is this game still alive? it's been awhile since the last update
It's currently on hold due market conditions and technology limitations (not many interested in a visual novel with AI generated visuals). The sequel to this is almost complete though, it uses traditional graphics: https://deepglugs.itch.io/euryales-gambit.
I agree. I'm putting this as an optional next project after Euryale's Gambit. Patreon's will vote for either this or two others. Also, I have been experimenting over the last month with some new AI tech. Unsure if it'll be better, but if it is... could make this game a lot more doable even if it doesn't get the votes.
