Hi there! Betetiro here. I want to thank everyone for the support I've received and for the valuable feedback on my game. There are still some unresolved issues that are taking more time to test and implement, so I'll be back with updates on those unresolved matters soon. So, what are the changes? - The secret ending has been removed, and the script has been slightly modified. I received a lot of feedback concerning the secret ending and the game in general. I realize that I've made mistakes. After speaking with individuals who have experienced the mental health issues discussed in the game, I've revised the script to be more sensitive and accurate. I apologize for the initial decision to include that content, and without your feedback, I wouldn't have realized the impact. I am grateful that you guided me to the right decision. - Bugs in the Ukrainian version: there were issues with taking screenshots, and problems with the automatic self-voicing in the history section. - Minor errors in both Ukrainian and English translations. There's still a long road ahead, and I'm grateful for the feedback you've provided. The major issues I am now aware of include: - Voicing problems (volume, line cut-offs) - Typos that need correction to improve the text - Issues with the music looping - Lastly, I would like to implement some features suggested by the community. I hope to announce these soon. Thank you again for your support, and I truly hope you have a wonderful day!

Hi! Betetiro here. So, Hazy Mind has been released, and you can now purchase it, which is cool, right? I want to thank everyone who supported me throughout this journey. I am really glad that some of you liked the game. It means a lot to me and offers unparalleled support.

So, what's next after the release?

I will definitely patch the game. There are some minor mistakes in both the Ukrainian and English versions of the game. I'll work on it, and after a few days of work, I'll release a minor patch. There are also some things I want to implement.

What about other languages?

I'm currently working with PrismaLoc, and we will do our best to add new languages to the game. If anything happens, I'll keep you updated and announce the new languages.

New projects?

It's safe to say that releasing my first game and receiving so much support from you has been a fantastic experience. It may not be the greatest game, I think, because it was my first attempt and I was learning as I went. I aimed to create something truly meaningful, and I hope that comes through in my work. Still, I've received a lot of feedback from streamers, and I want to thank everyone who streamed my game and shared their feedback! There's definitely a long road ahead for me to create other games and improve with each one. But I'll do my best, and if I have something to show, I'll share it! So, that's all for now. Thank you again, and please continue to share any feedback about mistakes here. I'll greatly appreciate it.

Hi!! I am Betetiro, the creator of Hazy Mind, and I am thrilled to announce that Hazy Mind will be released on March 4!! It has definitely been a long road, with its own challenges, but I am very excited to release it soon. The original plan was to release it in February, however, we encountered some issues, and therefore the release date was slightly postponed. This was a unique experience and a great opportunity to meet all the wonderful people who supported me.

What are features of Hazy Mind?

- 35k words, 7 endings - Secret ending with an explanation - Amazing English and Ukrainian voiceovers with the help of Lauren Kong, who voiced Morana in the English version, and Levente Tarr, who voiced the Demon in the English version. For the Ukrainian version: MeulinUwU voiced Morana, and Oleksandr Ometsinskyi (Omen_sky) voiced the Demon. These people are amazing, and I am forever grateful for their help. Thank you. - Japanese and Turkish translations are currently available, but I will add more languages with future patches. A big thank you to nicolith for the Japanese translation, and to Arda zkurt and Anl Ylmaz for the Turkish translation. Thank you. As you may have noticed, since the first announcement, I've added a bit more content, which is why it took a little more time. So, we are waiting until March 4, and I wish you a great day. Thank you for supporting me all the way. It really matters. Thanks. I really hope you will like it. If you have any feedback or something important to share, you can also write to me at email: betetirowork@gmail.com. Also, check out the works of the amazing artists and testers who created fan art for the game Artist: Kami in silence contemplates the heavens

Hi there! Betetiro here. I've got some great news we've completed the localizations for the Turkish and Japanese versions! It's really exciting because now people from all around the world can enjoy our game, thanks to our amazing volunteers! [h4]I'm incredibly thankful for their help. The Turkish translation was done by Arda zkurt and Anl Ylmaz. The Japanese translation was done by nicolith.[/h4] Currently, I'm integrating the Japanese translation into the game, while the Turkish and English versions are all set. Sounds cool, doesnt it? I thought so too. Now, let's talk about what we've achieved and the challenges we've faced. Our testers discovered quite a few bugs during testing, both major issues and minor errors. It took a considerable amount of time to address and fix these, as I want to ensure you have a flawless gaming experience and am committed to not releasing the game before its ready. Initially, I was optimistic about a mid-January release, but as I sit here, I realize my caution about potential bugs and issues was warranted. Therefore, the game is now set to be published in February. I hope this doesn't disappoint you; I'm doing my best to deliver the game as soon as possible! I cant specify an exact release date right now, as I don't want to commit to a date and then potentially face delays due to unforeseen errors. Rest assured, I will announce the date once the game is fully polished and ready with all the promised localizations. I've also added some fun achievements and have already tested them! And yeah, watch this
[h4]I really wish I could publish the game as soon as possible and see your feedbackI truly do![/h4] Oh, and I almost forgot to mention that I've added new endings. Now, there will be 7 endings in total, plus 1 secret ending (which you'll unlock after completing the 5 most crucial endings) that will explain the game and what I really wanted to share with you through this story. So, I guess this is goodbye for now, but I'll definitely be back next time with the release date. Your support inspires me to keep going and not give up. I'm so grateful for everyone who's waiting for the game. I'm also looking forward to hearing your feedback. Hope to see you soon! Thank you, and have a great day. Take care, and I wish you all the best! (Here are also some screenshots from the localizations steamhappy)

Hey everyone, it's betetiro here! Big thanks for all the lovely messages about our release date. You guys are awesome and your support means the world to me. However, we're facing some issues with localization, and I'm concerned that some of the languages listed on the page might not be available at release. I plan to hire a translator post-release to ensure these languages are eventually added.

Currently, we're experiencing difficulties with the Japanese translation. I know there are many wishlists from Japan, and I apologize that I haven't been able to find a volunteer translator for it. I am really sorry.

As many of you know, I launched a Kickstarter to fund the project, but unfortunately, it was unsuccessful. I'm unable to pay for professional translation services at this time and I'm sorry to share this disappointing news. I don't want to release a poor translation, but if you're okay with a machine-translated version, despite potential errors, I might consider publishing it. I would really appreciate your feedback or comments on this.

If anyone is willing and able to volunteer for translating into Japanese, it would be greatly appreciated. If you're interested in helping, please email me at betetirowork@gmail.com

Regarding the other languages listed on the page, we have several volunteers who have agreed to help, and I am immensely grateful to them. Their names will be included in the credits. I'll keep you all posted on any more localization updates, and I'll be back soon with the exact release date. Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to your feedback in the comments. Have a fantastic day!

Hi there! I'm betetiro, the one behind Hazy Mind. Super excited to tell you that we're almost done with the full release! We've finished about 85% of it, and the release date is just around the corner! I'm thinking we might wrap up by mid or end of January 2024. Could be February too, if we run into bugs or other issues, but that's the plan! Oh, and I've just updated the trailer on our page. Have you seen it yet? If not, check it out here: [previewyoutube=2x-oWwQ8Obc;full][/previewyoutube] Would love to hear what you think, so drop a comment or hit the like button! The full game will have 20k words, a mini-game, and 5 different endings. Sounds cool, right? I thought so! Sorry for not posting many updates here. I'll fix that and keep you in the loop with every step towards our release. Also, come join our Discord server. We're a friendly bunch and love sharing memes!
