What a week it's been. We've seen good numbers on our Discord server with a whole bunch of new, awesome people joining to look at photos of Dobby the pupper. Some of them even discuss the game!
This has be...

Friday Devlog! ::whoop whoop::
As promised, we're releasing the next batch of weekly content today.
While success is certainly relative, I feel we have had an incredibly successful launch for the one-year relea...

The new Patron build is available. I'll do a full write-up tomorrow, but I wanted all of you to have the first crack at it.
The biggest changes are the new Cephilusk character and the next batch of story content. I've tried to test it for save-game compatibility, and it -should- ...
2021-09-09 08:28:46 +0000 UTC View PostTo all of the new Patrons, since my last post, very welcome! <3
From time to time, we have polls where you get to shape the game's direction as we advance. I'm happy to announce that this is one of those times.
Before we start, I'd like to apologize in advance for the ra...

It's Friday! That means dev update time!
Let me start by welcoming all the new patrons. All of you are such amazing individuals, and it's so humbling to see people enjoying something you've created! I've always enjoyed working on Infinite Stars, but with all the new faces and sup...
2021-09-03 10:19:20 +0000 UTC View PostI've been spending most of my time this week in preparation for the Itch launch tomorrow, but I wanted to share the build with all of you a day early!
@Infinite Canvas, welcome and thanks for becoming a Patron. I know I said it's a little late to add you to the credits of the current build ...

!! Episode 3 is launching on 1 September 2021 !!
It's been almost a year since the first public release of Infinite Stars, and the more I work on the project, the more I get excited about its future.
It feels like I am finally at a place where Infinite Stars is gettin...

It's Friday! If you still don't know what that means, you haven't been paying attention! :P
A lot of things have been happening in my personal life that will have a positive impact on the future of Infinite Stars. I'm not quite ready to share it with everyone, but I should have s...

Here's the latest devbuild. As always, these are still in active development. It contains scenes without music, sometimes without choices or choice logic etc. It's a compiled version of my latest test build. Stuff might be broken. Saves will be broken.
Another action-packed week filled with Infinite Stars progress!
I've been putting off creating the navigation menu since earlier this year, but I finally sat down and coded it. It works, and my relief is unmeasurable. It was much easier than I anticipated, and I'll be the first t...

2021-08-12 11:50:17 +0000 UTC View PostIt's Friday! (Well, close enough.) That means another Dev Update! And it's a big one!
I've released the first 10 minutes of gameplay from Episode 3 for my patrons. The plan is to chip away at it until the full release is ready for September.
As you know, there were some 2021-08-05 10:08:26 +0000 UTC View Post
It's here. If you are feeling adventurous you can play the first piece (roughly 10 minutes) of Episode 3. I'm pretty sure loading from an older save will crash the game. I'll look into a work around for the full, final release.
I'm excited to share some of our new backgrounds with everyone.
One of the first ones you'll see in the new episode is the shuttle bay, and while I'm working on getting some of the early access released this week, I thought it prudent to take a break and share some design insights with you....
2021-08-02 10:11:19 +0000 UTC View PostHi. This dev update is going to be a bit different from the others. You'll see why.
To Lieutenant Tschjo, my newest Patron, welcome and thank you. You met me at a very strange time in my life.
I'm safe and alive. So is my family. I'm trusting God for our continue...

Highmother Hehlumnabia is one of the newest Cephilusk members you'll meet in Episode 3. She is privy to dark, horrifying truths like the origin of the Uhlikti Terror. Truths that are better left forgotten, forever lost in the past.
But when the lives of our crew members depend on finding th...

2021-06-28 15:14:57 +0000 UTC View PostFive thousand seven hundred ninety-nine words of script written this week. I've been eating, breathing and dreaming Infinite Stars. (That roughly translates to 34 cups of coffee. ROUGHLY. Actual numbers might be higher. It's probably higher. I should drink less coffee.)
I came up for a quic...
2021-06-25 05:17:00 +0000 UTC View PostI'm pretty proud of the progress we've made these past two weeks.
Those close to me will know that we've had to scrap some of the script we wrote several months back. It was disheartening, but the project is better off for it. The good news is in the last two weeks, I've made up for the los...

She is still a work in progress, and Zaph is busy with her clothes and set of expressions. We'll share the final, clothed version with our Patrons soon.
Mentioning Patreon, I would l...
2021-06-04 09:20:07 +0000 UTC View PostJust another update for everyone.
We have made excellent strides with the coding for Infinite Stars, and it feels great to have the pieces come together. We still have tons to do, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel!

Matthias is one of the engineers serving on the UIC Tabitha.
He was blessed with excellent genes that make him look younger than he is, and most people are surprised when they learn he has been working on starships for more than a decade.
Though he doesn't see himself as a clich...

Reyna, or Rey as her friends call her, is one of the communication officers onboard the UIC Tabitha.
While she might not be an extrovert, those that get to know her quickly realize she is as smart as a whip.
Zaph is still busy making some small changes to the line art (mostly her hair...
