As promised, here’s what you can look forward to after Women of Xal is fully released on Steam and itch.io; our plans for the future.
Supporting Women of Xal | 2022
The most obvious one is that we’ll be supporting WoX after its launch, both for unexpected bugs and adding fun DLC -- some free, some may be paid (But obviously non-essential; we’re not Electronic Arts or Activision!) How long this lasts will be based on sales.
Small One-Shot Projects | 2021-2022
Before we do anything else that takes years to make, we’re SO going to relax, celebrate with a staff party, give our sprite artist Cat a glittery crown of excellence, catch up on shows and games we couldn’t enjoy during development, ect. Then, we do short little 1-hour games, comics, merchandise, and fun things that will help me understand how to keep the scale of a project as initially intended. Because~
Xynthology: Tabletop Roleplaying Game |2023?
Using in-lore rules from games like Women of Xal and books like Mesto Accelerando and This Crazy World, we’re going to go head-first into creating a combat/interaction system with a streamlined yet potentially complex leveling system that’s easy enough to grasp for a single post card to tell you the leveling rules and another for how combat generally works. Claim to fame? The Xulian Songbird class. It’s been beta-testers’ favored class by far.
Untitled Gacha Game |2024/2026?
We have a business model meant to stand out and not exploit people like, oh, pick a gacha game! However, we’re still gathering a lot of hands to put in the hat and because of that, we’ll be staying mum until we can confirm if this comes before or after Xynthology. Or after~
2025 at the earliest, of course. If you beat Women of Xal I, you know -- you absolutely know we will need to go hard or go home in terms of storytelling, dialogue, and presentation (voice acting, music, art, animation, ect) We’re not going to spoil the game for anyone just yet, but if you know...you know: Women of Xal II is aiming to blow everyone’s minds away with new ideas, new arcs, and new approaches to development. \o/
