- Progress Report - September 2026 - 14 September 2026
I have been radio silent for 7 Months working hard on improving and testing the Demo before being confident enough to release it. Today is that day, and I am PROUD to officially announce that the Demo for VOIDWATCH: CrossLust is available to play for free FOREVER!Without further adieu, let's get into what you can expect in the Demo!The Prologue section in its ENTIRETY is playable from beginning to end, and work is being done with the Main Build to ensure Save Transferring is possible for those that played all the way through! You might even be rewarded for doing so, that is if you were paying attention enough!There are now 3 Classifications of Physical Damage. Bash, Slash, and Pierce. These make both the Weapons and Skills more unique and allow for more variety in combat. Speaking of skills, there are 2 different types characters can learn; Vim and Rage.Alongside improving older feature…
- Progress Report - February 2026 - 6 February 2026
As mentioned in our last update, only a significant amount of work would have had to be completed since New Years Eve to warrant an update this early; and I have done exactly that. Ladies, gentlemen, and everyone in-between I am happy to finally announce that the script for VOIDWATCH: CrossLust has been COMPLETED! That’s right, Prologue, Act 1, Intermission 1, Act 2, Intermission 2, Act 3, AND Epilogue have been FULLY realized on paper! I began rewriting the story while updating everyone on April 7th of 2025, this makes the total completion time for the script at just short of 10 Months with all of the ups and downs throughout concepting. Below is the length of each section of the script based on page count. NOTE: Earlier sections of the game had more descriptive sections while later sections were written to account for extra room to change details if need be. Prologue: 22 Pages Act 1:…
- Iteration 3 - New Year's Eve 2025 Update - 31 December 2025
Today is New Years Eve, the final day before we enter 2026. This year has been filled with much hardship, trials, and tribulations. This year has seen the rebirth of this project for the third time. When I came to this decision I was very demoralized, believing everything my College professor had said about my work ethic and how maybe I "don't want this enough". I have proven him wrong time, and time again since. The speedbumps I've hit while making this project have been rough, I couldn't even fully commit to the final roadmap for 2025 fully due to work, school, and personal obligations taking up all my time. I had spread myself too thin towards the end of this year, that stops NOW.Since I have last posted about the project, I have condensed my writing for this game more for future me to pick up the work easier the more time passes. We are at the beginning of Page 63 for Act 3, which I…
- Iteration 3 - Update #13: November 8th, 2025 - 9 November 2025
Alright, let's jump into business today everyone. Welcome to Update #13! We are about 20 pages into Act 3, and the overall idea on 1/3rd of Act 3 is in the writing stage. The 2/3rd will be in the writing stage very soon at this rate, and the final 3rd is slated to be entering the writing stage by December. We are better than on track, but not enough to be considered 25% just yet. I'd give it another 10-20 pages left until then, but we have surpassed our goal for this update. We are slightly ahead of schedule! October:November:December:- 50% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #12" - 75% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #13" - 100% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #14" - Begin "Act 3" by "Update #15" - Update #12: October 18th, 2025 - Create "Final 2025 Roadmap" in "Update #12"- 10% Completion of "Act 3" by "Update #13" - 25% Completion of "Act 3" by "Update #14"…
- Iteration 3 - Update #12: October 18th, 2025 - 19 October 2025
This update was originally meant for October 15th, however since Itch.io was down I postponed the update until the website was up and running. It made things less complicated. Without any further adieu, today's update is to discuss the long-term plans for the new Roadmap, along with longer wait times between monthly updates to maintain more interesting content worth reading. As of today, according to the old map our progress looks like this:September:October:November:- 10% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #10" - 25% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #11" - Update #10: September 17th, 2025 - Update #11: September 30th, 2025- 50% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #12" - 75% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #13" - Update #12: October 15th, 2025 - Update #13: October 30th, 2025- 100% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #14" - Begin "Act 3" by "Update…
- Iteration 3 - Update #11: September 30th, 2025 - 1 October 2025
Good evening everyone! Welcome to another update for VOIDWATCH: CrossLust! First things first, I would like to apologize for Update #10 being a quick, effortless update. I had made just barely enough progress to be considered 10% complete at the time, however I have re-evaluated my style of writing and have since improved progression speed tenfold!September:October:November:- 10% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #10" - 25% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #11" - Update #10: September 17th, 2025 - Update #11: September 30th, 2025- 50% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #12" - 75% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #13" - Update #12: October 15th, 2025 - Update #13: October 30th, 2025- 100% Completion of "Intermission 2" by "Update #14" - Begin "Act 3" by "Update #15" - Create "Winter 2025 Roadmap" in "Update #15" - Update #14: November 12th, 2025 - Update…
- Iteration 3 - Update #9: August 31st, 2025 - 1 September 2025
On a technicality of beginning this update before midnight on August 31st, this is totally on time still ;)GOOD EVENING everyone! With this new update, we officially have concluded our Summer 2025 Roadmap! There's been plenty of long hours writing the finer points and details of Act 2 throughout the Summer, setting the stage for the Intermission 2 section we'll be completing in the coming weeks. For now though, a bit of a break is sorely needed; if my wrist has any say in it that is... (Act 2 is totaled at 155 Pages)Below is a look back at everything I have tasked myself during our Summer Season.June:July:August:- The entirety of Intermission 1 at 100% Completion - Started Act 2 - Published 2 Updates throughout the month- Act 2 at 50% Completion - Published 2 Updates throughout the month- The entirety of Act 2 at 100% Completion - Started Intermission 2 - Completed all tasks in Summer 2…
- Iteration 3 - Update #8: August 16th, 2025 - 17 August 2025
Good evening everyone! I never typically enjoyed the summer all that much. These heatwaves have made time between work dreadful, luckily for me I still had time to work on this project. (Despite all the sweat.) Today marks the middle of August, and yet another VOIDWATCH: CrossLust update. Here's where we are in the roadmap:To Do: JuneTo Do: JulyTo Do: August- Begin "Intermission" Section - Iteration 3 - Update #4: June 15th, 2025 - 25% Completion of "Intermission" by "Update #5" - 75% Completion of "Intermission" by "Update #7" - 100% Completion of "Intermission" by "Update #8" - Begin "Act 2" Section - Iteration 3 - Update #5: June 30th, 2025- 25% Completion of "Act 2" by "Update #6" - Iteration 3 - Update #6: July 13th 2025 - 50% Completion of "Act 2" by "Update #7" - Iteration 3 - Update #7: July 31st 2025- Iteration 3 - Update #8: August 16th 2025 - 100% Completion of "Act 2" by "Up…

Good afternoon everyone! I hope everyone is doing fantastic despite the consistent heatwaves. We have made it to the end of July, which marks 2/3rds of the summer have come and gone as well as yet another VOIDWATCH: CrossLust update!Act 2 has turned out to be a longer journey and experience than Act 1, with 84 Pages of details and content we have surpassed the 50% mark of completion, however not by very much. We are on track to completing Act 2 before the end of August if we keep this pace up.To Do: JuneTo Do: JulyTo Do: August- Begin "Intermission" Section - Iteration 3 - Update #4: June 15th, 2025 - 25% Completion of "Intermission" by "Update #5" - 75% Completion of "Intermission" by "Update #7" - 100% Completion of "Intermission" by "Update #8" - Begin "Act 2" Section - Iteration 3 - Update #5: June 30th, 2025- 25% Completion of "Act 2" by "Update #6" - Iteration 3 - Update #6: July…
- Iteration 3 - Update #6: July 13th, 2025 - 13 July 2025
We are already nearing the halfway point of July! I swear it feels that this year is just flying by without a care in the world. Welcome to another update for VOIDWATCH: CrossLust! Hope everyone has been keeping cool in this unbearable heat.I am utilizing a smaller journal for this portion of the script, however as of last night we have just passed the 25% Completion milestone; at least what I currently deem as 25%. Depending on how the remainder of the writing goes, we could realistically be at 30%, but it's too soon to say for certain. Below is the updated Roadmap as of today.To Do: JuneTo Do: JulyTo Do: August- Begin "Intermission" Section - Iteration 3 - Update #4: June 15th, 2025 - 25% Completion of "Intermission" by "Update #5" - 75% Completion of "Intermission" by "Update #7" - 100% Completion of "Intermission" by "Update #8" - Begin "Act 2" Section - Iteration 3 - Update #5: Jun…
- Iteration 3 - Update #5: June 30th, 2025 - 30 June 2025
June has already come and gone! 2025 is flying past us at a breakneck speed! With the end of June however, comes once again another update on VOIDWATCH: CrossLust! Before we begin, let's go over everything we accomplished in just a little over 2 Weeks.Completed the entirety of the Intermission 1 section, along with key points of interest to remember going forward into Act 2's drafts.Beginning Act 2 with the first 2 pages already completed, diving more into the paranormal aspects of Brian Kendo's overall story.These milestones have placed us ahead of the curve for our roadmap in place.With the early completion of these goals, a positive reevaluation of our pre-existing roadmap from May 26th is needed; the first of hopefully many. This is needed to better layout the foundation for the goals I have set in place for this project. Everything in August has now officially been moved to July, a…
- Iteration 3 - Update #4: June 15th, 2025 - 15 June 2025
I hope everyone is enjoying the nice weather under the current circumstances in the world today, I am pleased to present Update #4 with you all today! Here's what has been accomplished since Update #3.A full analysis of my writings for Act 1 of the story, summarizing key points of interest.Diving into new loose ends created by Act 1, while removing some from the Prologue section that were better explored in Act 1.Several pages of Intermission 1 written with the ending of Act 1 in mind while also creating a good basis to seamlessly transition into the eventual Act 2 of the story.Our reevaluation of the roadmap was fairly accurate and a great idea considering we are now a little bit ahead of schedule based on what we've established in Update #3; but this doesn't mean we can afford to fall behind. You may notice I have added another, yet simple task to the August 2025 task list. This is ju…
- Iteration 3 - Update #3: May 26th, 2025 - 27 May 2025
I genuinely misread the date of this update as the 26th of May, not the 25th. Regardless WELCOME to our 3rd update! Here's what we accomplished since April 29th! We went from 24 Pages into the first act to concluding the arc with a whopping 45 PAGES, while including a 6 Page "Key Points of Interest" section of the outline. I have yet to begin the Intermission section, with my job scheduling me more often through the beginning of the summer. I barely even have time to stream now too! This month has taught me to understand and reevaluate my current work rate and the deadlines of each written section. Therefore I hope this is the last time I adjust the roadmap with delays for the time being. To Do: June 2025 - Begin "Intermission" Section - Iteration 3 - Update #4: June 15th, 2025 - 25% Completion of "Intermission" by "Update #5" - Iteration 3 - Update #5: June 30th, 2025 To Do: July 2025…
- Iteration 3 - Update #2: April 29th, 2025 - 29 April 2025
Welcome to another VOIDWATCH: CrossLust update! Today we'll be discussing progress, complications, and reevaluating our established roadmap. Let's get started! First, you may have noticed this update released a day late. Over the last week, both myself and the remainder of my household has been suffering from health complications; which has been eating up quite a lot of my free time. For some context, I caught the Stomach Flu and only recently have been able to drag myself out of bed to write this update. This brings me to our progress. I have just started writing Page 24 of Act 1 before becoming very ill, as you may know we are behind schedule because of this. The updated roadmap can be found below. To Do: May 2025 - Complete Act 1 - Start Intermission 1 - Iteration 3 - Update #3: May 25th, 2025 To Do: June 2025 - Complete Intermission 1 - Start Act 2 - Iteration 3 - Update #4: June 15…
- Iteration 3 - Update #1: April 7th, 2025 - 8 April 2025
Whether you're longtime followers of this project or newcomers, I welcome you all to the VOIDWATCH: CrossLust Steam page. This project has been in constant development hell since April of 2022, that's roughly 3 years now. Since then a lot in my personal life has changed and I want to wish everyone an apology. I did not have my head on straight, and was emotionally unavailable to provide this project with more positive development techniques. I limited myself out of simplicity and fear that this would all be a waste of time and effort. I acknowledge my own self-esteem issues and have been working on bettering my mental health through my long absences. The truth is, I WANT to be a developer. I WANT to make this game the ABSOLUTE BEST it can be, and I KNOW it's doable now more than ever before. I am saddened to announce I have begun a 3rd iteration of the game and its narrative. A large er…
