New Update 25.01.2020
The first major update to On The Verge II has been released ! The game has version 1.1. What has changed?
I listened to the reviews and comments related to the initial Intro (Overture). You could say it was needlessly long and tedious.
• The initial screen saver has been completely redesigned: animated, shortened, and rewritten.
I fully agree with the players: the moment with the boxes, namely their number, was worth speeding up, at the same time some of the characters ' phrases were unnecessary.
• The number of boxes was reduced, and some phrases were cut out.
And other changes:
• Fixed bugs and bugs related to the gameplay, cut scenes, and the visual part; • Fixed sounds that were not affected by sound settings; • Fixed settings in the menu.
