Hi friends!
Finally, we've done the necessary preparatory work and can announce the date of our next 'The Library Story' release. So, let's start right away with the main thing:
The release of LS 0.97 for patrons - May 31, 2021
Public Release of LS 0.97 - June 14, 2021
This will be quite a big version, in which we've already invested much efforts (and are gonna invest much more). We planned t...

A good time to take stock of March on 'The Library Story'. Without undue modesty, we can say that we are pleased with the progress in the development of LS v 0.97. We've brought a lot of new content into the game, and we've even refined some of the content that already exists in the game (both in terms of graphics and text). Without going into details, we can say that this stuff is related to Belle... Furthermore, it'ssupposed be a kind of indicator of Gaston's current progress :P. We really hope you enjoy it.

Hello friends!
A small addition to the previous post: we have updated the list and descriptions of support tiers.
Besides, we have to say that we were also asked about levels above $10. Therefore, we added them too, so - welcome guys! ;)
Thanks A LOT for your support and interest to our game! This is worth mentioning, especially in this topic ^__^
About other news: within a few days we plan to announce the release date of LS ...

Hello friends!
As we've already said, we decided to improve the reward system for you, our the finest in the world patrons. We really want to make you sure that those of you who support the project more than others receive something significant from us, and not just a word gratitude. And if you are interested in our project, what might be better reward than the opportunity to influence its development?
Of course, we have our own scenario...

Hello friends!
There is the public release of 'The Library Story' version 0.96.5
This is, first of all, a big sequel of the line with revenge on Emma ("Emma in the Stocks"), in which Betsy takes an active (and quite unexpected!) part! Yes, we continued the story with the mayor's daughter (for whom there are big plans!). This version is very important for the further plot, as well as for the development of Betsy's character. ^__^
Hello friends!
The LS 0.96.5 is released, therefore we would like to:
a) Say big thanks to all of you for your feedback and support, guys, because without you our game would not have happened!
b) Welcome new patrons - stay with us, a lot of interesting things await you! ^^`
c) Well, talk about plans for the future.
We are currently busy with preparing 'The Library Story' version 0.97. As you know, LS 0.96.5 turned out to be less than we planned for objective reasons. But all stuff that we didn't have time to fin...
2021-01-25 10:23:36 +0000 UTC View PostHello friends! Sorry for the prolonged silence. Not the easiest month, but we're working hard for the release LS 0.96.5. There is just a little bit left before the release, so we'll probably get back to work again right now.
Thanks for your support guys! Stay in touch, the release is really soon!

Hello, friends!
It's right time to announce the date of the next version of LS. As you noticed, we make it quite late. But there were reasons to do it this way.
Release date of LS 0.96.5:

Hello friends!
As you probably already noticed, in the latest versions of 'The Library Story', the Hunters Guild's office was located right on the street, under the Central Arch. It was enough to click on the sign to start a dialogue with the Head of the Guild (more precisely, with the acting Head of the Guild Marcel). Of course, this was a temporary solution. After all, the Hunters' Guild occupies an important place in our game. And now it's ...

A week has passed since the release of 'The Library Story' 0.96, and it's time to summarize the results.
First of all, thanks to all of you! We received helpful feedback and useful information that we will use in next releases. Special thanks to those who have increased the level of support, and have just started supporting us. This is really important for us. Among other things, it helps to track the dynamics of the patronage (and yes, we plan to rework the system of bonuses and rewards for those who support our p...

Well, obviously it's time to update our work plan for LS 0.96, therefore, we didn't rack our brains for a long time with the choice of the topic for this post ;).

As soon as we said that we will now publish more LS news, then... We won't go into details, let's just say that August was not the easiest for us. But the main thing is that now we are back to work on our game in full force. And today we have two main topics.
First of all, it is an updated work plan! Yes, it is gradually being accomplished, even if we don't publish it every week. Actually, here:

Work on 'The Library Story' is in full swing, the release date is getting closer...
In the meantime, we'd like to hold a small poll. The thing is that, while porting the game, ideally, it's necessary to make some changes to the interface and some mechanics/functions (for example, highlighting active objects with the mouse is an excellent option, but on mobile platforms this does not work properly...)
But this makes sense only if it is important for a significant number of our patrons.
Of course, it is unli...

Work on LS 0.95 part 2 goes in full swing: texts are being translated, refined by our proofreaders and added into the game.
In the meantime, we'd like to hold a small poll. In our game, we try to add various mini-games (or sometimes small game episodes), which's intended to diversify the gameplay. For example, from the new version 0.95 part 1 you might notice ----stubs---- where the mini-game may appear later. It intends that the player will have to catch Belle and Emma on behalf of the tentacle tree. Somet...

Hello friends!
Work on LS 0.95 is in full swing. Looks like it would be very short news... But we will take a moment and repeat that we are still very looking for Russian-to-English translators!
The thing is that work on translations of LS goes slowly and with difficulties, therefore, if you: 1) know Russian at a level higher than Google translate (this is really important!), 2) you know English well, and also want to help our project - ...

We received some feedback on LS Tentacle-tree edition release. So we decided to gather answers about some repeatative questions in this message. So-called a small Tentacle-FAQ. ^ __ ^
1. It is not all content related to Tentacle-tree in 0.95, but only a part of it (about half).
2. No, it’s not at necessary that Belle deprives virginity precisely of tentacles. This is only one of the possible scen...

Now, while you hopefully have a good rest, we continue working on LS. Texts are in the process of translation and proofreading. Despite the obvious disadvantages, this extra-time can give some benefits. First of all, there is an opportunity to add some stuff that was planned for the next version of the game. Furthermore, as we've already mentioned, there will be the release of a special version of LS 'Tentacle-tree edition' on the 10th of January (for patrons only). The full version LS 0.95 will be released in February, ...

Work on 'The Library Story' ver 0.95 continues at full speed.
And first of all, we'd like to say great thank you to all those who responded and offered their help with translation and proofreading! (of course, objectively, there are much more people who want to help with proofreading than those who could help with the translation... Which is not at all surprising :D.

As you all probably know, there are a lot of texts in our game. Furthermore in the upcoming version 0.95 there will be especially a lot of them. Therefore we need additional translators. Now we are looking for new interpreters, and we strongly need people who are really interested in LS!
So if you are interested in 'The Library Story', would you like to make your special contribution to our project and you are fl...

Sorry for the delay with messages. The thing is that work on LS is in full swing and is along with other things like business trips related to our basic job and real life in general, which does not add free time.
Alongside this, the closer 'The Library Story' 0.95 release, the less we want to show big and spicy spoilers, because it is much better for you to see everything yourself in the game! ^__^

Furthermore, there is a lot of work with tentacle tree now... Well, it’s always difficult with it and it's not a surpeise because it just has a disgusting character. And yes, it will grow in 0.95 even MORE! So Belle will have to be very careful so that no trouble happens... Or pleasant things... It depe...

Of course, the Thief's line will also develop, but probably after release of ver 0.95... And regarding Dick... well, he will definitely get his part i...

Today we'd like to say a couple of words about the main storylines in LS ver 0.95. We plan to touch on this topic in further messages, but for now let's talk about the main three storylines, there was the most amount of questions about, and the development of which you can definitely expect in LS 0.95.
1. Reading room. In previous versions, it was available only for our $5+ patron, but now this storyline is going to become one of the themes for the main plot. Belle will have to really try and sacrifice some of her ...

So, if you could play 'The Library Story' for another main character than Gaston, who would it be? The plot would be definitely changed in accordance with that another character and its background :D. Of course, we are not going to change the main character in ver 0.95 (it’s a pity that today it’s not the 1st of April ^__^).
