Release! (Tech-Update wip.5787)
Added 2025-03-31 20:04:26 +0000 UTCThe 6th update is here!
As we mentioned previously, not all of the Tech Update content is available yet, but we are releasing new content every 2 months.
This cycle we have been focusing on upgrading Debbie's content, and we're now in a position to share with you the first 20 quests.
Following this release, we are now working on the remaining last part of her content which will include her last animated scenes and will be released in the next update (in 2 months).
In the meantime we hope that her story showcases the level of quality we intend to keep throughout the rest of her content.
