Its only on hiatus right now, the team is on a writers block, they're working on another project Interea for the time being, but it should be resumed after a bit.
No creo que lo saquen en español si ni siquiera sacaron en español Adastra que son los acontecimientos previos a esta historia, vas a tener que aprender a base de ir leyendo y utilizando el traductor o la página de "WordReference".
Adastra no salió en Español pero la comunidad ha creado una traducción, no es perfecta pero está bastante bien. Te lo dejo por aquí por si lo quieres. Cuando salga la versión final de Khemia seguramente la comunidad hará lo mismo. https://www.mediafire.com/file/nsiw9g1yuriw6ee/Adastra-17.0-esp-pc.zip/file
Yo entiendo perfectamete el inglés pero me has dado una razón para volver a leer adastra por... Creo que está sería la 6ta vez... Lo sé estoy mal de la cabeza pero me encanta esta historia... Y Amicus también 😏😏
Yo también me he visto el juego varias veces y tengo ganas de que digan algo mas de Adastra: Cities que se supone que sacarán este mes. Espero que la comunidad lo traduzca también aunque no sea una traducción perfecta, me quedé con ganas de más después de que Amicus se convirtiera en emperador
Pues, cuando salió Adastra la comunidad Latina hizo un agregado en las configuraciones. La cual otorgaba la capacidad de cambiar el Idioma a Español, Fue de Fans para Fans eso. Así que solo queda esperar a que cuando finalicen este o cuando esté más avanzado hagan otra traduccion de fans para fans
Unfortunately the app doesn't think its available for macOS, when that happens the content creator has to go in and change settings (from my understanding as it was explained to me).
Not sure if Neferu's family has names yet. However, this story takes place a little over 2 years from the end of Adastra. Considering what happened, I'd be shocked if the rest of the Galaxis doesn't know what happened and how the human Marco foiled the Omorfan's chaos plans (the video of Neferu getting kicked in the balls went viral apparently so I'm sure Humans are a topic of discussion).
To me the real question is: Just how much about humans is know?
I would think that Amicus would have taken great care to keep Earth's location unknown and have pretty strict locks on the data COM downloaded from Earth's nexus/internet (even having made nexus on our own is highly suggestive of how technologically advance we could be since we are known to be abandoned).
The Parents hid that information about Earth until Amicus needed a pet which suggests they are being fairly protective of Earth too (for now). Also, since they are getting updates about events on Earth (though they don't explain how) and Neferu is present to hear them I'm sure he's passed on some information. Heck, he got Marco Khemian citizenship and I'm sure even he had to provide some basic information (age, race, species, sex, etc...) about Marco to do that.
Hm. The way the ending of adastra was paced really did make it feel MC and Amicus did have a short time together. I mean that in a good way. Amicus had his duties so it was kind of expected. Makes me respect him more that he is taking ruling seriously and absence makes the heart grow fonder.
It's sad the writer is going through a bump in the road. I love their work and wish them the best. But whether it is Khemia or Cities, I will like their VN regardless. Adastra really picked me up out of depression and I am not even exaggerating. I felt better ever since and now I am in love with the scent of lavender so im buying stuff with that scent (which coincidentally has a calming effect too. may keep me out of depression).
Agreed, but also, it could be quite some time before we see MC and Amicus reunite, and this is definitely gonna help that time pass more smoothly for the fanbase, and also me specifically
yeah i just played adastra this month and my first thought at the end was why was none of that seemingly happy stuff that happened on the tour included amidst the 8 hours of depression lol so it would be nice to be able to see.
So i know a new update is coming soon and have the 2nd update apk file downloaded and played it but how am i supposed to update it on android? pls help
I believe on Patron they said it will be coming out sometime tomorrow. If you are seeing this site through the itch application, the "Launch" button will change to "Update" when the update is available.
I'm wondering is this Scipio guy ganna be the mc🤔 I kinda felt sad seeing a total different person 😕 and sadly enough he had long hair 😢 why me, I can't deny he has a nice build tho 😉
Well, I suppose you'll just have to wait for when we eventually pick back up with Marco and Amicus, after the 8 years, then~! (hopefully not 8 irl years tho)
Anyone having trouble checking out build 2, try reinstalling it, but don't use the reinstall button, do it the longer way with the uninstall and install buttons.
Hello hi for anybody who’s played through khemia until the second build was being made how would a new build for it apply to the build I have downloaded will the build I have just be updated with the new build or do I have to install it and hope that my progress is saved I’m downloading the APK files of the game and because I’m a first time player and I’m really confused and wanna make sure I am able to play the game with ever update that comes hope someone can answer my question thank you
Because it's the next stage of the story, it's a continuation which means it is a sequel, it doesn't have to be through the eyes of the same character as before. ^^ My theory is that while things are being figured out on Earth by Marco, we get to see the Political environment and plot thicken in Khemia with Scipio and Neferu to start having things get crazy! :3
I think the canon name became Marco, because if you don't input a name for the mc, it automatically became Marco, and it stuck so everyone just refers to him as Marco ^w^
In terms of gameplay and story structure, this game is great. In terms of its thematic implications, I have qualms. Certain aspects of this universe, which were present in Adastra, have now become too explicit for comfort in Khemia. Am I the only one who finds a bad taste in my mouth in seeing that our protagonist is evidently afraid of the poor? It seems tactless that, in a story that is ultimately about politics, the grievances of the masses are portrayed as nothing more than a source of trauma for our protagonist- especially when we have seen it established in Adastra that the condition of the Adastran poor is pretty bleak. It is not as if I have no sympathy for Scipio- after all, he isn't the ruling elite he is attacked for being and the attack on him seems motivated more by his breed than his social status- resembling racial prejudice more than class uprising. And, of course, the ideological influence of Cassius that apparently motivated it is flawed (FUCK Cassius). Still, I wish we could see a full and multi-dimensional portrayal of the average and poor people of this society instead of having them serve as nothing more than a bogeyman haunting a cast of aristocrats, bureaucrats, and dictatorial monarchs.
This is a failure common to a lot of political dramas, sad to say. They focus far too much on the great chess matches of tyrants and in those matches the people are only a pawn or a problem to solve, never being portrayed fairly as actual people or having their concerns addressed. I am reminded of Game of Thrones- but at least they tried to depict the average people's interests with characters like the Brotherhood Under No Banners. Khemia, at least so far, seems content to depict the poor and downtrodden's rebellion as nothing more than a nuisance, while it depicts the literal all-powerful imperial dictatorship they rebel against as a cute and harmless himbo. It doesn't help that the "parents" and their contract with Amicus echo the feudalistic myth of the divine right of kings-wherein democracy is seen as blasphemy! The worldview this narrative implicitly works upon is very flawed.
If I were to try and fix this, I would try to in some way represent the actual plight and concerns of the common people- maybe have a suffering everyman as an actual character in the plot, instead of just an eeeeeviiiiilll shadow in a flashback or a trite talking point in a debate. And stop pretending monarchs are cute!
I agree with every individual thing you've said here, but I think you've come to the wrong conclusion. Scipio's beliefs about Adastra's poor are already being challenged, and given Adastra's perspective on all of this, which you mention is better, I think you're coming to a conclusion about where these aspects of the plot are headed far too early, and underestimating the quality of writing we're going to see.
Certainly we shouldn't judge a work til it is complete. But frankly if it does follow Adastra it won't be much of an improvement- that game didn't have a "good" perspective on how its political plots affected ordinary people, it just didn't talk about it as much
While I'd love to go more in-depth on why I disagree, that would definitely go into spoiler territory, and given that this is something of a space for reviews, that seems like it wouldn't be very thoughtful, so instead, I'll simply say that I think you're interpreting the text very unfavorably, and that Adastra agrees with you on many of these political points, and Khemia is liable to do the same. I would recommend replaying Adastra and paying closer attention to the portrayal of the parents, as well as of the Triumvirs and Cato, who the game considers symbols of the Adastran political system far more than Amicus, who is, if anything, working to fix a lot of the issues you present of it's feudalist notions. Additionally, I'd point out that of course a political drama is liable to focus on those who have political power. In short, I think you're looking for reasons to be mad, and overlooking a lot of the nuance that the franchise is clearly going for.
Having a new race just pop up and be Sibling level is not likely to endear Earth to all the other Siblings or still Children races. Since Avia pox is so deadly to humans, maybe one of the future stories will cover a race trying to kill off humans and the race to stop them.

Although currently on hiatus, the story is heading in a very interesting place and I'm enjoying it very much. Keep up the good work

Fue de Fans para Fans eso. Así que solo queda esperar a que cuando finalicen este o cuando esté más avanzado hagan otra traduccion de fans para fans
now reading this one so far 10/10
Is this one available for Mac?
yeah, it's the second download, look at the file names
Thank you! I was trying to download it through the application and kept getting error messages.. but finally worked directly from the site. ☺️
Unfortunately the app doesn't think its available for macOS, when that happens the content creator has to go in and change settings (from my understanding as it was explained to me).
Don't get me wrong, I'm completely fine with a hiatus for this VN, but does this mean that Khemia is cancelled or at risk of being cancelled?
No, just on hold for a planning phase!
Not sure if Neferu's family has names yet. However, this story takes place a little over 2 years from the end of Adastra. Considering what happened, I'd be shocked if the rest of the Galaxis doesn't know what happened and how the human Marco foiled the Omorfan's chaos plans (the video of Neferu getting kicked in the balls went viral apparently so I'm sure Humans are a topic of discussion).

I'm excited for what comes out of the hiatus, i'm just sad that Khemia doesn't work with the Itch app on macOS
OH HELL YES CONSIDER ME HYPED!!!
Oh wait, so does this mean an update isn't coming out today as rumored in this comments section?
Hm. The way the ending of adastra was paced really did make it feel MC and Amicus did have a short time together. I mean that in a good way. Amicus had his duties so it was kind of expected. Makes me respect him more that he is taking ruling seriously and absence makes the heart grow fonder.

YES YES YES
;w; so much for the first build by the end of the month
So i know a new update is coming soon and have the 2nd update apk file downloaded and played it but how am i supposed to update it on android? pls help
Oh God!! ✨✨
So was it supposed to end on them about to go over the plan or am I still on build one cause idk 😅
It wasn't supposed to end on that, no.
Has a build come out this month yet or has it yet to be released?
I believe on Patron they said it will be coming out sometime tomorrow. If you are seeing this site through the itch application, the "Launch" button will change to "Update" when the update is available.
I think it will only come out for patreons though, the public version is usually made available a couple weeks later.
I'm wondering is this Scipio guy ganna be the mc🤔 I kinda felt sad seeing a total different person 😕 and sadly enough he had long hair 😢 why me, I can't deny he has a nice build tho 😉
He's not muscular, he's FLUFFY.
😂
Actually, he's both!
Well, I suppose you'll just have to wait for when we eventually pick back up with Marco and Amicus, after the 8 years, then~! (hopefully not 8 irl years tho)
That's what im expecting lmao
Khemia is already 2-3 years after Adastra so
When is the next build coming out
What are builds?
Basically they're versions of the game.
oh well thank you 😅
It depends on the length of the game, and the pace of and amount of content in each build/update.
Wait, has build 2 been released?
Yes, it has.
where?
It's the current version
Anyone having trouble checking out build 2, try reinstalling it, but don't use the reinstall button, do it the longer way with the uninstall and install buttons.
Hello hi for anybody who’s played through khemia until the second build was being made how would a new build for it apply to the build I have downloaded will the build I have just be updated with the new build or do I have to install it and hope that my progress is saved I’m downloading the APK files of the game and because I’m a first time player and I’m really confused and wanna make sure I am able to play the game with ever update that comes hope someone can answer my question thank you
When the udpate arrives, how do I udpate the game? What should I install? Help please!
When come next build ?
If other Khemians are even a little like Neferu, then a lot of copulation.
I heard the main person (in adastra = you) from adastra died? Is it rigth
Apparently in one of the paths, he does.
Yes. If you make the wrong choices, you die.
You need to play it. It has a couple of endings, it's good to watch them both so you realize what's really happening.
Yeah, it's a disservice to yourself if you don't play Adastra.
don't worry i did many times
when is the next update?
can you make a sequal to adastra please or is this the seccond part of the adastra?
this is the sequel
wait but why do we not play as the human from adastra?
Because it's the next stage of the story, it's a continuation which means it is a sequel, it doesn't have to be through the eyes of the same character as before. ^^
My theory is that while things are being figured out on Earth by Marco, we get to see the Political environment and plot thicken in Khemia with Scipio and Neferu to start having things get crazy! :3
wait what is the human character we play as in the first game's real name? becouse when i played it i named the human character seb
I think the canon name became Marco, because if you don't input a name for the mc, it automatically became Marco, and it stuck so everyone just refers to him as Marco ^w^

I'm just curious..... Is this a squeal to Adastra?
Ok Thank you.
