- Patch 0.8.10 - Simplified Chinese - 14 July 2026
Big News: Chinese Translation is Here!Making our game accessible to players around the world has always been important to us. Over the past few months, we've received many requests from players asking for a Chinese translation – and we listened.We truly respect and appreciate the vibrant Chinese-speaking community, and we wanted to meet their expectations. So, while our artists are busy drawing, animations are being polished, and new side quest scripts are being written, the rest of the team found time - with some outside help - to prepare a translation for the game.We're well aware that Chinese is a complex language, and we've almost certainly made some mistakes along the way. But this is just the first step. We'll keep working hard to polish this aspect and make it as good as it deserves to be.For now, only Simplified Chinese is supported - we plan to add Traditional Chinese once we'r…
- THE ROPE KNIGHT! - 2 July 2026
The Rope Knight has been announced on Steam by our friends. The release is less than a year away. Add it to your wishlist so you don’t miss it! Become a superhero whose power is rope manipulation. Stylish 2D art, turn-based combat, hot 18+ scenes, charismatic superheroines and villainesses you can defeat, bind, seduce — and sometimes save. Superheroes, shibari, BDSM — that's what The Rope Knight is about. FEATURES:Deep, vivid heroines and villainesses The Heliarch heroines and villainesses are more than just archetypes. Each of them has her own story — tragic, strange, dark, funny or unexpectedly personal. Some struggle with losing their sanity, some live under the weight of guilt, some were broken by the system, and some simply enjoy their power. As the story unfolds, you get to know them better — and can influence their fate. Some villainesses can turn over a new leaf, become allies,…
- Dev Diary #22 - 17 June 2026
Hello, pirates! It's time for the developer diary. Here we talk about progress, share thoughts, and news.We'd like to start with something unpleasant for us — criticism. Of course, everyone faces it and reacts differently. For us, the main criterion is: "Does the criticism improve the game or not?" If yes — we listen and fix it regardless of feelings. That's been the case with many things, and it's no surprise — the first experience and first game can't be perfect in principle (though for some reason many think we're a professional team with tons of experience). But anyway. We'd like to recall two topics: the impossibility of getting all content in one playthrough, and the imbalance of choices. The first is bad criticism, because it reflects a personal opinion of a player who expects everything at once and then leave. The second is more interesting. On one hand, a choice between A and B…
- Patch 0.8.8 - New language: Portuguese! - 18 May 2026
We are excited to present an update that adds Portuguese language support to the game! It's very important for us to make the game accessible to players around the world. We look forward to your feedback and are ready to fix any errors or possible typos.This is the first step - after this, we plan to add translations for several more languages. We already have a few in mind that should appear first, but we're still curious: do you have any language requests?
- Pirate Life: Quests, Art, and a Few Plans - 14 April 2026
Ahoy, pirates and pirate ladies! How are you? We want to share some fresh development news.We’re actively working on three new side quests. Originally we planned to release them together, but we’re being realistic about the timeline: most likely, they’ll be ready by the end of August or beginning of September. Right now we’re thinking: should we release them one by one (so you get content earlier) or all as a single pack? Your opinion matters to us!Quest progress:The text for all three quests has been written and translated.5 out of 9 NSFW art pieces are ready (we’ll show them in the next update).80% of the backgrounds for the first quest (Anna and Philip) are done.We’ve hired another artist to speed up the process.The writer is discussing and refining the character Loren - we want to make her more valuable compared to the others. At the same time, they’re writing Sara’s quest. The arti…

Hello, dear players!We are currently working. The animator has submitted the final animation, we've added voiceover to it and implemented it into the game. The patch is ready.

- Developer's Diary #21 - 3 March 2026
Hello, dear players! We want to share some news with you about the development process.You've sent us your feedback on the latest patch, and we've seen that there are some bugs hindering a comfortable playthrough. We managed to fix some of them almost immediately, but others we haven't been able to fix just yet. As for the addition of an item to Fortune's shop (a gift for Dolores), along with some other small details (like animations) - we'll release them as soon as possible (hopefully within the next month). After that, there will be a big patch that we'll try to release in early to mid-summer. It will feature three side quests for the Schultzes, the Princess, and Ethan. We're currently finishing up the proofreading (to avoid, as before, making edits after the text has already been implemented into the game).So, the current stage of the update's readiness is the initial groundwork. The…

- Dev diary #20 - 16 January 2026
Ahoy, pirates and pirate queens!Hold the helm tight - our development ship is back on the air with a long-awaited dev diary! It’s been a while since we’ve had a good fireside chat, but we haven’t disappeared. We’ve been weathering storms, battling animation krakens, and charting a course toward the most important point on the map. And yes, we've been lazy too, of course.Where are we now? The final frontier! The main character has left the Podwodje, and now before them lies the first part of the final, fifth chapter. This is the "final frontier" we’ve been steering this story toward all these years. The entire plot is fully written, and the work plan is mapped out in detail down to the very last dot. We’re on the home stretch (which will last about a year).We had planned to release an update back in December, but couldn’t - due to animation delays. Out of 7 key animations, only 4 are rea…

- Patch 0.7.8 - Cultist's Cache - 30 May 2025
Hello everyone! We have finally finished the long-awaited patch and are ready to tell you what will change in version 0.7.8. As we mentioned in some previous news posts, most of our time was spent on four new scenes with the cultist, which we added to the previous content. The rest of the changes are not as extensive, but are intended to improve certain aspects to make the game more comfortable and enjoyable for you. So, here is a list of all the changes: 1. In the second chapter on the island, we added the sound of leaves to the scene with Benno. 2. Fixed typos in the text that players sent us. 3. Added 4 new NSFW scenes with cultist Sarah (text, animations) to previous scenes (prison, captain's cabin, corridor with cabins). 4. Improved and detailed the sprite of Exana de Jirde. 5. Improved and detailed the sprites of Beatrice and Montel, Benno's uncle and aunt 6. In Dentwon prison, wh…
- Update 0.7.5 - 30 March 2025
Hello, pirates! We're here with the 0.7.5 update. To begin with, we wanted to say that this was the most difficult update for us. And it's not entirely clear why. Everything that could go wrong - went wrong. We redesigned a lot and couldn't understand many things, we procrastinated because of translation problems, but in the end we managed. Yes, some of the details are already on the tests added to the list of the next patch, but the stable basis is there. In this update, you'll have to finally complete all of the Elders' tasks, help the three girls solve their problems in personal quests, engage in resource gathering, and explore locations around the city. So, what awaits you in the update: 12 new artwork 7 NSFW scenes A redesigned trade window, which we'll put in the past content as well More than a dozen new backgrounds 2 original tunes 1 new sprite 5 new mini games Game time increas…
- Dev Diary #17 - 27 February 2025
Greetings friends, the Likho Games team is here with you and let's tell you how things are going and when the update is coming. In January we had an unpleasant situation and had to find a new translator. At this time, the work on the story continuation has been suspended, but we have been busy editing the past content. For example, we added water to the hold during the storm before the island: The last patch fixed a lot of issues and improved the NSFW part. Now everything is back to normal and we are continuing, or rather finishing the update work. The team thinks that we overestimated ourselves a bit and expanded the underwater part so much that the next update (the third of four) is similar in size to the whole first chapter. This is very good for the game and for you, but difficult for us. It just so happens that the “competent” division into releases led us to make the first underwa…
- Patch 0.6.8 - 11 February 2025
Fixed typos in all languages Fixed logic bugs Added 2 new items (folder with Olivia's documents and poison vial) that were missed earlier Animated 20 static frames NSFW scenes are cut with precise addition of sounds Added ability to name saves as you wish Added new missing sounds (sizzling fried chicken, knocking on the door, etc.) Optimized code and reduced weight Hi friends, We are late with the release of the update, but there are reasons for that, which we wrote about earlier. But to make it up to you, we decided to prepare a patch in the form of a bunch of different fixes and improvements of past content. Let's tell you what's changed: First of all, the most important change - there are more animations. We animated 20 static images, including both 16+ scenes and regular images, which became more epic. In addition to these animations, we improved and updated ALL 18+ scenes, intellig…
- Dev Diary #16 - 10 January 2025
Hello, dear players! How are you doing? We're doing okay (not good, but not bad either). Let's talk about the news that happened recently. There are a lot of them. Let's start with the sad one: one of the outsourced artists (that drew 18+ scenes) is leaving us for six months, but she drew all the necessary artwork for that time in advance. Also, the translator has found a full time job and will no longer be working with us. This is sad, as we'll have to find a new translator, bring her/him up to speed, and try to somehow match the past type of narration. We're already in the process of looking, but we're afraid we'll delay the update because of this situation. We'll see how it goes. Well, then, on to the good stuff! We recently took the time to get together at the bar and discussed a lot of things. Most importantly, we finally defined the scope of the game, the lenght. There was a funny…
