Hello friends.
Sorry for long silence. Lately I had a tonsillitis (with a temperature of up to 39.3°C), but I hope that now everything will go well. This is the main reason why we didn't release 'IQ Dungeons' this month:(
In any case, in the nearest days, when I (hopefully) will recover a little, we will announce the release dates both - 'IQ Dungeons' (I'd venture to say in advance that it will be 100% April... this year, of course)), and 'Library Story' 0.9 (here we have to discuss some details with Latissa).
Thank you for ...

Hello friends!
Well, that's a right time to sum up the results of the last poll about the Library Story. So, we have an absolute winner - storyline, the continuation of which you'd want to see first! And this is - 'Magic bra and bimbofication of Belle'! Of course, you will see in ver 0.9 the continuation of this story. We suppose that you'll be really surprised by a some twists and unexpected turns in this story! :D
But also many of you voted for the 'Tentacles tree and Belle's entertaining gardening'. ...

Hello, friends!
So, we’ve tried the combat.
We’ve discussed the combat.
We understood, that we won’t figure out how to polish the combat in separation from the rest of the game.
And we’ve postponed the combat (as it is for now) and started to put together the main part of the game.
What is coming now is the routine. Compilation, testing, minor fixes here and there.
So, the next press release will be next week. And it will consist of a dull list of the things done.
But on the other hand, we have the art ...

Hello, guys.
Firstly.
Today we gonna make an intermediate version (only for us) for testing of the combat system.
It will be damnably important testing!
So that, no later than Wednesday or Thursday, we will report you about the results.
Second.
Many of patrons often ask: if there would be different versions for patrons and others?
Yes, a little.
For patrons we'll add:
1) Painted endings. Actually there will be several endings. (all of them will be in the ordinary version of game but withou...

Hello guys!
So, finally it's time to announce the winners of our Festive Lottery! As you remember, this event was held on two pages - Latissa's and mine. Twice more winners - twice more prizes! ^_^
But let's get down to business. The number on my page was: 417
And we have a winner, who exactly wrote it!
This is:
R Hodgson!
He has an unique opportunity - add to the Library Story any character of his own choice (of course, it would be agreed with us). Congrats!!!

Hello, friends!
First of all I want to apologize for the fact that lately I write quite rare on Patreon. I know that it hardly consoles you , but my schedule now looks mostly as follows: the work - the work over IQ - and "hey, it's already damned 4 a.m., I have to get some sleep..." Next day this cycle repeats. And yes, if I did not respond to your e-mail or comment - so that's because of that. I'll try to mend. Thank you for understanding!
Now, regarding "IQ Dungeons". We did a big job. As you remember we've planned release still befor...

No matter how hard we tried (and we tried hard!) to finish IQ Dungeon this month (or, to be precise, last year), but no!
Here it is, the painstaking piece of the game, it's playable, and we surely want to parade it around! But no! Still more polishing, bug catching, testing, make everything pretty and solid. And only then we'll parade it.
And right now, the only good thing is comparing the amount of work done, to what's left to do!
The sooner the better!
P.S. Will we learn a lesson from this? A lesson in not...

Well, now's the time to take stock of the poll... until the start of Christmas and holidays :)
And... dramatic pause... Huh, well, there is no need of any pauses at all because there is no intrigues haha... So... the most of votes are for option number 2! Therefore we will prepare for release of ver 0.9, skipping intermediate version 0.85. Of course, all innovations, which were planned for version 0.85, you will see in 0.9. Don't forget also about bonus scenes with Betsy and Belle.
All in all, we hope that in the new y...

Today is good time for a new poll about LS! You can directly impact on the content of the game - more exactly, on additional episode in ver. 0.9. And so - with what character you would like to see additional scene (of course, apart from the scenes, we've already thought out)?
Options:
1. Belle
2. Emma
3. Betsy
Surely, for each character we already have a kind of draft , but let it would be a secret for you (here may be a small hint: a...

So. It’s time to report on the work progress for our "small" addition to "Iris quest." On the damned “Dungeons”! For simplicity’s sake, we decided to compare what has been done with what needs to be done, and to put it is some form of approximate percentage.
1) Gameplay. 80%. Everything is moving (sometimes even where it needs to move), blinking, and doesn’t crash every minute. All that remains is to finish the AI, add one other game mechanic as well as, of course, to clean up the large but rare glitches and a bunch of s...

1. Version 0.82 is now almost ready. It remains to correct, and catch up a few bugs. And yes, we continue to take your reports (including logs and saves) about crashs of the game and other errors on xaljiox@gmail.com. The more we fix now, the fewer bugs will go into the next version. Possibly, in this version there will be a special option in the settings for those who have issue with displaying dialog boxes. We know that some graphics cards have prob...

It is really inspiring us so much, so we'll try to do our best and even more . ^_^

If at the last moment there will not be found some kind of horrible bugs, we'll release LS 0.8 before the end of the 28th.

A small report about LS. Now we are engaged in work over the interface - primarily on the journal of quests and events. We hope this element in our game will greatly improve game process. We had several options of how to do quest log, in the end we chose the one that we like the most (this time, without a poll, sorry, guys, should we decide something themselves, in the end;)). But after receiving feedback on v.0.8, we will probably add some changes. Also, we are working now over crafting and alchemy menu. So... most of our...

Hi guys!
It's time to tell you how things are with the LS.
1) Thanks to all who took part in the poll! Most of you voted for the second option (to change outfits just in the status window and dialogs sprites), and many patrons wished the gradual transition from the second variant to the third (to add the whole change of outfits in all big scenes later. For example, in 'LS GE')... Well, friends, it's not surprisingly and we'll surely take it into account!
2) Now we write some new quests and events. For example, with Liz...

Work over the 'Library Story' is in full swing! Now we are engaged in the system of changes of Belle's appearance depending on her parameters. Different breasts size, clothing, hairstyle, etc. This is a very interesting part of the game, but we are faced with quite predictable problem.
The fact is that if we change Belle's appearance in each scene, then it will take a long time for repainting of all this scenes. More exactly - veeery looong time. :D. And the more episodes will be added into the game, the more repainti...

I'm currently working actively on LS and IQ. Some things are turned out more slowly than I expected. But the progress with our games on the whole is rather good.
And now we would like to ask your opinion about the mechanics of interactive scenes for LS! (night scene in the bedroom Belle, books selection in the library and other like) Now mechanics are working this way: there are different chances of success of some Gaston's actions to Belle and it depends directly on Gaston's and Belle's parameters.
