We’ll start off with the statement we don’t love making but we feel is necessary: We have decided to delay the release of Chapter 3 to the end of 2025. Our main goal has always been to deliver the best version of our game we can, and we have found that was not possible within the timeframe we had originally set for ourselves. The last thing we want is to deliver a rushed, unpolished chapter that doesn’t match our expectations nor yours. For this reason we are still keeping the exact date somewhat vague until we feel confident to make the launch happen, and you’ll be the first to know when we set one. 

While we are just as impatient as you guys to play the next chapter and we apologize for making the wait even longer, we know this is the best call right now. 

That being said, we want to emphasize how much your words of support mean to us. At times, the guilt to write these types of posts hits us so hard that we do everything we can to avoid making any kind of announcement until it’s inevitable, but then we read your messages where you guys are like “no worries, just don’t stress too much” and we’re like… yeah, we overdid it. 

So, right now, we’re dialing it down and going back to the things we love the most: making this a game we love and sharing silly behind-the-scenes stuff with you guys.

Speaking of, here are some answers to some questions you’ve asked through different community platforms:

Q-For a question, I just wanted to ask how you went on about creating the first bones of the game? Did you already have a rough story outline done, or are you going more with the flow?

A-Gizmo, the writer, here. I usually answer this by saying I wrote the whole story for SoP in one day and presented it to Grogu, the artist, and then continued to flesh out the details for each chapter as we went on. If I were to go more into detail, each chapter is usually divided into 4 scenes at the beginning, then 3 scenes for each path. There are ‘main events’ that should take place in these scenes which have been, as you put it, roughly outlined from the beginning, but I like to leave room for ‘whatever happens’ when I sit down to write so I can surprise myself. I also like to leave important details out even to Grogu to keep things fun sometimes.

Q-How about a random Amy/Becca fact?

A-Amy used to look at every picture on Becca’s instagram religiously. Becca hasn’t worn her natural hair color since September 27th, 2008. Also, Amy has megalophobia and Becca always mispronounces the word serendipity. None of these facts will be addressed in SoP (probably?). 

Q-Have you guys decided what story you will most likely work on after SoP?

A-There’s a few ideas we like, but it’s too soon to say for sure. Our main focus is still on working on stories and ways of storytelling we’d like to see more of on AVNs but haven’t found yet, so we want to try our own hand at it. And that ranges from things thematically similar to SoP to wilder ones like horror stories.  

Q-Will we see the return of some good old dulce the leche?

A-Of course ;)
