It has been a month since our last update and, as promised, we are back to share what we have been working on and what comes next for AmaTisMo.

Unity testing has begun

We have started testing the new version of the game built in Unity. At the same time, we are continuing to develop the story for the upcoming chapters and working on the game's art. The images we are sharing today are still works in progress: details are still missing, and they may change before the final game.

Panoramic grayscale line-art draft of the street Amatista follows on her way to the university. The scene uses a strongly exaggerated perspective, with pavements and building fronts converging into the distance on both sides. A modern house surrounded by a high wall stands in the centre, with more homes to the left and right. Several tall poles dominate the foreground, while smaller street lamps line the pavements. There are no people or vehicles. A banner across the bottom reads ‘Work In Progress | AmaTisMo’.

Grayscale line-art draft of Amatista's classroom viewed from one corner. Three individual desks and chairs fill the foreground and centre, with open books resting on two desks. Large windows covered by long curtains occupy the right wall. Two drawings hang on the left wall: a humanoid figure with large wings and a person with cat ears giving a thumbs-up. A rectangular light fixture is visible on the ceiling. The shading is flat, and the room does not yet have colour or characters. A banner across the bottom reads ‘Work In Progress | AmaTisMo’.

Panoramic colour illustration of the kitchen and dining area in Amatista's home, viewed from beside the dining table. A rectangular grey table and three brown high-backed chairs occupy the foreground. At the back left, an L-shaped counter contains the sink, with brown cabinets and a grey extractor hood above it. A white refrigerator stands near the centre of the room. The walls are pink, the floor is pale peach and the ceiling is cream. Black outlines, flat colours and some unfinished surfaces make its work-in-progress state visible. A banner across the bottom reads ‘Work In Progress | AmaTisMo’.

Demo coming in the first half of August

We can also announce that we will release the demo during the first half of August 2026. We will share the exact date and more details as its release gets closer.

The demo will be available in these languages:

  • French
  • Spanish for Spain and Latin American Spanish
  • English
  • European Portuguese
  • German

Our other planned languages will be available in the final version of the game. If development allows, we may also add some of them to the demo at a later date.

Platforms and release window

We can now confirm that our goal is to release AmaTisMo simultaneously on Windows, Linux, Android, macOS and iOS. We are still working towards the first quarter of 2027, although, as we explained in our previous update, this remains a target window rather than an unchangeable promise.

We are still looking for volunteer testers and voices

We are still looking for people who would like to test the game on a volunteer basis and help us find bugs, improve the experience and check its accessibility. You can apply through the Join Us section of our website.

We are also looking for volunteer voice actors for English and Spanish. No theatre, acting or voice-over experience is required: the only requirement is fluency in the language in which you would like to participate. This is an entirely voluntary and open collaboration.

Thank you for joining us for another month. We will keep sharing the process honestly as each environment, chapter and system takes shape.
