A Note About the Release

An Exercise in Mortality - Chapter I · published 3 months ago

All eventsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Hello everyone,

I'm very happy to finally share this game with you.

I also want to be transparent about something important.

While the game tells its complete story and is fully playable from start to finish, I'm releasing it earlier than I would have preferred due to circumstances outside of my control.

Over the next 1–2 months I will continue actively working on a defined set of improvements (and continue updating it while working on the second chapter), particularly focused on gameplay fluidity, presentation, animations, and overall polish. Some additional content will be included as well.

These are not changes to the core story, but refinements intended to bring the experience closer to the version I originally envisioned.

Because this is a story-focused game where the first impression is paramount, I want to be honest with players who prefer experiencing narrative games in their most polished state: It may be worth waiting for these updates before beginning your first playthrough.

Alongside these updates, work on the second chapter is already underway and partly completed.This game is part of a larger trilogy, and my current goal is to complete the full story by 2028. I look forward to sharing more about that journey as development continues.

Thank you to everyone who chooses to be part of the journey, whether you begin your playthrough now or later as the experience continues to evolve. I will share progress and updates here as they arrive.

Thank you for your support and patience.
