Our next big release is coming up fast! As the last post mentions, this release implements Shane as a playable character and realizes our vision of the Fantasy/ History experience split - Shane's adventures focus a lot more on the town of La Grande and its inhabitants, who embody the experiences of the people who lived in that time and place, warts and all. Just as a reminder: You will not be able to access old save files once this release pushes, so finish up anything you want to do now, or don't install the update until you have. This is the message you'll see if you have old files:
What are the next steps for Veil of Dust? Well, in a single word, content. We're going to focus on implementing the remaining 4 romance arcs (Nina, Clara, Arthur and Alysse), which will bring us to the full game as we've envisioned it. After that, we may do some enhancements to features and things like that, but it kind of depend on what happens with sales - We know there's a lot of people that won't touch Early Access games (and I don't blame them - I've bought some EA games that were completely unfun and unplayable) so we're hoping there are some players waiting in the wings for when we leave EA that we'll see convert once that's released. At that point we'll assess how much more we want to commit - We're a two-person team and this is a big game, after all!
