When you're so bad at estimating a release date that you make a progress tracker to let the users estimate it themselves.

Am I the only one who struggles to dive into a new album until at least a few weeks have passed? I'm still not done with TTPD.

@Yuki008381558 I know, I can't say when because I will be wrong. September was busy for our personal lives. I'm gonna squeeze in as many hours as I can after my 9to5 and try to push that progress bar this month as much as I can.

@sparshxtechyon When will it be released? the progress bar is too slow 🥲

I'm back. I saw some questions about Adam's actions in EP3. I can safely say they'll be answered in EP4: -Why didn't Adam chase Valeria at all? -Isn't it too late to save Zoey? -Were the flashbacks necessary? And yes, Adam (You) will take back control of the investigation.

A sneak peak you'll understand only at the end of the story.

@Hakuro016 Yup, spoiler: Adam does his taxes in Episode 4

@sparshxtechyon is th also a epsiode 4 hint?

My brain is on its last legs after doing the paperwork of running a business in India as a working resident of Germany. 🫠

@Koalazaa_230710 Haha yes, I hope that's okay. There were more but you were the first one.

Never change, guys. Never change.

Episode 4's plot points are decided. ✍️ What do you want to see the most this time?

@lunappolinario Thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed the experience we tried to deliver! Can't wait to be back with episode 4.

@sparshxtechyon Hi! I decided to play your game to practice my English, even though I don’t know much of it. But when I started playing, I was impressed. The plot just grabbed me so hard that it was difficult to stop. I just finished the three chapters and—OMG—I have no words.+

@neilartsy Yes

@sparshxtechyon is it brazilian portuguese?

Spanish translation is in the works. Arabic and Turkish translations are moving steadily. Portuguese will resume very soon. My side of the translations' technical framework is still pending, but the rest of the team now has full focus on Episode 4.

@Apollo12050 I probably missed quite a few DMs this week. Can you message me there again?

@v_ivanova69 That's really interesting to know because I didn't know Google started showing our game on PC (they take a while since it's super new). I'll test it there and see how I can fix the hints. About Reddit: I often lurk there to find issues with the game, thanks for the help!

@sparshxtechyon Yeah I guess my review didn't really get to the point. You can see the make and model of my phone, but I played the game on the new feature of googleplay on my PC. No ads and hints available at all. If you are looking for ways to improve the game from feedback check Reddit.

People misunderstanding a puzzle and giving the whole game a 1-star rating has me scared of making any new puzzles.

In case you missed it, below the progress tracker, we've put some insights. They'll change over time and reflect our actions/struggles during the development process. The newer insights will be clearly highlighted.

@v_ivanova69 It's a public review, so I haven't leaked anything. If you aren't receiving hints, please tell us so we can fix it. I'm sorry for the inconvenience. We deserve a low rating if there is an issue with the game, please mention that issue in the review. It helps us improve the game.

@sparshxtechyon Thank you for leaking my comment here as well. I would have taken a clue if they were available to me, but I've finished the whole game with no clues, since the ads just don't load for me. Could've looked at a walkthrough but that just isn't the point of the puzzles is it?

@yukondeulonde I'm sorry it took so long. Please feel free to take hints next time and let us know if the hints aren't very helpful, we'll improve them. We never giveaway the solution on the first hint, so if you're stuck and need a clue, take the hint. It'll save you time and earn us a penny.

@7bi_bii I'm glad to know that. Yet, I'm conflicted to say the least. Either we play it safe, or we do what we think is fun and prepare ourselves for the 1 stars.

@sparshxtechyon tbh I don't see the point in doing that. The game/Episode will be less enjoyable and shorter without this level of complexity and the hints will be useless at least. (+that what makes your game very special)
