Welcome to the intro to Chapter 3!

Since the last update at the beginning of March, the game has approximately 60k words of new content, including but not limited to the following:

• The introduction to Chapter 3
  • Make choices to establish which skills you're building
  • Decide how your relationships with the crew have developed over the course of a month
  • Interact more with the crew or conduct research with CAIT
  • Hear a little bit about your next destination
• Updates to the codex system.
  • The codex system is still available in "testing" mode, which means it is available to be viewed from the beginning of the game. However, since the codex is meant to become available only officially at the start of Chapter 3, some information may not appear correctly if you view it before that. The best time to look at the codex is at the end of Chapter 2/beginning of Chapter 3.
• The short story, Curtains, which is a story told from Anton's POV that takes place somewhere between Chapter 1 and Chapter 2.
• Spelling and grammar fixes throughout
• General bug fixes
• The ability to skip Chapters 1 and 2 so that you can start reading from Chapter 3.
  • Please note that, due to the nature of interactive fiction, there are too many variables to account for all of them during the Skip process. This means that only the most important variables are being considered while other may default to certain information. The current options in the Skip section will allow you to see most of the new content, but a playthrough from the beginning of the game is always going to give you the best and most accurate plot flags for your personalized playthrough.

IMPORTANT: Some variables have been added to the game since the last update. Most of these variables are brand new, so old saves might still work. If, however, you run into any unexpected errors involving unset variables, it is best to start a brand new save file. If the errors happen on a brand new save file, please report them using the in-game report link.

COMING NEXT: Continuing work on Chapter 3 and implementation of further fixes as they are found. The next update is TBD but will come whenever the next major chunk is finished.

Thanks for reading. If you'd like to see more regular updates or simply want to support my ongoing work, please check out my Ko-Fi!
