We got an update from Kal an hour ago, the official stance is still 2026 for 1.9
Upcoming in StarMaker 1.9: the Anomaly Hunt minigame. 👀 And this is only a small part of 1.9... our biggest update yet.

I am just miffed we seem to be getting another spooky mini game that does not appear to feature Anna (or even annA) I know this image was a joke but thought it was hinting at least the vampire game would be including her at the time 😔
Very relatable, I'm a little miffed as well as I really love Anna and wish she could experience and reference these little mini games more. Even if its something where her character forgets it ever happened through possession or some spell or whatever I think it'd be neat to see her character experience these. Could even be a thing where after completing the main story events related to the mini games somehow Anna gets involved later as side content as a reward for completing it.

“2026” they’re gonna wait until the 31 of December, these people piss me off so much, I would honestly prefer for the game to be abandoned so I don’t have to keep fucking waiting

Hello there,
If waiting for a release date stresses you out this much, taking a step back from it might genuinely be good for your health.
The game doesn't have to be abandoned. Genuinely wishing a game gets canceled for everyone just because you personally lack patience is a wild level of entitlement.

I make my own fun while we wait, currently playing strip twister with Anna... she is not doing very well...
Y'all have been stringing us along for months, changed the dates 3 times, then went to just 2026, it’s annoying. And fuck yeah I’m entitled, I’m a consumer, I’m consuming your products so yeah, I’m entitled to my opinion on your games. also I said prefer, never wished the actual cancelation of the game lol

Fair enough on having an opinion—and yes, the release date has shifted on multiple occasions, for which a public apology has been made every time. Feedback about Arvus games is always welcome, but your comments aren't actually about the game itself; they're about demanding a timeline on your terms.
Suggesting you'd "prefer cancellation" over waiting isn't constructive feedback—it's saying that if the timeline doesn't suit you personally, you would rather the game be abandoned and that no one else in the community gets to play it either.
You are investing patience; Kal is investing time, labor, and resources that could be going into Roundscape, but is choosing to put them into Starmaker so the community gets a polished final product. Updates are delayed to ensure quality, not to "string people along." You are more than welcome to wait for the final release, but the timeline remains Kal's to manage.

The game has been delayed multiple times. You can’t seriously tell me most people would just shrug it off when a release date gets pushed again and again, apologies or not. Y’all kept giving a date and then going “whoops, nvm” That happened like three times. Criticizing your communication is completely fair.
You’re still hung up on me saying I’d prefer the game was abandoned rather than keep waiting. I never said I want it cancelled for everyone. I said I’d personally rather it was dropped at this point than deal with another vague “2026” answer. That’s not the same thing.
also, you’re making it sound like starmaker is a charity game, it will be on steam and you guys still get subscriptions on other platforms no? Also the traffic that it generates makes people go check rounscape, it did it for me, and I got it on steam.
Anyway, I don’t wish any of you anything bad, or the game to actually be cancelled, I like the game, it’s pretty good, just a fan of the game showing his frustration I guess
I think a constant update on the progress would help avoid these kind of situations. I get that people are impatient, i also get that the dev team is putting in work. But a weekly update to the community on where the progress is would go a long way, instead of announcements once in a blue moon. With that being said, in another thread you said that the progress is around 70% done, mind if i ask where it's at now?
