Chronicles from 4.012
Very important announcement (we need your help) [CLOSED]
Hello everyone, we know that this announcement is going to be very unexpected for many of you, but CHR production is on the tightrope.
We never started this game for profit, but at this point in the project, and after the departure of our translator, we find ourselves in a dilemma
Currently, CHR still has quite a few episodes ahead of it, which will not be able to come out without an adequate and quality translation.
Our options are: open request to expand the team, or self-financing. At the moment we’re going to >open a form< for those who are interested in applying for translation (from Spanish to English). It’s an unpaid position and requires a lot of hard work. It isn’t an obligation until the end of the CHR, but any episode that we can move forward in this way will be another episode that doesn’t need to be funded. If we don’t really assume the payment at this point, it’s because no one on the team is winning anything and the project was always free.
If the requests don’t meet the requirements, we’ll be forced to go to the second option. We’ll try to adjust the budget as much as possible (counting money from direct donations, Patreon and Itch). We’re the first to want to see CHR finished, but isn’t possible for the current team to assume the translations, or the monetary cost of them.
At the moment and if we don’t get a replacement, the game will continue in production for two more chapters (money that has been saved from previous events) and then we’ll turn to finishing WT and parallel projects that help us find the financing we need. Ultimately we consider opening a kickstarter or a gofound just to pay for translations.
We are open to suggestions and alternatives. But right now, we don't see any more exits.
We remind you that you can support us on patreon, very soon it will also be available to buy our digital artbook, the full version of Witch Tales and (for the first time) we’ll leave our >paypal< open to direct donations.
Thank you for your love and support during these two years.

i wish i knew spanish just so i could help out with the translations but unfortunately, i dont ):
however, i am beyond touched by how you guys could easily seek for money for the game and hire a translator but still wish to keep the game free of costs for those playing it.
although i may not be able to help with the translations, i had to drop in and say you guys are amazing. i love the game and four months down and i still patiently wait for your updates and posts. thank you and kudos to being maybe the best developers possible
much love. <3
Thank you very much for all this love. We have some good news, partially, there're some people who volunteered to help with the translation, so, anticipating a bit, we think that the game won't suffer much from all this. We are already working on the next update and we look forward to continuing to deliver our story with the same enthusiasm as ever.
that's amazing! i'm glad to hear that everything worked out
looking forward to a lot of projects from you guys
