Performance fix up for PC - Mac & Linux go live within 18 hours!

This SHOULD increase performance by at LEAST 2.5x. On our test machine, we saw a 3x improvement on the exterior, and a 4X improvement on the interiors.

We celebrate the death of Sora.

We are aware of laggy performance in recent builds.

We are looking into this, right now - we should have a fix within 24 - 36 hours.

Monday PI Update:

- Fixed the Library entrance

- Fixed climbing ivy

- Fixed all book front pages, and reviewed zoom-in positions for 17.

- Fixed a magazine article which was somehow unfinished.

PC version live, now. Linux and Mac versions by 5pm EST

New update coming within 24 hours:

1 - Fixed game lags, when the player crouches.

2 - Known images/textures tainted by AI is now down to 6.

3 - A dozen other tiny fixes, here and there. Like Liz no longer "falling" onto the floor, at game start.

Fix for "Burning Skies" up on Steam for PC - Mac & Linux versions to follow within 24 hours.

We are fixing the issue with over-exposed skies.

Due to a server miscommunication error, we have had to delay today's update.

We hope to recover the lost work, and release for PC by EOD wednesday, with Mac & Linux to follow soon after.

Thank you for your patience, and we apologize for this delay

Our Policy Regarding Generative AI Content

Using DroneFX to create some new ambient music for Peace Island - it's pretty cool. Composition is random/procedural - not AI.

We have heard reports that some doors in certain interior locations are stuck.

We will fix this, first thing tomorrow AM.

Sunday's update

1 - Strange floating shadows will be gone.

2 - Radio station will be fixed.

3 - Improved interaction with keypads/card readers.

4 - Fixed Jumping.

Thanks for everyone's patience!

We have identified & fixed the issue with saved games not surviving updates.

FROM NOW ON, YOUR SAVES SHOULD BE SAFE!

Sorry for missing this, earlier!

We just discovered that saved games are being lost with every Steam PI update. We are fixing this, over the next 24 hours.

We apologize for this oversight - it is Steam-specific, and not something we prepared for.

Thank you for your continued support and patience.

We have gotten reports that AI generated Imagery is being found in our game.

This was not intentional, as they were apparently added to the game during the years that Pexels and Adobe Stock were not being honest in their attributions.

We are removing & replacing them, as we find them.

The final builds of the Peace Island Beta are being produced...

We hope for them to eb available on Steam, tomorrow!

This is why release got delayed yet again.

We were cleared for release on Steam - but Laura & I could not agree on whether or not PI should be released now, or when the new controller is ready.

I was outvoted by Laura, and 80% of respondents on the PI Discord.

Peace Island can been approved for Steam Early Access.

We are currently conferring to see if we can get the new controller finalized by EOD. Hopefully, we can release within 36 hours.

Steam requires 3-5 more days to approve Peace Island.

We apologize for this further delay.

We are aware that PI has not been released, despite today being the release date.

We are unable to change that, because Peace Island is currently under review by Steamworks. It will hopefully be released anytime between an hour from now, and 3-4 days.

We no longer have control over when Peace Island will be available for Early Access on Steam - we submitted it for review, and it might be 3 days - or it might be 10.

Either way - it's happening very soon. We hope you can check it out, and maybe wishlist it!

To those who wonder why we - an indie game company - occasionally post our political opinions:

In 1930's Germany, there were toymakers who wanted to say something - but were told to "Just stay quiet - you'll sell more toys!"

We refuse to make the same mistake. Human dignity is priceless.

Peace Island - WHAT IS HAPPENING ON FEBRUARY 1 (HOPEFULLY) - Steam News A free demo will be larger than most entire indie games!

Check out big news on our Steam page!

We have named one of the roads in Peace Island after Renee Nicole Good - an innocent victim of extrajudicial murder by ICE.

We apologize for being away for so long- we have been putting together the final cutscenes for the Peace Island demo. Each is meticulously hand-made, down to the crayon drawings - no AI slop, here!

The State Of Peace Island YouTube video by Eric Blumrich

We will be streaming on YouTube tomorrow, the 8th anniversary of us starting work on Peace Island. We hope you will consider tuning in!

We had to say goodbye to Liz, today. She succumbed to cancer at the age of 16. She was a joy & inspiration to us, and will be missed more than words can say.

She will live on in Peace Island, forever.
