July Update!


Greetings Space Citizens!

The full release for July has arrived! There's a whole new side-quest to enjoy and we're introducing the debt system!

"War of the Words" sees the player get rather familiar with the literary ambitions of the Galatea's two merchants, and it starts off in the Shoporium. Fair warning: There are a lot of puns.

We've also introduced a whole new way to buy stuff! You can now take out a loan if your reputation is positive! However, you'll need to pay it back within a week or there will be "consequences". Expect them to escalate in further patches. :)

With all the changes we've done recently we're getting close to the completion of all the game's main technical features. The last two left are the minigame system and combat! The first version of combat will actually be showing up in Disco's next quest - and thereafter the Second Crisis! Yes, that's right! We're finally close to the end of Act I and have already started initial work on the dramatic introduction to Act II! We're really looking forward to introducing a ton of awesome new content soon!

As always, with socially-distanced super-mega-high fives,

-The SNB Team
