Progress Report 2023.03.13: Episode 3 Part 1 Update Coming Soon!

Hi friends,

Happy March! I hope you are all having a good month. This will be a quick update to get some things in order.

Current development is on track for getting an update out near the end of the month/early April. All content for the Veyer branch is finally complete and Aeran’s is edited. This week I am starting the editing process on Veyer’s content and will likely have to revisit some of Aeran’s content. Once that it finished, it can go off to my editor while I work on bug fixes and some background code overhauls in preparation for the patch.

Once edits are finished, I need to code the material and get it into the game. After that, it will be off to the playtester team for a few checks before it is released on the alpha.

As a reminder, the next update is a partial one and will only include playable content if you did specific routes at the end of Episode 2. This includes:

• Sleeping with Veyer
• Reconciling with Aeran (either the friendship or romance version)
• Breaking your romance or friendship with Aeran at the end of the reconciliation scene
• Aeran’s low romance if you go back to the apartment early (meaning you must decline to go to Mel’s party or decline Veyer; it doesn’t matter whether you confront Aeran in his room or not, that variation is accounted for)

Once the update is out, I’ll be able to turn my focus to the rest of Episode 3 Part 1 and start work on the Mel branch and the miscellaneous branch that acts as a catch-all for all other Ep 2’s endings.

Other Updates

The Wayfarer 2023 Calendar was a huge success! All together we raised $1094.54 USD, which has been donated to the Astraea Lesbian Foundation for Justice. I am so honoured that the calendar was a huge hit, and I’m so thankful to everyone involved for their passion and excitement for this project.

As always, thank you all so much for your support. 💕 I’m looking forward to getting the update out and to be starting the next leg of Wayfarer’s development!
