Roadmap Progress - September 2021
Fans will be happy to know that we have a fully running Linux version now, with only some minor issues that are being ironed out. This runs in a newer version of NodeJS (the Windows release will do this also) meaning that performance is much improved over, for example, the Windows release running via Proton. Naturally, this is also the version of NALE that will take the game onto the upcoming Steam Deck! We're not quite ready to release this yet but I think we're at a point where it's safe to confirm it is coming, just a question of when. We'll update you once we have a date.
Due to updates to MacOS, RPG Maker MV is deprecating its Mac support, which affects the editor, but will soon have a knock-on effect on the games themselves. https://forums.rpgmakerweb.com/index.php?threads/regarding-future-rpg-maker-mv-macos-support.139708/ Up until now, NALE hasn't had full Mac support (just the demo of Chapter 1 over on indie services, not Steam), but we had intended to support the platform in the future if revenue made it viable (we needed to purchase a Mac for development & testing). The immediate result of this is that we will be removing the Mac version of the Chapter 1 episodic version of the game from itch.io, to prevent giving the false impression that future NALE content may appear on the platform. We will not be releasing future versions of NALE for Mac OS, unless the above situation changes. We're sad to have to announce this, but at the same time, we want to be clear for those of you who were waiting for this (as several of you have asked in the past).
Progress continues on the art update for v5, that will add character busts for Anya Miller & Judge Tawny. We've almost finished the base images for Anya in 1 costume, and are well on-target to produce the rest. We'll update fans once we have more to show on this.
Thanks for reading this! We're looking forward to the v5 release, and will give you a date once we have one.

When Nina Aquila, freshly qualified defense attorney, takes part in her last supervised trial, she sets events in motion that will cause her career to become a casualty of a secret war. A great game is being played for the heart of Fledge City by the ruthless and powerful, one that Nina will have to uncover one case at a time.
Step into court and defend a young woman cosplaying as a fire mage, who stands accused of arson! In this trial, Anya will show you the ropes of how NALE works, while setting events in motion that will change Nina's life forever.
Several weeks after Chapter I, Nina's life is in turmoil after a costly defeat in court. Her confidence shattered, Nina holes up in her office until a visitor comes to the door - one who believes that only she can help him. A murder has been committed at the High Flyers Casino. The victim? A celebrity player of a trading card game, "Dragon Fantasy Arena", on the eve of the national tournament!
Who would commit murder over a children's card game? And why?
Surrounded by hot-blooded heroes and dastardly cosplaying villains, Nina will need all her cunning if she's to make the best of a bad draw... Or her client's going to be sent to the graveyard!
Following on from Chapter II, Nina and Dylan have been looking into the events surrounding a key trial and arrest, but the volume of evidence is huge, and weeks have already passed without any leads. Still, Aquila Defense & Law is a business, and when a person calling himself "The Jack of Diamonds" comes to the door in the middle of the night, Nina and Dylan are forced to take up his case.
Something is wrong up in the mountains. Shockwaves are ringing through the world of Fledge City's illegal street racing scene: Clara Mass, longtime racer and "The Ace of Spades" has been murdered during a race, and several other racers stand accused of the crime! The fragile truce between the street racing groups is being stretched to breaking point, and police involvement threatens to end mountain road racing once and for all!
Now, Nina and Dylan must journey north of the streets of Fledge City to the snow-covered passes of The Rostro Spire, the tallest mountain in the region, to search for answers amid the high-octane sub-culture of Touge Janken Racing...
