Two and a Half Studios - November 2026 Monthly Update
About This Title
Hello lovely patrons!
Welcome to our newest monthly update where we update you on all things Two and a Half Studios. As always, these will come out every month on the 6th (AEST).
October has come and gone, and we're ramping up to the end of the year! We've been beyond busy across all of our projects - so let's jump into the update!
A Date with DeathJapanese Voice Acting
We've finished implementing all of the Japanese voice over into A Date with Death 1, and gone through our first round of QA with Kakehashi games. While we're still in testing, we hope to have early access to it here on our Patreon sometime in the future.
So, how about a preview of our beloved (maybe????) 5012? Remember, please keep these previews in our Patreon or Patreon channels of our Discord!
Chibi Reaper Hoodie Rerun
Makeship will be rerunning our chibi sweater for Black Friday!
Thank you to everyone who hit the 'bring it back' button! This will be our last rerun for the year, then... 5012 plushie for ADWD2 launch, mayhaps...?
Unannounced ADWD1 Thing 1
For the past couple of months, I've been working on... unannounced ADWD1 Thing 1!
I can't speak much about this yet, but it's been a very involved and hands on process, and something a lot of people have been asking about for a long time. There's a lot to figure out behind the scenes before I can announce this, but one day in the future!
This specific thing has been taking up most of my evenings and weekends.
Unannounced ADWD1 Thing 2
And as if one mysterious thing wasn't enough, there's also unannounced ADWD1 Thing 2!
This one is still very much in the early stages, so I don't want to get anyone's hopes up just yet. But if everything comes together, it could open up some pretty incredible opportunities for ADWD that I never would've imagined when we first released the game.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed, and hopefully one day I'll be able to tell you all about it!
Reaper Sweater Rerun
There's two days left to get our winter sweater!
Oooh you want it so bad...
The Willowmist Emporium of Antiques and CuriositiesArt
We showed off a few of these last month, but we're currently working on an outfit system for Sage! How about a couple of new previews?
Lookin' fresh!
On top of this, our next incredibly complex BG by the wonderful Saed is nearly complete!
There's some easter eggs throughout this one, can you find them?
Programming
Programming work continues, and will speed up again as we start wrapping up production on ADWD2! How about some a little preview:
(Ignore the incorrect date! This is just for testing)
A Date with Death 2: REMNANTSWriting & Editing
We've been in the writing/editing mines for the past month! We're now moving onto the climax of both storylines, and we're making great progress.
Over October, we completely finished both writing and editing on day 5 of Atlas and 5012's routes! This was a pretty extensive process, with a lot of rounds of editing, but we're very pleased with the results.
Day 6 of both routes is now well under way. This is the final day of each route before we get to the endings on day 7 - we're so excited to share it with you.
Now, about those teasers...
Just what has Atlas walked in on?
And it's the same Atlas as always, right?
Programming & UI
A couple of new features this month!
What's that, I spy, but a new character creator option - eyeliner! You can use this to get that authentic reaper look.
And...
Darts! Just in case winning chess wasn't frustrating enough.
Art
Once again, we've made huge art progress!
We finished up on two brand new CGs, first of all:
I know I said before that 0000 was the final sprite, but I lied. We're working on another sprite, too:
Once this sprite is done, we will be moving to the ending CGs.
On top of that, we also worked on new pieces of concept art, which you'll see later in our artbook:
In the background department, we're working on an additional BG for 5012 at the moment, which we showed last month!
Music
Flehmann wrapped up work on the rest of our soundtrack, creating an additional 4 BGM tracks and our ending song!
While I can't show you the full ending song yet, how about 37 seconds of the start of it?
Beta
We released a massive new beta last month, bringing ADWD to being playable for days 1-7 of the common route, plus 1-4 of each character route - that's 15 original days!
You can play it on the Solaris tier!
Astralis Publishing Title - The Inn BetweenEarly Access Release
The Inn Between is out NOW on Steam in early access! The current early access covers the entire common route of the game, with over 120,000 words.
Art
A new preview of our favorite goat:
