| The Star Legation OST update! | 2022-03-01 | Imagine my horror when a purchaser of The Star Legation OST notified me today that, though he was able to download the zip file from Steam, the music files were not in the file! I immediately tried to figure out what went wrong... Though I had properly uploaded the zip file to the site, AND Steam had reviewed and approved it (even after telling me I had a redundancy in the file, which I corrected and re-uploaded...waiting 3 more days for another approval), it seems that the file did not get seated properly in the correct depot. I have fixed this issue and the purchaser was able to download it again and found all the files inside the zip file |
| Patch 2/27/2022 | 2022-02-27 | Fixed an issue with the tutorial Adjusted the music volume lower during the final voice-acting endings |
| Patch 2/16/22 | 2022-02-16 | For non-native English speakers and others that would prefer it, text has been added for all of the ending epilogue scenes, and can be read by using the Backlog function (scroll up on mouse or type B). Voice acting will continue uninterrupted during this time. You can quickly flip back to the ending CG by clicking the right mouse button, or clicking the "Back" button on the Backlog screen. Once the voice acting dialogue has completed, click "End Game" to proceed. Other small corrections have been made as well, including reducing the volume of the music slightly during the ending voice acting. |
| Patch 2/14/22 | 2022-02-14 | Fixed error involving 15 save slots not all displaying. |

| My journey as a new, solo-developer... | 2022-02-05 | I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who has shown interest and support over the past 3 years of development, it's meant a lot to me to know you're out there and are excited about the game! This has been a long journey for me, and I can definitely say that I've put my best into The Star Legation. Just a little background information, if you're interested: This is my first time programming a game, which is why I used the Tyranobuilder visual novel engine to make it. Tyranobuilder has an excellent modular system that allows for tools to be assembled without the need to write much code. Of course, over time, I did learn to write some code, an |

| Windows Release confirmed for Feb. 4. Mac version pending... | 2022-01-23 | The Good News: The Windows build of The Star Legation has been reviewed and approved by Steam, and will launch on schedule for 2/4/22. The Bad News: I have decided to remove the option for the Mac build temporarily from the store, because I am uncertain whether a working build will be ready in time. Here is an update on the Mac version, and why there are delays for it: 1. As mentioned before, the game engine I used to build The Star Legation was updated and it currently does not support export to Macs as it used to (in the earlier version, I was able to create a demo for the Mac without problems.) However, I cannot roll back to the earlier ve |
