Hello everyone! It's been a while since my last Steam update, and as always, the reason is my busy schedule. Im still working alone and have to balance game development with my main job, which takes up a lot of valuable time. However, the project is moving forward! Right now, Im actively working on Act 3. About Act 3 This will be the most ambitious act so far:
- Free movement with major events,
- Character relationship development,
- Deeper character backstories and lore.
- Writing scenes and dialogues,
- Rendering artwork and animations,
- Creating and refining locations,
- Writing game code.
Thank you for your support! Thanks to you, this project continues to grow and evolve! Woundead PATREON BOOSTY

I fixed a bug where the audio track was missing in one of the scenes. Also, when starting a new game, the main menu music would continue playingthis has been fixed as well. Minor spelling corrections.

A new app has been added to the phone, Notes. Now you can trace the dossiers of the characters you meet during the story.
In order for the notes in your phone to become available, you need to replay the game. This can be done either from the beginning or from the second act. The data will be downloaded automatically. If you don't want to replay the game, the notes will become available with the release of the third act.

Here it is, the long awaited release!
Act 2: Dead End is available now!
All you need to do is update your game! Congratulations to everyone on this event! Honestly, I'm incredibly excited. I've put a lot of hard work and time into this Act. I hope it doesn't disappoint you. I will duplicate again the content of Act 2: 2,423 renders (not counting renders for eventing during free movement) 71 animations 35 new music tracks (including a few of my own) 36 new sound effects Significantly improved image quality compared to Act 1. Let me also remind you about the translation. I would like to ask you to give feedback on its quality. On this will depend on further cooperation with this translator. It's been months of hard work, at times very exhausting due to my main job. Unfortunately, I don't yet have the financial ability to completely quit my job to focus solely on game development. But hopefully that opportunity will come soon. I would like to thank everyone who has played my game. I thank everyone who supports my hard work. I am immensely grateful to the patrons who have supported, are supporting, or will continue to support me and my projects.
Due to my constant busyness, it is difficult for me to respond to all the messages that come in. I feel terribly bad about leaving someone out, but I can't do it any other way. I apologize for this. Thanks again to each and every one of you! I wish you an enjoyable game! Woundead P.S. Subscribe to my social media to stay up to date with news!

Hey, everybody!
We're just a little bit away from release. So I want to share the content/statistics of the game.
The second act has a lot of branches. It's impossible to watch them all in one playthrough. I've added some puzzles (if you can call it that) that will require attentiveness. Added a social network, content in which, will be updated as you progress through the game.
The game itself contains:
2,423 renders (not counting renders for eventing during freeroaming)
71 animations
35 new music tracks (including a few of my own)
36 new sound effects
Significantly improved image quality compared to Act 1.
Professional English translation.
I really ask you to give feedback on the translation. The service cost me quite a bit of money, so I want you to give your feedback on the work done by the translator. This will determine whether I will continue working with him, or whether I will have to find someone else.
I'm still finalizing some minor details that are more related to visuals, but not much at all.
Looking back I realize that a lot of work has been done. I learned a lot and made some important discoveries for myself.
And already now I realize what I want to add new things in the next acts.
I'm still an amateur beginner. But the passion for creating is being fueled more and more
Showcasing your work is always exciting. Especially when the expectations of others are placed on you. So the last few days will be very exciting for me.
A little bonus. Hanna's Halloween wallpapers.
You can find these and other wallpapers (and NSFW) in the game if you try.

Well, here we are. This is the finish line. But it does not symbolize the end, but rather the beginning.

will be released on
11/15/2024.
A huge thank you to everyone who has supported me and continues to support me. Congratulations to everyone who has been waiting for the story to continue (including myself)! It's done. I really urge you to add the game to your vishlist if you haven't already. It will help tremendously in promoting the game. I'll put up another post with stats about the game's content before release. And will share my thoughts and impressions on the development of this act. The countdown is on. Don't miss it!

Greetings everyone, it's time for news on the progress of Act 2.
All the news today will be positive, which I'm very happy about. I hope you are too.
I have completely finished creating the animations for the hot scenes. Because of that, the development speed has increased significantly. Now I'm fully focused on rendering the art for the story itself.
And, I hasten to tell you, there's not much rendering left to do.
Yes, there is still code writing, post-processing, beta-testing, translation (I'll tell you more about it below), but it will all be done much faster, unlike rendering. So I can see a horizon for completion of the work. I can't give any release date for Act 2 yet, but I think it will be possible soon. Don't miss it!
Now about the translation.
I know that the translation of Act 1 is far from perfect, That's why I asked a professional English translator. Yes, the second act will be released with a good translation. After the release of act 2, there will be a normal translation of act 1 as well.
I have some issues with the mini-games, but I'm sure I will definitely solve them before release.
These are the main aspects I wanted to share with you.
Well, and traditionally:

Hello, my friend! It's time to share the news. I won't take too long.
First of all, I decided to finish the animations for the hot scenes. At the moment 60 animations are ready. I need to do ~7 more, and a few animations that don't involve smutty scenes.
Creating animations, as well as processing them, always takes up most of my work time, so I decided to focus on that initially.
Made and processed 1012 static story frames, plus frames for minigames and free movement. Some sprites I drew from a complete 0, that takes time too.
Writing the story code, working out the branching.
Text/dialog adjustments.
At the moment the game is ~50% done.
A lot of time was spent on rendering animations. And since I have only one computer, rendering slows down the process of working on the game a lot. But the main thing is that the development does not stand still.
As soon as I finish with animations, the process should speed up a bit.
That's it for now. You can describe the processes infinitely much, but I will limit myself to only the important aspects.
At the moment on my Patreon page there is another voting for the girl of the month. We are choosing a beauty for 4k wallpaper. The winner will receive an SFW and NSFW illustration. It will be two different frames, not the same one where the heroine is stupidly naked.

Greetings, everyone! I would like to share with you the current state of development of the second act of REBORN and news in general.
Here I will tell you a little about myself and the work process itself. If you're not interested, you can skip this paragraph and go straight to the news about the game itself, which is below. As you already know, I'm doing the development completely on my own. All processes (plot, framing, staging, rendering, animations, writing code, and more) I do by myself and it takes a lot of time. When I started developing the game, I had no experience in this business at all. At the moment I am combining game development with my main job, because I don't have any outside funding. The first act is entirely self-funded. I try to optimize the process and work without weekends (literally), so that the time between act releases is as short as possible. I absolutely love what I'm doing and I'm not going to stop.
Now for Act 2
The script for Act 2 is completely scripted, including dialog and all event branches. A lot of new locations were created, which also took time. Made 619 static renders of the story itself and 28 animations. Partially written code. Now in addition to all this I am working on creating full mini-games. At the moment Act 2 is ~25% complete I've also managed to improve the graphics considerably. No more graininess. I'll attach a few frames below so you can see for yourself.
I chose these shots to avoid spoilers. You will meet a lot of new characters in Act 2. They are also elaborated and have their own character and story. I am still learning and improving my skills, so you will see their growth as the game progresses. Due to constant busyness, it's hard for me to post content here often. If you want to stay up to date and get the latest news, then subscribe to me on social media and platforms. It will help me tremendously in the development of the game. Best regards.
