Hi everyone! This is Tymedust reporting to you, all the awesome people who have given this game a chance by buying it here on Steam. Currently we've got a Summer sale going on, so be sure to spread that around if you have any friends who might be interested in taking the plunge. :) And now, some very fun news... check this out! [previewyoutube=skb6bNKmmJw;full][/previewyoutube] Isobel Salvie seems to have everything; youth, beauty, wealth... unfortunately, none of that matters much when you're dead, poisoned by an unknown person for equally unknown reasons. Arriving in Heaven, Isobel is greeted by God herself. All seems well, because as it turns out, Paradise is wonderful. However, the afterlife's pleasures don't come for free... Poetry in Purgatory is a unique, ever-evolving story about what it means to live, love and make peace with things you can't run away from... even when you may desperately want to. Experience the prologue, full first act and the entire Bliss Alwes character route in version 0.1 of the game. And then be sure to check back regularly as the game receives frequent updates, adding new routes and story content for free! Don't worry, there will be no need to replay old content for returning players. --- That's right, Pitstop in Purgatory is getting a standalone sequel - Poetry in Purgatory - and in fact... it's out NOW on itchio. Well, kinda. You see, we're going episodic this time around, or rather... incorporating a sort of live service feel to it (although for a single-player game, of course). :) The game is absolutely free, as will all the many upcoming content updates be. Then, once it's eventually completed, it will get a full retail release (Steam included, of course). Until then, however, you're more than welcome to join our journey by checking out the game in its current state. We're very excited about working with the community to make this game as special as it possibly can be! As before, we're entirely self-financing this project, based solely on our passion for the universe we're creating. So if you enjoy our work, consider visiting our Patreon where you can help us in development while also receiving some real cool benefits! But enough talk, [strike]have at you[/strike] here's the current game features:

• Play your way! Commit fully to the story or partake in as many character routes as you desire, and watch as their outcomes change the main narrative in meaningful ways.
