Initially I expected about a year of development time, but due to overwhelming support, I added so much more to the game.

- Akumu Update - 9 January 2026
New voice acting lines for Akumu are now in game! Thanks to Tamaryn Payne for doing this role! Tamaryn is well known for Mizora in Baulder's Gate 3, someone Akumu is quite inspired by, and she did a perfect job for the role. If you've already played through the main quest, you will need to start a new game to hear many of these lines. New artwork for Akumu is also now live, thanks to Vestele8. Akumu is seemly far more favored than the Holy City for a main story path, and since early access is the time for changes, I'll be sure to focus more on the Akumu main quest in future updates. Other changes and fixes in this update:Notifications on travel menu indicating new side quests.Barricades can now be identified upon inspection.New achievements.New path to Mountainside in The Underground.New camp sites at Tech Core (Arkngnulal Ruins) and Fort Deathmoth (Ruins of Mortis).Lookout point in Twi…
