The story of the visual novel EON2032 began somewhere around the end of May 2016 at the actual camp "Volga." Three of our developers were vacationing there. When they returned, they came up with a story they wanted to tell the reader. The story evolved and changed many times, and a brief synopsis was complete at the end of the year. In 2017 an alpha demo version was released and available for the Friend and Family Test. The feedback was mostly positive, and it inspired continued development. More and more people came to the project, and some started working on their part of the work almost daily. But it wasn't enough to make such a vast game by today... and it's still in development. In 2020, we promised ourselves that we would try to release the EON demo in 2021. Well, time will tell if we can do that. Until then... support us. Support us with a kind word or maybe some content. Or just tell your friends about the project and let them know that summer really can be everlasting..ːtr_kvassː[/i] [h1]What should we expect from our new novel?[/h1] [list][*] Over 150 hours of an exciting story about 20 days of summer camp for high school graduates. The game will have six main routes, but we will continue to work on DLC with other girls after the game's release. We have talented newcomers working on the script who have passed the challenge.

[*] A sunny, relaxed summer atmosphere in a technology camp far from civilization. You will live three unforgettable weeks in this place, become a researcher from a Physics Squad, prepare a project in your specialty, and explore the secrets of your past... [*] ...and find your soul mate. Choose from a proud, sharp-eared head girl, a charming mathematical genius, a redheaded fidget with fox ears, a mysterious girl who prefers the company of plants, and a mad scientist. [*] ...or just find faithful friends! There are more than 20 characters in the game. [/list] [h1]Any questions?[/h1] [list] [*] When is the game planned to be released? [quote] No date, but we'll try to release the game before 2032ːtr_appleː When the game reaches the final stage of development, there will be a release date announcement.[/quote] [*] Will the game is paid? Will there be a demo version? [quote]Yes, the game will be paid. You will be able to check the demo version before you buy the game. The demo is scheduled to be released in 2021. The Demo version will introduce the world and the main characters (the first three days of the novel).[/quote] [*] Will there be a Kickstarter, pre-orders, any benefits for those who financially support the game's development? [quote] For now, we are funding the development ourselves (all income from Herbalist goes to EON development). But of course, in the future, we will need the help of those who can support us with a penny. We will tell more about this in the future, but for now, if you want to support us, buy the Herbalist (or you can make a donation of any amount through the form on our site).[/quote] [*] Will there be any hentai in the game? What's the game's rating? [quote]The official edition will not contain sex scenes. It will tentatively be 16+, as it was in Herbalist. [/quote] [*] What's EON's connection to Everlasting Summer? Is it Everlasting Summer 2? [quote]The same prototype was taken as the location. Also, in both games, the characters look like pioneers. Also, members of our studio were involved in the development of both games. The novels are similar purely in the atmosphere. The genres of the game (ES is a mystery with elements of drama, EON is science fiction and romcom-slice of life) and the narrative are entirely different. You should not expect in EON a continuation of Everlasting Summer. But we'll still give ES fans some modest references to their favorite game (however, there will be plenty of references to other franchises as well).[/quote] [*] Will there be cards/backgrounds/ badges etc., on Steam? [quote]We can't answer this question at the moment. Steam policy may change by the game release (if we can do it - we'll definitely add everything and more! ːtr_potionː).[/quote] [*] What does the abbreviation in the game's title mean? [quote]You may use any meaning you find. [/quote] [*] Will there be a voiceover? [quote]We'll consider this question when the whole novel script is complete.[/quote] [*] Will there be support for mods? [quote]Most likely yes, at least we're working on it.[/quote] [*] Will there be a release on other platforms? [quote]Probably.
