- RELEASE! - 21 September 2020
At last, came this, perhaps, most exciting day for any team as a whole and each developer individually – the day of RELEASE! Our path to this event lasted exactly 1 year, 9 months, 23 days. Someone will say that this is very little, because it often takes several years to make a game. Sure, we say, we know that, nevertheless, this is how long it took us. It is hard to find proper words to describe our feelings right now! It cannot be said that we have passed this path in one breath, and most likely it is beyond the power of anyone. During this time, many things happened, joy, overestimation of strength, disappointment, arguments, hysterics (from laughter), devastation, ambition, drive, meeting interesting people, a second wind, etc. One thing I would like to note, in spite of everything we traveled this path in a very organized way, as a whole, as a real team, which is obsessed with one…
- The full version of the game (6 acts) is ready! Some tests and then RELEASE! - 16 August 2020
Hello dear friends! We are glad to inform you that the full version of the game, all 6 acts, is complete! It would seem that since the game is ready, we can safely go to release, but we decided not to rush, because we do not want you to be disappointed if you come across bugs that we could not find during our own tests.As practice shows, games behave differently on different computers, and considering that our team is small, we, with all our desire, are physically unable to conduct full-scale tests and identify all the errors. In this regard, we turn to you for help to find all the bugs so that we could fix them and then release the game with a clear conscience! IMPORTANT! We plan to spend no more than a few weeks on the tests! Since entering early access, a lot has changed in the game, not even counting the addition of the 5th and 6th acts - based on your feedback, quests, locations ha…
- Act 6. What the hell, here goes nothing... - 13 July 2020
Hello, dear friends! We are glad to share the news that the 6th act is fully completed!!! In connection with this event, we decided to show several pictures of the 6th act, which will occur mainly at the abandoned mill, as well as at the depot near the bay. https://i.imgur.com/XjtK0Nw.png https://i.imgur.com/upUcTI4.png https://i.imgur.com/jrjriEP.png https://i.imgur.com/I3aBYda.png https://i.imgur.com/8afQl44.png https://i.imgur.com/UFPRLLF.png https://i.imgur.com/hzQKmW1.png Sincerely, Mikola Games Team ːsteamhappyː P.S.

- Act 5. Adventures at the bee yard! - 23 May 2020
Dear friends! The finalization of the game (acts 5 and 6) is slowly but surely nearing completion, and in this regard, we decided to share with you several images of the 5th act, which will mainly take place at the bee yard (other locations will be involved too). https://i.imgur.com/8u699Px.png https://i.imgur.com/ndAWzuf.png https://i.imgur.com/gMHqUjO.png https://i.imgur.com/MmgucO5.png https://i.imgur.com/eN9pIaM.png https://i.imgur.com/vZwSDB0.png https://i.imgur.com/cla5VMV.png https://i.imgur.com/jccXFrh.png https://i.imgur.com/u8EUqZg.png Regards, Mikola Games Teamːsteamhappyː P.S.

- COVID-19 STOP! - 7 April 2020
https://i.imgur.com/MNJYHVq.png Dear friends! These days, when a terrible pandemic is gaining momentum around the world, we, the Mikola Games team, like most people, did not stand aside and took extreme measures. But we did not stop only on the team members, but went further and decided to involve the characters of the game in the fight against the pandemic, and provide them all with protective equipment and masks! Special update in connection with the СOVID-19 pandemic is out now! Best regards, Mikola Games team
- We invite bughunters to our team - 5 March 2020
Hello dear friends! Some time ago, we published our plans for the future of the project, in which we said that we decided not only to finalize the game but also to partially rework some of the existing elements of the game. You can read in more detail about it HERE All was fine and dandy, but after releasing the game into the early access we realized that finding game bugs was a bit more complicated than we could imagine, partly because our team is quite small and we physically cannot do it all by ourselves. To avoid this in the future, we have the courage to ask you for help in this difficult matter. We will be very grateful to everyone who responds and decides to join our small but very ambitious, goal-oriented and friendly team, thereby becoming one of us to work on the Highly Likely project together. We will be very gratefulːsteamhappyː In order to join us and get access to the test…

- Plans for the near future! - 13 February 2020
Hello, dear friends! We are glad to share some important news regarding our plans for nearest future. Friends, during the first few weeks since the day when our game became available, we’ve heard from you a lot of reviews, suggestions, requests, advice, wishes, etc. Thank you so much for participating in our project! We did not disregard any of your comments, both on Steam and other sites, including YouTube, where reviewers and streamers themselves and their viewers expressed their opinion. Having collected all the information and analyzed it, and after taking into account our plans, we decided on the course of further development of the game for the near future. First of all, this applies to new content, gameplay and the atmosphere of the game as a whole, which, without a doubt, will make it even more fun and diverse. The game will be filled with new quests, animations, graphics, sound…
- Update 0.03 - 4 February 2020
Friends, welcome our first major update since the day the game became available!ːsteamhappyː https://i.imgur.com/aUWFRmW.png List of work done: Animation. We fixed the bugs due to which several objects appeared at the same time or disappeared altogether. Sound. Corrected the bugs due to which there were overlaying sounds and some other inconsistencies. Added sounds to the fair. Inventory. Fixed bugs due to which it was possible to change the active item during the action. 4th act. Particular attention was paid to the broken parallax in the second half of Act 4, when Mikola wakes up and a dialogue with the Wife begins. Cut scenes. They also got a little attention. In addition to all of the above, we worked hard to fix a number of other minor and major errors that disrupted the gameplay and spoiled the impression of the game. Enjoy the game!ːsteamhappyː P.S. The build was tested by regula…

- The Tale of How Our Colleague had a “dialog” with Feminists - 21 January 2020
Hello, dear friends! We decided to share one story that happened not so long ago, and believe me, it is to be continued... You all probably know cases when representatives of the feminist movement (or other movements) expressed their dissatisfaction with certain games, sometimes creating a scandal out of thin air and thereby jeopardizing the reputation of developers, leaving a negative mark on the team and project that often put their soul, time and money into it. Can you say honestly, you also probably thought that all these were accidents and all these “Robin Hoods” are fighting an open-minded battle, guided exclusively by objective reasons and their inner convictions? As it turned out, this is far from the true, at least the experience of our comrade is an evidence to this. We will tell you one story from which many of you will learn something new about this business. You’ll be able…
