I really hope that Khemia it's only on a temporary hiatus right now and not just permanently put on hold or even dropped completely because even though this might not be starting out as well as Adastra did it still is a continuation of that and I would love to see where it all goes if there's ever a chance for it to start up again on the creator's own time of course (?).
He switched to Interea since it's a story he's wanted to do for a while and is using it to help better set the historical background for the Khemia story and some of the characters. This is currently on hiatus, but not abandoned.
I know it sounds kind of silly but I CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT DID NEFERU AND SCIPIO HAD SEX OR NOT!!! Did they just touch, kiss, hug? Or did the team left out the details on purpose? Can someone illuminate it for me please?
Well, for what i know, Interea is just a explanation of some events during Adastra. While i like to think that Interea takes place 8 years later (presumably when they get back together), Khemia takes place after Interea (since in Interea, Marco still hasn't started his mission). I just hope theres a Real sequel after Adastra/Interea, where Marco and Amicus get to be together again.
Not exactly, Khemia takes place ~2.5 years after Marco return to Earth to do his 8 year mission.
Interea is very useful in that as well as telling the story of the wolven moon tour, it's providing historical background to the Khemia story and it's characters (Brunis for example).
I haven't played this one yet (I just barely started interea) but are we gonna be able to see Amicus and the MC reconnect? I really, really, really hope that we can see their story (well.. continuation of story I guess), was very heart broken, but hopeful at the end of Adastra. But honestly great VN you guys, glad I got to read it!
This is a wonderful world and have loved the story from Adastra, for now I can say I can relate to the character Scipio I… I-I had that self-doubt like him before… so it is great to see it been addressed in a game with lovable characters.
sidenote: Scipio is kinda goofy looking with the glasses, je~
Can the Echo Project or anyone else provide me with a gallery of every Neferu pose? From Adastra, Khemia, Interea...
I like the sprite designs even if Khemia is different from Adastra but more importantly I would just like one of every Neferu pose/scene if anyone can help with that. Thanks :)
You can easily find these in the game files (at least on PC) Go to the game files (here I'm guessing it's Khemia?) Khemia-2-win->game->images-sprites->neferu And there you will find all the poses Hope I was able to help!
I recall reading someplace (not sure if it was Patron or Twitter) but Interea is only supposed to have 10 chapters and we already got the third one. So later this year perhaps, but we likely will not have to wait for next year. Interea is important because is setting the background for a number of things in the Khemia story and so should reduce the number of flashbacks/rehash of things that would otherwise slow the Khemia story down.
i have several question rn about the history, i love the history, but maybe i miss some scene about adastra (ik i can play interia and see some of that missing scenes but im not complety sure about knowing the story well) but im gonna play this sequel and hopefully get a liitle more informed abou the history of course enjoy this beautifull story with his chars. Do ur best writer :D!!!!!
The game is not going to be updated for a little while. The project is currently on hold due to a lack of inspiration (so I've heard).
The writer is writing another game happening in the Adastra universe:
Adastra "Interea" (receives monthly updates)
Interea focuses on events that are only summed up in Adastra. Therefore, you'll have to play Adastra before playing Interea, or Khemia (Since Khemia's a sequel to Adastra).
Think I will wait for it to be finished As not to do the wash rinse repeat thing for every update I truly enjoyed Adastra and can't wait to see how the humans story continues in the future
It is official, yes, but no, it does not follow up with the Human. Here, you play 2.5 years after Adastra as a Wolf named Scipio, going to Khemia for... well, you gotta play the game ;P This story will focus mainly on Neferu and his family/backstory.
I say "will' because the game's dev is currently on hold. The actual gameplay's 30min long.
The writers are focusing on another game that takes place during Adastra: "Interea"
A new year, a new era of waiting. One where we remain patient for the return of Scipio and Neferu and their journey to the homeworld of the Jackals. I honestly check this VN every day for a new update or anything, even though I know it won't happen anytime soon... Still, I'm hopeful as we enter another year that it will be worth it in the end. Happy New Year's, everyone! And stay safe out there, we're all in this together. And a wish of luck to Echo for their projects this year.
Well Interea has started up again. The third installment was made available (Patrons only though right now) so things are moving along again. Hopefully things will keep moving along smoothly.
I would suggest reading Interea since it's setting up the background for things and people later in Khemia.
Adastra is the first game you should play of the three games available.
Interea is a side-story (some sort of spin-off) happening during Adastra (in the Adastra, what's happening in Interea is briefly summed up, in a few lines).
Once you played Adastra, you can either choose to play Interea, or Khemia, a sequel to Adastra happening 2.5 years after the events of the main game. Keep in mind however that Interea and Khemia are still under heavy development, therefore you'll face a "To Be Continued..." 20min after you started playing.
The hiatus is still in effect but I want to say this is a great sequel to Adastra. We'll be looking forward to an announcement to the continuation of Khemia. Scipio is one of my favorite MCs, Neferu as a love interest would be a great excuse to hangout more with our favorite jackal and a look at a different setting
I know this is on hiatus, but I wanted to just leave a note to say I really enjoyed this build and I'm eager to see where the story goes when you are able to continue it. Scipio is adorable. I really empathized with him when he was able to get his first in person look at Khemia, and like him, I'm very much looking forward to seeing the surface.
I've made a post a millennia ago regarding my/our desire to experience more of Khemia over Interea. Surprised to see a large majority agrees. Honestly bummed out about the hiatus but understandable whether there was writer's block, priority restructuring, whatever the case may be (not to mention settling drama with another dev...) as long as EchoProject remain transparent and communicate openly with us.
I too really want to see what natural settings Khemia has in store for us. Bewildered to learn that Egypt once had lush forests!
That or marco is going back to adastra and since the stretch drive marco could also visit his family now and again but God I would wanna see when marco and amicus reunite
I would not agree to extraterrestrials migrating to Earth. Our planet is unreasonably overpopulated, mankind is sinful, destructive, and disease-ridden, not to mention that resources have been exploited exponentially ever since the inception of the Industrial Revolution. You can only dream, though.
You forget something though, if humans get the stretch/warp drive you can bet there would be a mass exodus from Earth to the rest of the Galaxia. Humans were uplifted and abandoned by all the current Sibling races and as such humans would have the right to go anywhere in the Galaxia for having once been their "children".
Humanity my very well be the mortar to bind all the Galaxia races together (I'm pretty sure that's part of the Parents plans since our race could never resist going out and exploring). So if we are out there, you can bet they would want to come to Earth, if only to visit. But plenty would stay simply because our planet has things that remind them of their own homes (ie. the Sahara desert is just like the entire planet of Khemia).
As for all your negativity, well that's your issue. But on the point of resources, once humans can reliably get into space and back we would mine asteriods and other space bodies and get more from them then we would ever get from Earth. Our solar system has millions of floating space bodies that could be mined, not even counting the existing known planets and their moons.
Of course the whole Avia Pox thing would need to be solved first.
Negativity, my issue?😆Sin, destruction, and disease of mankind are REAL! They are everyone's issue! Your soliloquy is cute though, I'll be honest with you.😆Which begs the question: why did the sibling races abandon mankind, I do wonder~? Whatever the case may be, I stand firm on my conviction. I also disagree on the notion that mankind expand into the cosmos because what we do here, we will do elsewhere and everywhere. Satellites having been lost and discarded in space are but the first of many ways in sullying the already perfect universe the Parents created for those being worthy of humanity (do not confuse with mankind). It is not a matter of being negative, it is a matter of being realistic.
There are two worlds based upon your premise - the objective material world and the subjective human world. There is nothing inherently flawed or wrong regarding the world outside the human experience. Consider a rock, branch, and vine. Then comes the monkey who had the grand idea of making a tool with said rock, wood, and vine and going apeshit on a fellow simian because they acquired the mate they wanted. The tool and its natural components are not the issue. Who we are and what we do are consequence of our existence and choices. Remove the human element, the world would be peaceful.
there was actually another update, it just doesn't have a development log update. still though, the hiatus was supposed to be over by the end of the summer, and it's now october, so, we'll see what happens i guess!
This really needs an update. Loving it so far. Please don't abandon it. however, I'm not a huge fan of how the design of the characters was slightly modified after Adastra.
Well, three years have passed, and I know these guys don't age same as us, but personally I like how he's just sliiightly different from the Adastra design c:
*Upvotes* but I also really want Interea too. That feels more laid back and romancy and honestly in comparison to some things I just feel like we didnt get enough interaction with Amicus in Adastra. So there is that craving... But I am also super hyped and curious about the future and what happens after Marco/MC gets dropped off and all the earth politics that goes on and how the jackals and wolves plan to get along with their new alliance (in the making). It's real real hard to decide which I want more, but because I am more of a sci fi geek I am a little more willing to put down the romance for what Khemia has to offer. I really hope Howly does an update for this VN within this year though. It doesnt 'have' to be on hiatus.
Unlikely, since Howly will no longer participate in the community because of drama, likely from a certain creator for a particular VN which has been lacking updates for several months here on itch.io. Unless their own drama resolves (perhaps until after the pandemic ends due to personal, private reasons), like Khemia...Howly will also be on hiatus, unfortunately.
I am pretty sure two people having an argument wont cause one or the other to shut down. It is likely the toxic fans who are to blame. And honestly people in the furry community are way too sensitive and dramatic that it is so easy to troll us. It's like they were the kids of parents who contacted the admins to get people banned instead of just hitting the mute or ignore button. Poof you go on a site where that option doesnt exist or it is too easy to loophole and now no one knows how to handle difficult people.
If I am not mistaken, Howly said it was the drugs/violence in the story that got it put on hiatus. It's difficult to write these topics without being affected by them. Although I like to read them every once in a while I would rather the writer take care of their own health first.
I wonder when you will make the next update，or no longer update.你怎么还不更新啊？I have waited for the next update for really a long time.I really love the characters in Khemia,so I don't wanna this project will be suspended.快更新吧，哭死.Pardon me,my English isn't skilled,but I really look for ward to the next update.😭😭
Hey yall, do any of you have an idea of how long of story we got for this installment? I wanna be sure i savor as much content we have rn so I won't stay as hungry haha.

Y'all made a new one but why haven't y'all finished these
Interea is also helping to fill out character pasts and background history for Khemia as well.
Well Amicus's Parent mission is to unite the 16 Sibling races, so potentially 14 more stories depending on the authors' intents.
I really hope that Khemia it's only on a temporary hiatus right now and not just permanently put on hold or even dropped completely because even though this might not be starting out as well as Adastra did it still is a continuation of that and I would love to see where it all goes if there's ever a chance for it to start up again on the creator's own time of course (?).
hey, why does amicus look different? The original was so good and on par with his personality:(
it's been a year daddy..
Why was this abandoned? 😭 🥺🥺🥺
He switched to Interea since it's a story he's wanted to do for a while and is using it to help better set the historical background for the Khemia story and some of the characters. This is currently on hiatus, but not abandoned.
I know it sounds kind of silly but I CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT DID NEFERU AND SCIPIO HAD SEX OR NOT!!! Did they just touch, kiss, hug? Or did the team left out the details on purpose? Can someone illuminate it for me please?
They just had some intimate cuddles, nothing more if I remember correctly
i like to think they had sex in my head cannon they did
i need more ;w;
I have a question for all the people
I just finished Adastra ( and it was... AMAZING).
But .... Now i dunno where to begin next.
Do i read the beginning of Khemia or Adastra-Interia next ?
Tell me what you think is the best ;)
Well, for what i know, Interea is just a explanation of some events during Adastra. While i like to think that Interea takes place 8 years later (presumably when they get back together), Khemia takes place after Interea (since in Interea, Marco still hasn't started his mission). I just hope theres a Real sequel after Adastra/Interea, where Marco and Amicus get to be together again.
Interea tmakes place before Marco returns to earth. Khemia takes place 2.5 years after the return
Wait, doesnt Khemia takes place 2.5 years before Marco's return to Adastra?
Yes it does, but some people are still confused. So here's a timeline:
- Adastra first
(DURING Adastra, Interea, focusing on some events happening in Adastra)
and 2.5 years AFTER the end of Adastra and BEFORE the 8 years, Khemia
Not exactly, Khemia takes place ~2.5 years after Marco return to Earth to do his 8 year mission.
Interea is very useful in that as well as telling the story of the wolven moon tour, it's providing historical background to the Khemia story and it's characters (Brunis for example).
I'd say Interea takes place after the whole Cato situation until Marco leaves Adastra for Earth to fulfill his embassador stuff
I haven't played this one yet (I just barely started interea) but are we gonna be able to see Amicus and the MC reconnect? I really, really, really hope that we can see their story (well.. continuation of story I guess), was very heart broken, but hopeful at the end of Adastra. But honestly great VN you guys, glad I got to read it!
....again... please... Amicus....
No, a reconnection between Amicus and Marco is not likely, at least not in this game. Maybe in the future
hmmm maybe in a sequel of a sequel sad face
This is a wonderful world and have loved the story from Adastra, for now I can say I can relate to the character Scipio I… I-I had that self-doubt like him before… so it is great to see it been addressed in a game with lovable characters.

Go to the game files (here I'm guessing it's Khemia?)
Khemia-2-win->game->images-sprites->neferu
And there you will find all the poses
Hope I was able to help!
thank you
Is this Visual Novel on hold indefinitely, or temporarily? I can't remember if this hiatus was suppose to be permanent or not.
I'm in the middle of playing Khemia and I can't help but-
Of course, this is just a personal preference, not to mean criticizing the latest sprite design. please don't get mad ~
this looks WILD
Let's be real. This vn probably not going to be updated for YEAR (until Interea is finish) and it sad because this one is my favorite :)
I recall reading someplace (not sure if it was Patron or Twitter) but Interea is only supposed to have 10 chapters and we already got the third one. So later this year perhaps, but we likely will not have to wait for next year.

Yup, definitely wait for next year.

Will that be NSFW scenes?
when the next update? is there daily update set?

After human left Neferu feels lonely until Scipio come. Neferu feels like he's with a friend again. i felt its gonna be more than friends 🤣.
Come on, You should've put more pictures during scipio and neferu sexual interaction.
Wouldn't mind seeing Neferu shag Amicus again~
Still wouldn't mind seeing Neferu shag Amicus again~
It's been a year since the last build was released. I really hope this vn hasn't been abandoned just yet...
there was actually another update, it just doesn't have a development log update. still though, the hiatus was supposed to be over by the end of the summer, and it's now october, so, we'll see what happens i guess!
It is now November.
It is now December
oxo is this update but not say in development log?
Quick question: Is there a route or romance option with guy that has the bionic arm?
No, not bf simulator.
This really needs an update. Loving it so far. Please don't abandon it. however, I'm not a huge fan of how the design of the characters was slightly modified after Adastra.
Well, three years have passed, and I know these guys don't age same as us, but personally I like how he's just sliiightly different from the Adastra design c:
hey if theres an update how do i update the story?
Honestly, I would trade Interea updates for Khemia updates...I/we want to move on into the future to reach "to the stars 2!" Upvotes if wanting!
*Upvotes* but I also really want Interea too. That feels more laid back and romancy and honestly in comparison to some things I just feel like we didnt get enough interaction with Amicus in Adastra.

上面已经说了，目前khemia停更，在更新Interea。
Hey yall, do any of you have an idea of how long of story we got for this installment? I wanna be sure i savor as much content we have rn so I won't stay as hungry haha.
about two hows of content for khemia
