the most liked story lines in all of SU is Miss Martians cell content. The subtle corruption of her is something many have commented they enjoy the most. But then contrast that with Aug...

GG Town Hall Recap And News

We are all ready to kick off 2025 here at GG and we're going to share news with you guys regarding many things to kick off our year. Here are some highlights from last nights town hall.

Goodbye Timed Releases!
As many of you know we struggle with firm deadlines in the creation of SU. This isn't something unique to us, and really is something that is a problem with any creative entity. So we have made the decision to stop delivery updates bi-monthly, and move to a...

SU 2.4.8

Well here it is finally! 2.4.7 Gotham update has been one for the books. At the end of November we had a discussion about potentially delaying the build to around this time. The thought was if we took some of December we could get some extra content in. We chose to forgo that option as the build was nearly done at that point. We then were hit with a positioning bug that ultimately ate through weeks of time. Frankly we should have just rolled back the build and implemented the content again. ...

View Post

Status Update

We have sent the build off to our internal testing team. The repositioning issue was resolved, but it resulted in us having to go over the entire implementation of key content in order to make sure the key parts worked. We're getting closer to release, and are confident it will come out very soon.

View Post

Status Update

Hey everyone. We're still very much on day to day at this point. Once the problem is resolved the update will be out shortly after that.

The problem is a positioning issue with Unity. Random characters will be incorrectly positioned, and our not show up at all. This has happened in the past, but that fix didn't resolve the issue. So we're currently working through the build to see if we can find the issue.

Thank you for your patience.

SU Android Build 94

Henshin has been hard at work cramming as much content he can into our Android build. This build adds a significant amount of content on top of the existing Android update. Please remember that at this file size there is some of you that will hit the ceiling of RAM usage, which may result in unexpected crashes or long load times. If you have an older device that has lower RAM counts, and or you have a lot of apps installed that routinely "ping" you may run into problems. This build has been t...

The Halloween Event (Ren'py)

This is our first foray into legacy content (Pre-Themyscira) and it was a harsh lesson. When the Halloween event was first conceptualized our thoughts were that a whole new event could take place utilizing BG's and elements from the Yacht event. This worked up to a point. That point was when you tried to get multiple people onto beds/couches within the Yacht things just don't work out. This cycle there were so many lost hours in art, with many full images scraped entirely. We learned a valuab...

October Dev Blog

The leaves are changing colour here in Canada, and the nights are dropping to 0 C. With that means our year is nearly over, and we have this last quart to cap off a huge transition year for us. This months build will be Halloween. This was our first foray back to legacy content (Content prior to Themyscira) and it has been challenging. First the design of the Halloween event as far as art creation goes is horrible. The Halloween event was developed quickly by utilizing BG assets from the Yach...

Asset Pack 47

This pack was supposed to go out much earlier in the month. I'm sorry we we're a touch late in delivering it to you all. We're also breaking the packs down now, so all the new packs will only contain the new assets rather than have the entire library in them. This should help those who have d/l limits.

September Dev Blog

I was going to write a more personal blog on how our summer has been with SR7 and myself. But it became a long drawn out post that just really conveyed zero information. Basically summer went by way too fast, the leaves are changing, and the air has that winter bite in it already. Canada is a beautiful place, but it is also a harsh environment for 6 months of the year. But now on to important matters.

Prior to the last release SR7 said to me "this is probably the most ambitious build ...

For now have a great weekend and we hope you all enjoy this update.

Gotham Stand Alone

Here it is, our second stand alone to be released. Most of you have played the newest Gotham content we released last month. But there is a growing base of Android users who will now get to experience the content. Plus Mac users now have a much more seamless experience, instead of running VMs.

Next months Gotham update will be add to the stand alone, with Unity additions to follow eventually. But for now here is the Gotham Event in Ren'py.
