Hi friends!
Work on 'The Library Story' is in full swing, the release date is getting closer...
In the meantime, we'd like to hold a small poll. The thing is that, while porting the game, ideally, it's necessary to make some changes to the interface and some mechanics/functions (for example, highlighting active objects with the mouse is an excellent option, but on mobile platforms t...

Greetings, Patreon and non-Patreon comrades.
This time we post Monday’s news on Monday. We know it’s unusual, but there you go.
We didn’t post any news last week because we had our hands full with various fun activities related to the game.
1. We came up with and made sketches of more than thirty monsters for the game (only 12 of them are drawn completely so far). Will a...

Hi friends!
A little about our plans. The most important plan is: that after the current headline “LS 0.95 release date” you could finally play this very version 095. In fact, on this news could be ended by these words and and go to the dates...

Greetings, Patreon and non-Patreon comrades!
Wednesday is here, so it’s time for Monday news!
By this time, we already came up with a whole bunch of new features for the Chapter Two. And we even tested some of them!
But it’s too early to list them here. The thing is, we’re still estimating what will be included in the next release and what, alas, we’ll probably have to...

The release of the first chapter of Iris Quest (including bonus materials) took place, I hope you like the result. We put a lot of time and effort into it, but it was clearly worth it. And we are not going to stop (for example, at the last skype conference we discussed the list of changes for the battle-system in the quantity of... 14(!) points. Not all of them will go to work...

Greeting, Patreon and even non-Patreon comrades.
We already released and you, hopefully, played “Iris Quest: Chapter One”. This is the fait accompli, so it’s time for the project to move on.
In fact, the work on the Chapter Two was started long ago. But we were working on it in the background of the main task, off and on.
And so, yesterday, after participating in a confe...

Greetings, Patreon and non-Patreon comrades!
Here comes the day of the public release of “Iris Quest: Chapter One”!
The main difference between public and patreon-only versions is fixes made after our patreons played the game.
This time the changelog is as follows:
1) The mechanics of battle with the King of Imps were reworked.
2) Imps also received their share...

Thanks to everyone who took part in the current poll about mini-games. Expectedly, "everything is good in moderation" option has won. Therefore, we will try to follow this course starting from the full 095 where such mini-game has been already planned ;)
Meanwhile, work on 'The Library Story' 0.95 is well underway. Perhaps, we will add some additional content if we ma...

Greetings, Patreon comrades and all the people of good will!
Allow us to inform you that we will make “Iris Quest: Chapter One” available for free download this Wednesday. Also, on Wednesday we’ll post a bonus content for it, especially for our patreons.
And, as you can see, we’re trying to resume posting our news on Mondays again.

Greetings, Patreon comrades.
We did it! The first chapter of “IQ” is out now. We crossed the Rubicon, burned our bridges, done the deed, stopped fooling around, there’s no going back anymore, etc., etc. And this brought our small team a giant relief. Finally, we got the feeling that as long as we’re alive, we can do everything planned. Your mostly positive feedback also helped. Yo...

Work on LS 0.95 part 2 goes in full swing: texts are being translated, refined by our proofreaders and added into the game.
In the meantime, we'd like to hold a small poll. In our game, we try to add various mini-games (or sometimes small game episodes), which's intended to diversify the gameplay. For example, from the new version 0.95 part 1 you might notice ----stubs--...

Greetings, Patreon comrades.
Well, the first chapter of the “Iris Quest” is practically ready. All that’s left to do is tweak a few lines of code, put a couple of remaining arts and sounds to their rightful places, play it all a few times and finally release.
This month we did really good work and, as a result, it became possible to release the Chapter One not even on the 1st ...

Time for more news about the project. Check it out, this time we managed to post it on Monday, like we were supposed to.
The things are going (knock, knock, knock on wood) well.
Currently we’re simultaneously putting together, finishing and testing the Chapter One. We even have the internal build, which could be played from start to finish. The wh...

It’s awfully embarrassing to not make it on time for “February 31”. And it’s equally embarrassing to realize that if it wasn’t for the January problems with the script which slowed down translation, programming and even drawing, we would have had every chance to make it. But whatever happened, happened.
Now, let’s take a look at our updated page of colorful squares.
Hello friends!
Work on LS 0.95 is in full swing. Looks like it would be very short news... But we will take a moment and repeat that we are still very looking for Russian-to-English translators!
The thing is that work on translations of LS goes slowly and with difficulties, therefore, if you: 1) know Russian at a level higher than Google translate (this is really important!), 2) you...

We received some feedback on LS Tentacle-tree edition release. So we decided to gather answers about some repeatative questions in this message. So-called a small Tentacle-FAQ. ^ __ ^

Dear Patreon comrades!
We were really rushing to complete the first chapter for you as a New Year present, we really were! But alas, the amount of stuff planned and our quality standards didn't allow us to make it in time.(
It's only 24 hours left until the New Year, so we understand that it's time to stop working and focus on celebration, presents, Christmas Tree, cooking, watching...

Now, while you hopefully have a good rest, we continue working on LS. Texts are in the process of translation and proofreading. Despite the obvious disadvantages, this extra-time can give some benefits. First of all, there is an opportunity to add some stuff that was planned for the next version of the game. Furthermore, as we've already mentioned, there will be the release...

Dear Patreon comrades.
Only a month left until the end of the year, so we just can’t keep silent about the “Iris Quest” status.
But today we would like to speak not so much about our plans before the New Year, but about the project’s global vision.
When we started IQ, we wanted (and still want) to not only make one more ‘adult’ game, but also to create a product wh...

Work on 'The Library Story' ver 0.95 continues at full speed.
And first of all, we'd like to say great thank you to all those who responded and offered their help with translation and proofreading! (of course, objectively, there are much more people who want to help with proofreading than those who could help with the translation... Which is not at all surprising :D. ...

Hello friends!
As you all probably know, there are a lot of texts in our game. Furthermore in the upcoming version 0.95 there will be especially a lot of them. Therefore we need additional translators. Now we are looking for new interpreters, and we strongly need people who are really interested in LS!
So if you are interested in 'The Library Story', would you like to make...

Sorry for the delay with messages. The thing is that work on LS is in full swing and is along with other things like business trips related to our basic job and real life in general, which does not add free time.
Alongside this, the closer 'The Library Story' 0.95 release, the less we want to show big and spicy spoilers, because it is much better for you to see everyt...

We have already touched on the topic of new characters in the upcoming version LS 0.95.
