Oh, cool, I loved The Life We've Chosen! When are you planning on releasing the full game?
Thank you! I'm unsure when I'll be able to focus on finishing up the game but I'm hoping it'll be sooner rather than later. Definitely not in 2024, though!
The demo scene is very short at the moment, but I really like the character design.
Wow, that indeed makes one ask for more.
I played 'The Life We've Chosen' a while ago, so I knew I should take a look at his one too. I'll be waiting for it's release.
