Hello, everyone! Recently, “Mortgage nightmares” surpassed 1,500 players and 80 reviews! We want to express our gratitude for your support and feedback in the game discussions. Every review is important and helps us improve the game even more!

Autumn is not the best season for continuing development, and we’ve certainly felt it. School and work have slowed down the update for the first episode, but we are not giving up, no matter what.

In the remake of the first episode, the number of journal articles will increase - we will add information about self-employment and individual entrepreneurship, as well as a small note titled “What you can and cannot do with a mortgaged apartment.”

Due to real-life commitments, development is moving slower than we’d like, so to avoid releasing a rushed version of the episode, we are delaying the update’s release to late November to mid-December.

Most frequently asked questions and answers:

Will there be adult content in the game?


At this time, the game is rated 12+, and we do not plan to increase it with erotic scenes. Our goal is to present adult life in a light-hearted way, not shift it towards eroticism.

Auto-play doesn’t work - will you fix this?


We are already working on it! The text window will have an indicator showing when a line is finished, and auto-play will be set to the shortest interval by default.

Will you add Steam achievements and cloud saves?


We are already brainstorming fun achievements with the team. Each episode will have 3 to 7 achievements. We are reading through Steam Cloud documentation - if all goes well, cloud saves will be included in the new version of the first episode.

Will the game remain linear?


The main story will remain linear for 4 to 5 episodes, with small branches like answering a call from your mom or looking through a photo album. But we’ll make up for the linearity with lots of interactivity. :)

If you didn’t find your question here, feel free to ask it in the discussion of this post—we’ll promptly answer any questions except for obvious plot spoilers. Please be polite and respectful—we’re just people like you :)

We are just as excited for the new episode as you are!
