Hey everyone! It’s been a whole month since our public release, and we thought that we should update everyone on our future plans for this game. We were completely blown away by the reaction to the build, and we're just so happy people have been giving our a game a shot! Thank you to everyone who’s joined us on our journey, whether you’re an old hat who’s been around since the very beginning, or if you just joined us on our adventure.
First, let’s talk about technical fixes. As with any release, the game is not without its bugs or without room for improvement. We’re happy to say that we’ve received a lot of good feedback, and released a build with the following changes:
- Players are able to choose their name
- There's now a minimap button to better navigate the ship
- Hallways were reworked for better navigation
- Removal of unnecessary interactions
We decided to release this build publicly with these changes, and our first content update (the Cyberia Update) will be in 1-2 months with earlier builds for patrons to test features.
Next, let’s talk about our content plan and how our updates will work from here on out. We plan on implementing a tick tock update scheme. In other words, we’ll alternate minor and major updates each month. Every major update will be an additional new part to the story with all the bells and whistles that go with it, including new art, CGs, NSFW scenes, and story progression. Each minor update will be focused on bugfixes, QoL improvement, additional content that may not have made it in before, and other miscellaneous things that might have slipped through the cracks. So, since our big public release was in February, our next release will be a minor patch in March, before having a major update in either April or May.
And now for the really exciting part: a sneak preview of our next planet, Cyberia! It’s cold, it’s snowy, and it just might be hiding a secret underneath all that ice…
The Cyberia update will introduce a new character, Elsie! She's a little mysterious and a lot fierce. We hope you're excited to learn more about her very soon!
Before we end things off, we’d also like to remind everyone that a perk of being a patron is our monthly pinups! These are high-quality works of art done by our in-house artist. Previously, we’ve featured characters like Melenia from Elden Ring, Jinx from League of Legends, and many others besides. Look out for more lewd art coming your way, and we do take suggestions for future pinups as well. We're currently more than halfway done with the Dehya pinup, and our higher tier patrons can see the WIP sketches a bit early!
Again, thank you all for sticking around, and we hope you continue to play and enjoy Cyber Rift! Please let us know of any feedback you might have either here or via our Discord; we’re always trying to make the game better.
