It's Lunar New Year, and for the first time ever I'm commemorating it with my friends and maybe we will throw some salad! I'm excited about the year of the snake, I feel this will be a good one for everyone, no matter the previous news we shared with you guys here.
Let's hope to post this for the next 12 years and complete the whole cycle of VvtZ Zodiacs represented by the Chinese wheel! In other news about what we're planning for this year ahead:
We opened a Patreon that will bring a lot more light on our world's lore and how we do game development, so if you're interested in the stories of our games and in starting your game development career this year (or maybe you're a game developer already!), there'll be load of relevant information about our journey and also tutorials!

PATREON LINK HERE

We started last week showcasing some unrevealed concept artworks of Keylocker's areas never seen before, and also a how to make an rpg in 10 days tutorial by Anglerman, and we plan to bring way more content weekly for patrons.

Story:

| Saturn, Anno 801. |
| Music is banned for 141 years now. |
B0B0 is one of the Doppelgangers, twins born as perfect human beings fit to obey the purpose of the caste they were assigned to. Her purpose is to serve in the lowest caste for the prosperity of Saturn, but B0B0 doesn't quite agree to that. Amidst a revolution against the Saturnian Satellites, the ultimate form of law, B0B0 hears news of a newfound music robot that'll fit right in her illegal band as a drummer. Rebelling against the corrupt system using music is the only thing she knows how to do well and she only needed a drummer to join her pack of misfits. With every piece in place, she's out to break some laws, and discover the truth behind the essence of music, the Keylocker.
