What's up revolutionaries? We have a new update for you!

Our third scene is officially completed, and what better way to celebrate than with another devlog?

Only fifteen left to go! Well... maybe it's better not to think about that number too much. But hey, everything is coming together step by step!

We've also acquired the second track for the game soundtrack. It’s made by the same artist behind the first one since we wanted to maintain voice consistency across the story. This song is especially important to us as it plays during a pivotal scene, and we can’t wait for y'all to hear it.

On top of that, we're currently editing the first draft of the official trailer and planning everything it needs. We'll share more details when the time comes!

Recently, we sent our current build to a tester for some fresh feedback. We listened carefully to the notes and got straight to work on improvements.

One major tweak is related to the longer render sequences. Since the game features extended visual sequences without dialogue, we realized this could feel a bit tedious for players who prefer a faster pace. So, we built a solution: an automatic sequence skip after a set number of seconds!

But don't worry, if you prefer taking it slow, soaking in the views, or analyzing every detail, you can still do that. We’ve added a dedicated toggle setting to turn auto-skip of them ON or OFF.

Now you might be thinking: "Doesn't Ren'Py already have a auto-skip function already?" You're right, but the built-in option skips dialogue too. Constantly toggling it on and off just to skip render sequences without accidentally missing story lines is a pain. With the new feature, you can automatically skip only the visual render sequences while leaving the dialogues completely untouched!

With that said, we hope you enjoy your cycle. And remember, if you want to follow our development progress, see exclusive in-game previews before release, or just chat with us, make sure to join our Discord Server!

Hope you're having a stable cycle, revolutionaries. Another update is here!

We've officially completed scene two, no personal issues on this one, keep your fingers crossed!

We're building a translation system. You'll be able to choose the language for the game's interface (menus, buttons, etc.) and the language for the dialogues separately. Think of it like customizing your own computer. We're starting with:

UI Languages: Spanish, English, and one we still need to figure out.

Dialogue Languages: Spanish, English, Chinese, and more.

With that we would also like to ask you what more languages you think would be worth adding and which one should be the third one for the UI.

We estimate that Act 0 will have 1h-1:30h of playtime depending on your pace and exploration instinct.

We'd love to announce that we've commissioned our first custom track composed and sung by Lina Kay which is a very talented artist! And it's also available on all platforms! You can search it up "Digital Danger - Rendered Revolution" or just click the Spotify link below.

(If you want to experience it fresh in Act 0, maybe hold off until you hear it in-game.)

Hope you're having a stable cycle, revolutionaries. Time for an update.

The slums are taking shape! We are very excited to announce that the first scene is done! We had some personal issues in our way but that won't stop us from creating an amazing universe and story for you.

Numbers, let's talk about numbers, while it is true that this scene took us a while we can gladly say that the scene has 130 renders and... 20 animations! Yes, 20 animations, you didn't misread that. Yes, we decided to go for a more cinematic way for the game, instead of doing only renders and animations in specific scenes, we want to create movement and cinematic sequences throughout the game.

Now, when will act 0 be complete? We still don't have a date for it. Unexpected things happen. Hard work isn't easy, but we're committed. And we still have 17 scenes to go!

But do not panic. We promise to work as hard as we can to ship as soon as possible.

We would also love to announce that Act 0 will be free for everyone! So you can test out the game, discover the slums and decide whether or not you want to continue, which we hope you do.

Alright, enough chatting for now, back to work!

Have a nice cycle.
