Hello Travelers!
Before all else, thank you so so so much for all the great support and reactions you've been giving us for Episode 2. It makes all our work worth it when we see such a warm reception - and it motivates us to push ourselves even further to make this whole experience as amazing for you as it's been for us.
Episode 3 is already under wraps, but we took a short break from working on it to bring you these exciting news...
*
Firstly, starting on February we'll be opening two new tiers on Patreon: Mercenary and Space Pirate! They'll cost, respectively, $20 and $25, and will have the following one-time benefits:
Mercenary: Short story (minimum of 500 words) of up to two chosen characters (one can be your OC), sent by email.
Space Pirate: Sketch portrait of your OC with a chosen character, sent by email.
These tiers will be one-time benefits, meaning we ask you to please downgrade after receipt to whichever tier you were on before. They will also have a predefined amount of slots open, 4 for Mercenary and 6 for Space Pirate (these are subject to change in the following months), and will be done by all of our artists and writers, meaning each piece will have the responsible artist's personal style of drawing and writing, making it even more unique! :)
You will be able to, of course, share it on social media, just giving us due credit (and tagging us so we can gush about it as well) will be more than enough! We will also reserve the right to use the product we deliver you for our promotional ends, as in sharing in our social media for instance, and if you allow us we'll credit you for your own OC as well.
All benefits will be delivered until the end of the month, so please don't think we've forgotten about you if we take a few weeks to get it done! We'll reach out to each patron via message here on patron to get the necessary details for the benefits.

And the second announcement we'd like to make is related to that teaser we posted before... Love is in the air, or rather, love is in Seleota on this Valentine's Day!!!
We were so happy and touched by your incredible support and appreciation for our game that we decided to work on a short DLC to appease your Valentine's needs. It won't be essential to the main story, you can think of it as a special day during our beloved crew's stay in Teranium - meaning you don't have to play it to carry on with the main game!
Unlike the game, this DLC will cost $5 here on our itch.io page. The main game will continue to be free, but this (and all future) DLC is an extra that wasn't on our original plans, so we're charging a symbolic price for it to help our artists and writers dedicate more of their time to this indie project.
It will have a total of 12 illustrations, 2 for each LI (Vexx won't be featured on this one, but we promise we'll make up for it ;)), with only 1 available per playthrough - which we'll explain in the near future as we give you more sneak peeks on it hehehe and you can catch a short glimpse of one of them right... here...

We’ve also opened an official Discord server where anyone is welcome to join and you can discuss anything and everything to do with the game, as well as interact with the devs!
Hope to see you there! :D

And last but not least, we're letting you all know we'll start doing a special Q&A for Patreon - we'll make a post there around early February letting you all know when it starts. You'll be able to ask us anything: spoilers, backgrounds, backstories, random curiosities, nsfw - anything that tickles your fancy!
Questions will be allowed both on the comments of the post we'll be making and on our Tumblr inbox, with a special # we'll give you so we can differentiate your ask from the ones we get there in general.

That wraps it up for today's announcement! Oof that was a lot lol don't hesitate to let us know if you have any doubts, we're always available.
