Dear Players: An Update on Game Development Progress
Long time no see! This is the Unreachable Oneiroborder development team. Thank you all for your continued attention. Recently, many players have been asking about the development progress of the full version of Unreachable Oneiroborder. We fully understand everyone's eagerness to play the complete game. Please allow us to first offer our sincere apologies—for the past six months, we have been focusing primarily on iterating the full version content, so there has been limited progress information we could share publicly at this time. We ask for your understanding!However—while developing the full version content, we also discovered many shortcomings in the current demo version. We devoted significant effort to readjusting the performance style and details of many danmaku patterns in the first three stages, and implemented numerous experience optimizations throughout the game. Currently, Unreachable Oneiroborder Demo Pre5 has been released—please update and try it out! The specific update contents are listed at the end~Additionally, we need to update everyone on our development plans and current status, such as how much content has been created recently, what stage the game is at now; exactly how much content the full version will contain; when the full version will be released... and more.Please allow me to shift to a slightly more conversational tone~Um, first of all... the Unreachable Oneiroborder team was formed in 2018 by a group of students driven by shared interest. Most of the game content was created by team members in their spare time outside of studies. As time passed... nearly all of our core members have gradually entered working life, and we no longer have the same level of passion and energy to devote to this fan creation as we did in the past.Moreover, our quality standards have become increasingly high, so the game has undergone many iterations over these 8 years. Take danmaku alone—each Boss has at least two complete rounds of danmaku iteration. In J...Read full article on Community Announcements (Dreamer)Patch NotesOfficial
