Hello, dear players! We come to you with news.

The development of the next update is already approaching the final stage. At the moment we have finished 90% of the images, the text is already being translated, achievements for steam are being implemented, and plans for further updates are being made.

What awaits you?

So, on average the update will take 2-3 hours to complete and will contain quite a lot of visual content:

- 6 new items

- 13 new backgrounds

- 4 new sprites

- 5 full images

- 2 animated NSFW scenes

- Several changes to past images and sprites

In this update, you'll progress through the story, start completing the Elders' tasks, meet a few new characters, and solve a quest or two. We've tried to add some cute moments, some funny moments, and some scary moments. We're eager to see how you'll take them! All in all, the update is not small, and the next one will be about the same size before we finish with the underwater world in update 4.

Planning

We are such planners! :) Actually, we try to do everything as planned, but sometimes something interesting comes to mind and we can't refuse to add it to the game. But it's not just about cool features, it's about harmonious gameplay. Here we have an underwater half of the chapter, which we divided into 4 parts. It's good to competently distribute 18+ scenes, mini games and so on, but because of the long development time this thin thread of understanding what and where it should be. So, the first update was short and “introductory”, where there was nothing at all (no choices, no games, no NSFW scenes), the second one will be much bigger, but still without mini games and a couple of 18+ scenes. The third release will be already with all the games and more NSFW scenes, and 4 again not very big and no mini-games. I guess if you play the completed version there won't be any weird feelings, but at the moment we feel it like this - crooked and inconsistent.

The plot, the images, the music

As previously stated, Fabian is growing as a person. Now he finds himself in a place unknown to him with no help from his crew or artifacts. To some extent, we realize that judging by the in-game time, Fab has only been captain for nothing - maybe since a month. But that's still a convention, so don't scold us for the fact that he transforms rather quickly. It's fantasy! :) It won't be long before he realizes what he really is and who he is without his suit. You will have to solve the problems of the sea inhabitants, but also do not forget about your goal - to find artifacts. Although... Fabian will have to face a different point of view on all these gods. Can anything shake his desire to achieve fame and fortune?

The artists have done a fine job. Agree - the underwater world even in reality is enchanting and magical, and with the addition of the artist's imagination it turns into an unimaginable place! We studied a lot of references, read about sea creatures (yes, yes, the development of adventure NSFW game is also a study of the necessary topics), and we got these landscapes:

Also, we've been thinking about animating backgrounds and regular artwork. We will try, and if there will be no problems with the realization, then who knows, maybe we'll animate sprites as well? Or maybe it's better to make a movie right away? Ha-ha!

But what is important, although sometimes underestimated in the task of content perception? Music! Completing the synergy of text and images is the right atmosphere, which is created by music and sound effects. We've written about 5 tunes that should evoke the right feeling and mood for you during the walkthrough. We will be very much waiting for your feedback!

And traditionally a few spoilers:

Pirates, thank you very much for your support and attention to the game! You are our backbone! We do everything to make you enjoy and be happy! Kisses and goodbyes to the developer diaries until release!
