When is the next update

Likely within this week. Or the week after.

(+4)

Some delays for me (I replied to the content above with a bit more information). But it should be out sometime this month at least. Sorry.

/G

Hi there, small update on that.

I ran out of juice as writers and game devs do, with some of the things going on in the world. On the flip side, Elden Ring released recently and I've been playing it a lot. What it's managed to do is recharge my batteries, so I've been making small but important progress.

So in short, it's delayed from what I expected (this week). It should still be this month* (sorry for the slow updates, truly). It should also, in my honest opinion be a very good one. Art wise and story wise.

Amazing novel. Loved everything about it. I just wish there was a route with Max, but other than that, it's excellent! Thanks for all the work you put into it.

(+2)

Thank you for the kind words! It gives a motivation boost when working on the game, truly!

Hi how are u, when is the next update ?

(+1)

Hi,

I'm doing alright, thanks for asking! Winter is going wild here and so on. Next update is probably sometime in the first half of March, if things keep progressing as they currently are

/G

ok thanks and take care :)

(+1)

Aw man it ended too quickly. Guess I'll just have to wait.

im  already inlove with this vn even though i played it for only 30 minutes, question- does all of the characters have routes?

(+2)

Hi and thanks for playing the game!

Mike (the bear), Charles (tiger) and John (badger) does for now. I'm probably going to revisit adding more routes once those three are finished.

#Team Rex.

Save the GSD(ude)!

Just played the updated version and love it.  Will be paying attention to patreon page as well in case you add more stuff there.

I love this VN the only thing that bothers me is the extreme inconsistent art whoever does johns art should be doing the cg and sprites

I thought it was all the same artist with the exception of Bruce, who has the artstyle of the Limits VN.

just finished the 5 hour or so journey a bit ago, didnt know it was an unfinished game, but i didnt bother to look at that. anyways, for what it is so far, i was so engaged in the story that i played it all in one sitting. excited to see where this goes. and some things about this game are very uncanny and relateable to my own life, feels like i was meant to play this game.

I'm insanely attracted to rex as long as he doesn't open his mouth and poetry starts spewing out xD

(+1)

I genuinely love Charles. I hope he gets an update soon :)

(+4)(-1)

The game has had such a lot of work put into it, it's honestly amazing. The characters feel real, and as someone who is a closet philosopher, I liked hearing about the different views  on life from people like John and Rex.

The MC is someone I kind of relate too, but not too much, which I think is a pretty good balance. You guys did amazing on the writing!

Also, Rex is now my new favourite character, I share a lot of the same views as him, and I do think he looks quite amazing, heh- And I'm now incredibly worried for him, after what happened- I hope he feels better in the next build, and I would love to have more conversations with him!

Xou've really come a long way from those days when xou didn't have sprites :p The overall feel of DT is really well done UwU Xou've set the pace so nicely, and without making it feel too rushed or forced. From world building to character development, it's just such a good read :) and finally getting to spend more time with our local himbo John,  I couldn't be happier~ ^^_

As 1ne last accolade, I want to point out that I've not come across any other goths in the many, many, many VN's I've read. And as 1ne myself, I was really happy to see Ed ^o^/

Keep up the great work~!

(+1)(-1)

I appreciate a lot the love interests (John especially) but my heart made a 360 when I heard Rex's point of view in life because that's also how I view the world and I'm strongly considering picking the programming lessons so I can create a route with him 

(+2)

I'm glad to hear! 

It's something that's been brought up before. I'm interested in writing out a route for a few characters (Rex, Bruce and perhaps Max) once the rest of the game is finished. The downside is that it's way down the pipeline, as the rest of the game has to be finished before I can properly devote myself to it.

I have a question:  which Android version do I install on my tablet? 🤔🤔

(+1)

The one labelled "Newer Phones" should work for most tablets. I'll rename them to make more sense.

Let me know if it doesn't work and I'll build a larger more universal android package.


/G

For some reason I cannot install the newer phone version (Android) on my tablet. I have done it before.

(+1)

Hi, I've uploaded a universal release .apk now, please try that version.

If this does not work for whatever reason, try deleting any old version you have on the game first, including the local save file storage. (Usually in \android\data\com.distanttravels~

/G

That did it, thank you!!! 😃😃😃

Hmm is there a way to make the font for alex a bit darker? It's kind of hard to see some words where  part the background is white.


(1 edit) (+1)

Hi! This bug should be fixed. 

I had missed adding the new textbox to the player if defined in the quick start. Try starting a new save (you'll get all important flags and catch up fast with the quick start option).
If the issue persists, you'll have to re-download, there should be a background for the MC Textbox.

Sorry for the trouble, and thanks for the report!

You're awesome! It works. Thanks for the help! Wonderful Update. Can't wait for more. 

(+1)

Will Bruce have his own romance route at some point? That's one gorgeous dragon, though my favorite is Mike, the wonderful bear.

(+2)

Bruce is fun to write, and he's in my pipeline once the rest of the game is complete. Sadly, it's in the future still. 

Although, there's something about this game (Heads up, it's an RPG and not a VN) by a dear friend of mine...

yes! new update!!Xqc Clapping GIF - Xqc Clapping Fast GIFs

oh. my. lord. 

I'm so happy, finally, i can see 0.6 of Distant Travels! I've done read of this beautiful story, and it's so cool, omg. Thanks for this udpate, GruntSteel!

(+2)

I waited so long :D thank you so much

(+3)(-1)

Holy sht! Holy sht! Holy sht! It's here! It's here!

(+3)

I just finished through the 0.5 build and I must say that you did an excellent job. The exploration of both quantum physics as well as psychological/philosophical perspectives is a refreshing and thought provoking addition to a visual novel. I can't wait to see where it goes in the future. Keep up the good work!

PS: I love the references to Limits.

Thank you for the kind words! It's really motivating to read. 
Hopefully 0.6 is interesting in it's own way, despite John's route being the outlier when it comes to what people have come to expect from the story.
/G

(+1)

Now i'm curious what's different about john's route o_o

It's more about personal relationships and finding oneself, in a way. It's still DT, but it's the one that sticks out a bit due to a small lack of sci-fi.

Hm, I might like other routes then. 

(+2)

Just want to know if there was gonna be an update anyways just keep on pushing strive in your goal and be strong there wil be more problem on the way

Thank you for the support! Really, it means a lot. 0.6 is now out and I expect I'll have to do a small update in a few days, as it goes. Hopefully back to monthly or bi-monthly updates from now on. /G

Oh wow thank a lot dude keep it up, hopefully i really love this vn the plot the setting it's just perfect

(+3)

Hi, any update in these days ?

(+4)

Hi, 
I still want to push an update out this year and I'm basically working (job) -> dinner -> writing until late night at the moment hoping to get it out before new years.
At latest, it'll be out a week into the new year.

All the best, and thanks for sticking with me despite all the delays. I'll touch on it in the devlog, and explain what happened to me for the delays, when I push the update.

/G

 Glad you are doing right man, take your time, no rush on that, the longer the wait the better the reward will be ;) ...        you deserve a few days off too,  hopefully  ending the year in the best  posible way, good luck and  an early happy new year

( english isn't my native language , so i apologize if i made some gram mistakes )

Thank you for your hard work, GS!

We appreciate it. I understand life can get in the way and delays happen.

Hey Grunt (GruntSteel, GS?), I really wish I could contribute to this somehow as it seems to hit home pretty hard with the self esteem stuff, I would love to help with proofreading and fixing some of the typos and such in the writing but I don't want to ruin the story by knowing what's ahead... Tough choices, plus I don't even know if you're looking for anyone to do that. Figured I'd volunteer anyway, I think what you're doing so far is positively excellent!

Hi,

Sorry for not responding earlier.

I try to proofread and I'm happy to have any help once an update is released. Usually, the first week after an update I try and fix all the typos and errors reported and if needed I'll apply a small patch fixing them then.
Feel free to reach out to me on discord (either through DM or through the server) and send me anything you find, and I'll make sure it is fixed.

However, after previous experiences with specific proofreaders ending up missing the same thing as me (Reading too much of the same thing, perhaps?) I don't want to fully commit to having an editor or such at this time.  I appreciate the attention and offer.

Will there be an update this month or next month?

I mean the VN itself is pretty amazing. I really wish that the creator won't ghosted it out.

There'll be a relief for me if I know that the game is still somehow under way, even with a minor update or in its slow pace.

Just hoping that I can someday, relive the journey and continue on with this great VN. 

You can't just put me in this misery right? :)

(+11)

Hi,

There will be an update this month. Honestly there's enough written for an update already, but I need to polish it some more, aside from just being on a roll with writing; meaning I'll write until I get stuck and then update. 

TL;DR Yes December update for sure, and a massive one at that, a few hundred fixes, sprite updates, new characters, new CGs, UI update and a few hours of story.


Thanks for the kind words! Truly! /G

(+5)(-1)

WOW REALLY THAT'S AWESOME AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK DON'T PUSH YOUR SELF TOO HARD :)

(+2)

I excitedly await the new update and wish to thank you in advance for your hard work this year! :D

(+3)

That's one of the weirdest hiatus reasons if i'm honest lol.

"I'm doing so well writing, I don't want to stop and polish it for an update" xD

Well i'm happy at least it isn't like the common no work done hiatus.

(+1)

Well this is one big news and a good a good new keep up the good story

Some update this month?

(+2)

Probably not, sorry. Too much stuff I have to deal with in my life at the moment to push it.

(+9)

Hey, how are you doing buddy?

(+14)

Hi there!

Still dealing with some health issues, but work stuff is clearing up.

I'm taking my time writing still as to keep my health up. Slow and steady. There's a deadline set for the update; but it's closer to x-mas. I might release an update earlier but that's a big *might*.

/G

(+7)

I hope you feel better soon. Take it easy buddy, your health comes first. Hugs!

(+2)

Eat fruits to stay healthy😊 hope you feel better soon

edit: yeah ok i just read now last devlog dunno how i missed it

Question, In the future can we take other route's or no? (*Cough* i like Rex)

The poor man can not even finish the 3 routes, without offending the creator, worse put more routes, and we all love Rex we demand a route for 3 years from now xd

not three years, thats specific and still a time constraint. whenever he feels its appropriate to add in rex's route or feels it could work. (also maybe the way to proc the routes for them could be a empty option with a question mark! like we click that and get a choice later.)

(1 edit)

(would also like a Rex route)

Im still at route 2 and ill get to route 3 eventually maybe it will change my thoughts for Rex :3

(+4)

It's something I'd like to explore in the future, but not until the main routes are completely finished as they build the main story.

😆

(+3)(-1)

Just finished it and I LOVE  Mike! My heart dropped when the game was suddenly done😂

(+1)

I made it here, but the control's dont work 〜(꒪꒳꒪)〜

Are you playing on joiplay? If so u can just tap anything just like any other android games

I was trying to open it from the app but i was stuck, and yes ive played it on joiplay thanks btw!


PS: Sorry for the late reply i got busy -,-

(+2)(-1)

Oh god do not worry friend! Its not like the end of the earth, so we will wait until you release it! As they all say " patience is key" meaning the more you work hard the worth it you will make for you update, I'm rambling again sorry


But we will wait, promise! 

(+1)

*Cough* Any info on the mobile version prob.? (Just askin (~‾▿‾)~ )

Hi, sorry for not updating it. The problem is that the main code has changed enough that going back to a previous version to update would too much work.
However, for when the update is finally released it should work without issues, at least I haven't ran into any problems while testing.

(1 edit)

Okay!!, Thank you for the info. I hope the testing runs smoothly!! (~‾▿‾)~

You can try playing  a pc version by using joiplay

(1 edit)

Thank you!! ヾ(・ω・)

(1 edit) (+1)

so like how many routes are there cause im really feeling the two in the front of the cover and the croc

(+2)

Currently there's Mike (the bear in front), John (badger next to the croc) and Charles (tiger next to the badger). I plan on finishing the game with these three, then add other routes as any of the other routes would differ story wise.

〜(꒪꒳꒪)〜 Just here to wait and dancee~

〜(꒪꒳꒪)〜〜(꒪꒳꒪)〜〜(꒪꒳꒪)〜 les dance

Just tried this, and it is good so far :) I just noticed that in some part of the game says "woman dressed as a waiter". "Waiter" is used for men, while "waitress" is for the females. Maybe I am wrong, but that's how I learned it in my english classes. Overall, I enjoyed reading this.


(+4)

Fixed for the next update, thanks! 

She could be cross-dressing. And it is not a joke.

Is this game on hiatus, or are the updates just taking time?

(+1)

just taking some time i believe.

(+7)

Hi, sorry for the late answer.

I've had an uh, interesting period in life with health, work etc.

However, the game is still very much in development and I'm trying to push out this next update soon.

(+2)

Thank you for the clarification!
