Status Update (August 2025)
Published August 18, 2025
Hello! It's been a couple months, and things are actually moving on the front of DELTATRAVELER, believe it or not. It's just... slow, as always.
If you're curious about the state of affairs for Section 4, please read the Status Update from June, as that hasn't changed at all.
v3.1.0 - Refresh Update
Currently, the Refresh Update, as it's being called now, is properly underway into the rewrite process, though it is quite slow. That's mainly due to us focusing mostly on backend rewrites to start, and have only recently started properly reworking Section 1. There is a small chance we may possibly open up applications for sprite artists, which will be announced if it happens.
That being said, I did complete the game's opening. I posted the new opening on my YouTube channel if you want to check it out. :)
Expect this update to take a while to come out, as well as future updates like Section 4. We'll release status updates as they become relevant.
Arena Mode... Delayed Again
Arena mode is being delayed again. Not because we don't want to do it!!! But because we feel it's important that we should really focus on properly expanding the game with a new section after going so long without one. So v3.2.0 likely will not be happening at all. Arena mode is likely to either be included in v4.0.0 (Section 4 Update) or in a future v4.1.0. I'll try to aim for v4.0.0, but no promises.
v3.1.0 Preview Builds
So... these won't be happening anymore... for the most part. We recently put out Preview Builds 5a and 5b to dig further into testing the vSync issues, which as noted in the devlog announcing them, will primarily be what the preview builds are for going forward.
Well, that and Mac support. Preview Build 6, along with having a new, even nicher vSync function, will also release with the very first Mac build of the game. For those with either an Intel-based Mac or an Apple Silicon Mac, I'd welcome you to try it out :D. Keep in mind that the game uses Unity 6, so older Macs probably won't be able to run the game.
And that's kinda it! I wish I had more to say, but again... slow development process. And we don't want to reveal too much too soon. So... stay tuned.
