So glad to hear you like the demo :3 Thanks so much for checking it out!

I can kind of give an approximate release date for the full game, but it’s likely to be inaccurate >.< and also probably not what anyone who is waiting for the full game wants to hear :( 

Basically, I am not actively working on the project right now and haven’t done so for quite some time because there are other things I am trying to finish first.

So, for starters, my active project and number 1 priority to finish and release is LOVESTARVED, which I think probably won’t be fully finished until early 2025 possibly. It really depends on a lot of different things.

My friend and I hoped we might be able to release the full otome version of LOVESTARVED by the end of October this year, but my PC died shortly after we managed to release the demo, and I’ve been without a PC to work on ever since :( I’m hoping to have a new one up and running ASAP.

And then I also plan to finish a really old project called Clarity in Qualia before Darling Duality because I already have the story 100% written for Clarity in Qualia, whereas I haven’t even gotten close to finishing Darling Duality’s writing yet.

So my 2nd priority after LOVESTARVED is done is to finish Clarity in Qualia, which I anticipate will probably take me up to somewhere around the end of 2025/beginning 2026 possibly.

Only after both of those are done so I plan to return to actively working on Darling Duality again. Once I do start working on it again, probably in 2026, it will likely take me at least 1-2 years to make with how much I have planned for it >.< So that would mean a possible release of the full game in 2027/2028 T_T

Of course, that’s just a super loose estimate! It could end up being sooner, but it could also end up being later >.<

It’s really hard for me to try and approximate stuff like that cos I’m just a solo dev, and I never know what is going to happen in life to delay things and stuff x3 Sometimes when I get bad burnout, or when my depression really kicks my ass, it can mean months of not even being able to work on projects :( 

On top of that, I sometimes have to give in to my impulses if a random idea pops into my head because if I don’t work on it, it haunts me and I can’t concentrate on anything else xD That’s kind of what happened with LOVESTARVED. My schedule for this year was to work on & finish Clarity in Qualia! When I started the year, LOVESTARVED wasn’t even a thing, but the idea entered my head one day, and I couldn’t resist >.<

Like with Clarity in Qualia, LOVESTARVED’s story is already fully written, so it’s a case of getting all the coding finished now, which takes forever T_T haha.

In the meantime, I don’t know if you have already seen it or if you’d even be interested, but I have a separate game related to Darling Duality which is complete :3 It’s basically the backstory of 2 characters who will eventually be in Darling Duality. It’s called Dawn of the Damned, and you can find it here.

If you're into yandere characters in general, feel free to check out my other projects, as most of them have at least 1 yandere in, haha.

Thank you for your interest in the game :3
