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.
It is and it isn't. It's a sequel because the events that take place in this game happen about 2 years after Adastra, and it's not a sequel because you don't play as the human but as a wolf named Scipio. I think this game is more of a Scipio x Neferu type thing, plus a Khemian adventure.
This project is currently on hold (the author was having some writers block) and instead they are working on Interea. Interea take place sometime during the last 9 months the MC from Adastra was on the moon before returning to Earth. The Asastra story briefly touches on the tour of the Adastran moon's cities by the MC and Amicus but Interea goes into detail about that trip (They also help setting some of the background details that will probably become important in Khemia).
Once Interea is done the author plans to return to work on Khemia (which takes place around 2.5 year after the MC returned to Earth).
ohhh, I understand the artistic blocks, the truth is I only mentioned it as a joke, I understand that this type of thing is not done from day to morning, hopefully soon we will have an update
It should automatically sync your save files. It is all done in the %appdata% renpy file. You can also delete saves from there if you need to, such as in the case of organizing or wanting to completely get rid of a VN.
Other than that, just feel free to delete your old game and download the new one without worry.
Adastra 2 is a far cry. Events leading up to (8 years worth) need to occur first. Khemia is the closest thing to Adastra 2 we can ever get as of now. Someone said the author might focus more on Interea over Khemia, so don't get your hopes and expectations up too high.
Hm, shouldn't it be: Adastra>Interea>Khemia? Interea is latin for "meanwhile" as in "meanwhile in Adastra" considering it encompasses untold events leading up to the end of Adastra.
Quick question, I haven't downloaded it yet for MacOs, when there are updates does it automatically update for me, or do I need to do that mysef. And if so, how do I do that?
Loving Khemia so far! Scipio is really interesting. Just a small detail. ¿Can you add the human/Amicus wedding ring on Amicus sprite? It will be so cute if he got it on (Like the Ending picture of Adastra).
OMG, you're right! Strange how Adastra never directly mentioned Amicus having one. Either that, or I completely missed the dialogue (which I highly doubt that). I agree, he MUST have the ring on to remind us of the future despite the near decade-long struggle in the present.
Hello, I just entered the world of adastra, can someone tell me if we will play with the human again? is that the story seemed very good and I would be bad if I did not return

is this VN before or after adastra I would like to know so I can go in order, please and thank you.

We don't see the world the way IT IS, we see it the way WE ARE.

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. 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).

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
this is extremely promising! love the story so far
I can't wait to see if Neferu and Scipio will fall in love!
me too their dynamic is so awesome
I'm a little slow but is this a sequel to adastra?
It is and it isn't. It's a sequel because the events that take place in this game happen about 2 years after Adastra, and it's not a sequel because you don't play as the human but as a wolf named Scipio. I think this game is more of a Scipio x Neferu type thing, plus a Khemian adventure.
Hm, yes it's a sequel. It hasn't need to be played as the human to be a sequel
It's a squee(z)quel. Not Adastra 2 (true sequel) but squeezes in-between the prequel and sequel.
how log willl we have to wait for an update? qwq
This project is currently on hold (the author was having some writers block) and instead they are working on Interea.

ohhh, I understand the artistic blocks, the truth is I only mentioned it as a joke, I understand that this type of thing is not done from day to morning, hopefully soon we will have an update
Can't install the android version, just getting the error at the end of installation, pls help:(
If the next update comes how do you replace it with your current file in pc?
just move in the same folder and replace duplicate files
It should automatically sync your save files. It is all done in the %appdata% renpy file. You can also delete saves from there if you need to, such as in the case of organizing or wanting to completely get rid of a VN.
Other than that, just feel free to delete your old game and download the new one without worry.
when is this going to be updated i like waht i have played and want to see waht happens
i hope they will update soon or that they will make adastra 2
Adastra 2 is a far cry. Events leading up to (8 years worth) need to occur first. Khemia is the closest thing to Adastra 2 we can ever get as of now. Someone said the author might focus more on Interea over Khemia, so don't get your hopes and expectations up too high.
whats the order to play these game in?
Adastra, Khemia, Interea, then the rest of khemia when interea ends and work on khemia recommences
thx
Hm, shouldn't it be: Adastra>Interea>Khemia? Interea is latin for "meanwhile" as in "meanwhile in Adastra" considering it encompasses untold events leading up to the end of Adastra.
yes, but i've listed them in writing order, which is liable to provide a better sense of flow
Hi everyone, how are u guys?
as you should <3
I just got here after finishing Adastra and crying thang god there's more
Ill add more when i finish what there is UwU
edit: ok i finished what there was, it wasn't quite what i expected but i believe it can be really good (even if im really just wanting more Amicus)
Quick question, I haven't downloaded it yet for MacOs, when there are updates does it automatically update for me, or do I need to do that mysef. And if so, how do I do that?
you need only download the new file from above, the saves go over automatically because they're stored outside the game itself
Anyone know when's the next update release?
The hiatus is hoped to end "by the end of summer"
Loving Khemia so far! Scipio is really interesting. Just a small detail. ¿Can you add the human/Amicus wedding ring on Amicus sprite? It will be so cute if he got it on (Like the Ending picture of Adastra).
OMG, you're right! Strange how Adastra never directly mentioned Amicus having one. Either that, or I completely missed the dialogue (which I highly doubt that). I agree, he MUST have the ring on to remind us of the future despite the near decade-long struggle in the present.
Russian version please......
Обойдёшься.......
there is Interea, the human is MC as well :)
But Interea IS now under developpement and to be continued, isn't it?
yea, but hey! creators are working on it and we will see more our beloved characters :)
I can ask? , where I can find out if his game is updated version of him or something
R.I.P English:)
For now only pateron
uh....it just says it was made compatible for macOS....not sure anything was added content-wise
What was added in this update?
The macOS version, there's no new content
Oh, ok then.
did this just get an update...?
Yeah, but only to add macOS version
Hey, Wolfman58! Sorry for not replying earlier. School finals and everything ;w;
Anyways, I doing alright. How about you? I hope you share my excitement for a new update soon.
