[UPDATE] — Aurelie, PART 4 — $20 Release


AURELIE, PART 4 — $20 RELEASE


This is it, we achieved peak fiction. We created something, that overshadows any and all of our previous updates. A true masterpiece, that combines drama, suspense, an honest passion, and damn best h-scene we released in a good while. No matter how hard we try, we can't imagine a better ending to the most tear-inducing story arc our game has ever seen!

This update is the best evidence for how much we love this project. Take for example the fact, that it doesn't crash on launch! Where else have you seen thing? In modern era of gaming, that's more than you could bargain for!

Jokes aside, this is one of the best updates we ever put out. Not because it's the biggest or the craziest, but because every part of it resembles how far we had come as a team, that we never stopped caring, didn't try to milk this game or treat it as a cash cow. We just love making smut, and there is no better reward for our hard work, than seeing you genuinely enjoy it.

And as a cherry on top — you get to cuck Chris. This time for real.

As an addition, as we stated in yesterday's post, part of the profits we make from this release will go towards helping our colleagues and families out during imminent Winter blackouts. Many of you are probably aware, that we are for the most part a Ukrainian team, with some of our artists, and majority of our family members still living there. Last Winter was harsh; due to constant bombings they have been existing in a more or less constant state of power outage, with 3 hours of power a day on average. Since upcoming Winter promises to be about as awful, we have started our small personal campaign to make necessary repairs at their homes to ensure warmth, as well as to buy high-capacity power stations (Anker).

We do not accept any additional donations, so if you want to partake in our efforts to do something good, feel free to just get access to our game during patron-release phase. That's more than enough and we will greatly appreciate your contribution!

Now though, it is time to indulge in earthly pleasures.
 

BUT ALSO...

AURELIE, PART 3 — AVAILABLE TO $5 PATRONS!


Long have you waited for this moment, long have you endured, but the time has finally come! And so shall you!

Okay, we will be the first to admit - it was rather cruel of us to end her story on a massive cliffhanger, and then blueball you for almost an entire year. Though we would want to say that it will never happen again, when you are dealing with a dozen of characters at a time, giving each of them enough attention is far from easy, even with our ridiculously rapid release pace. Still, we'd like to make it up to you for the wait!

PATCH NOTES:

— Added an option to skip time and to end the day by clicking on the energy bar. No need to run back to your room anymore!
— Added a new button into the settings menu, that will instantly unlock the entire gallery.
— Fixed numerous bugs and typos.
— Improved, but not yet perfected backwards save compatibility. In some instances you might still get locked of progressing story if you are using an older save. We will continue working on it, but in a meantime we strongly recommend not using saves from before Reina's update.


If you enjoy what we do and would like to take part in shaping our game's future, be sure to join high ranks and get access to this and every upcoming closed testing, as well as many other rewards!

Pleaseee help. I posted this a few days ago and got no answers...

I just lost basically all of my Hero Gallery, I don't know what to do!

The only things left are Andre's and Bridgette's replays and the X-Ray and Sombra's pictures. The Sombra's replays aren't there too, and neither all of the other routes (I'm up to date with the free releases).

Is there anything I can do? I downloaded and booted up this new version as per usual, and still have the previous one in my computer. The previous one was normal until now, but I opened it and the gallery is also lost now.

Also, looking at Sombra's (Reina's) market, some variants that I'd already bought and Tracy's (Sonya's) spy cam are there...

Sorry, missed this comment!

It's because of the name change we did and sadly due to Ren'Py being really dependant on name structure there is no way to fix it.

BUT You can type in the konami code in the main menu of the game — Just type on your keyboard 🢁 🢁 🢃 🢃 🢀 🢂 🢀 🢂 🅱️ 🅰️ and it should unlock the whole gallery.

Thank you!

Glad you like the game even after the changes <3

Okay how long will this be free? I saw something like 20$, 12$, 5$ and then FREE or something like that, but I don't see what I assume is a fixed price to get the whole game and future content?

Tier requirement to play new update get lowered with each week, up until it become free. On average every update becomes free after 4 weeks.

Hhhhmm okay I'm still trying to understand Itch.io 

In some chases it looks like you can have kinda every situation.

How is the map rework going and when will we get an story for Tracer?

(1 edit)

The map is basically almost ready, but we need time to add background characters and implement it all into game code. So that's what we will do starting next year. It will also include new interface and music and lot's of other quality of life stuff.

On Sonya (prev. Tracer) — we already started her redesign and Young is figuring out her new theme for the story, so we are hard at work right now on both fronts!

The redesigns look amazing, but I have to ask, was one of the scenes with Sombra being bald intensional?

Ahahah, no, it's a layering bug. It should be fixed in the current beta build, but we'll double-check.
