I’m making an inventory system with separate controls for two hands. 🍷 What do you think?

I was fixing a bug with camera controls here… Does this blow your mind? Anyway, it’s weird. 🫠

That exact feeling when you get stuck between walls; oh, those game collisions 🙂

Midweek devlog: core tech and iteration speed improved early this week, then momentum moved into design definition work as we translate an economy-first vision into concrete player actions and the first functional in-game UI. Meanwhile the desk stays chaotic: water, snacks, loose docs and the bulky teleprompter for daily calls. I have an office but for Highroads most work happens here.

Weekly Development Progress Update

Development is moving forward at full speed, and if everything goes according to plan, the Beta version should be released sometime next week.

As we mentioned before, this update will include another panties scene, leaving only two remaining on our roadmap, one of which is planned for the update that follows this one. Yes, we're getting closer to completing that collection.

Story-wise, if you've been keeping an eye on the sketches in our gallery, you probably already know which character this update focuses on. Her storyline will reach a temporary conclusion, a satisfying milestone for now. Of course, this doesn't mean her journey is over forever, but we'll be stepping away from her for a while since her arc is currently in a very comfortable place.

So... what comes next?
A Chloe update is practically inevitable. There isn't a month that goes by without players asking us to continue her story, and trust us, we hear you. We're carefully considering how to move her development forward without breaking the narrative path we've built so far. We can't just jump straight into the action out of nowhere; that would undermine everything that makes her story special. So yes, she will progress in future updates, but in a way that feels natural, playful, and just a little mischievous.

It's also about time we start opening the door to that mysterious house... and finally discover what that red light really is. That storyline is already partially developed, but we needed to prepare the right stage first. More information on that will come soon.

What else is coming?
This update will introduce two new characters, both requested by our Patreon supporters. Alongside them, we still have pending story development for Kallen, and we'll finally begin advancing Rati's storyline. Up to now, she's the only main character who hasn't received any major progression, mostly because she tends to rank lower in community polls, but it's time to give her a moment in the spotlight.

In the next few days, we'll be announcing the official Beta release date. We're currently finishing just a handful of images and part of one new character's story, which shouldn't take more than a few days before the advanced version is ready.

Thank you all for your patience, and especially for the constant support from our Patreon community. You're the reason this game continues to grow. Stay tuned... things are about to get very interesting.
