Episode 3 of The Coffin of Andy and Leyley Delayed

Kit9 Studios has announced that Episode 3 of The Coffin of Andy and Leyley has been delayed due to unforeseen limitations of the game editor.

According to Progress Report #4, the game editor could only work with a few hundred images for certain categories. This was recently discovered because they hit the cap. This has resulted in Episode 3 being delayed.

They have found a workaround that requires the developers to manually text edit the files outside of the editor. However; this method is time-consuming and prone to errors. To work around this, an external cutscene editor is being developed. This of course will still add time to the overall development. Additional information will be provided in the next progress reports.

The Coffin of Andy and Leyley is a horror adventure game that blends elements of a psychological thriller with those of a dark comedy. The story follows siblings Andrew and Ashley Graves trying to survive a quarantine by taking drastic measures.

The game started as a project released on Itch.io before launching on Steam in Early Access. No launch date has been set but the goal is to have a full launch sometime in 2024.
