Incoming update!
Some news about the game, Kyma was at the @ClermontGeek this weekend, I had several positive feedbacks and ideas for improvements for the big update to come, thanks again to the people I met and the ones that tried the game for your feedback!
The update is still in progress, I think it will be released in 1 to 2 weeks to take as much feed back as possible and the game be as solid as possible, the next updates will have a faster pace again, I will do a post or a vlog to explain the delay had before this update, and content to come!
I will possibly send a first part of the update this week to have feedback about main mechanics but not sure. Don't hesitate to try the pre-release branch if you are not scared about bugs and to send me feedbacks !
Note from the dev about the rework
Hello there !
I'm writting this note to bring some news about the game development !
Why is it so long ?
2 main reasons : - This is the biggest rework of the game and its engine I had to do to make next updates easier and the code more clean. - I had productivity & motivation problems this summer, but I'm back on the rails ! I may do a devlog about this update explaining more, this time in french but subtitled in English to make it easier & faster for me to make!
Content of this update
As I said before, it's mainly a big rework update. It means most part of my work won't be a lot visible for you, but I reworked UI of the game, now more colorful & easy to read. It will also include new game mechanics for the future & some surprises, I will let you discover !
Release date for this rework update
I will give you more informations when I can, don't hesitate to join the Discord, I will post news on it again when I will send the pre-release for people that are not afraid to try an unstable version !
Thanks for playing !

Note from the dev
Hello,
I'm writting this note to bring some news to the people that aren't on the Discord. First, I decided to postpone the current "optimization / systems rework" update that I'm currently working on.
Why is it postponed ?
Because I decided to rework more things than expected. The main goals of this update are to prepare the next content updates (= more content in less time) and to make the game even more user friendly and fun to play (improvment on small details to improve the game experience).
Release date for this update
I can't give you a precise date, but it will may take time.
Next update
The next update will be a Villager Update and it should be released in 2 parts : - The first part will add a new important villager, with new quests and new various content. - The second part will contain a rework of villagers and clothes rendering, and it will also bring new villagers to the city!
Release date of the "villagers update"
As fast as possible. But the current patch / update should make the work easier than ever. The game will be more stable, allowing me to work more on new content / gameplay elements. for the next updates!
Thanks for playing!
