I cannot change the date on the store page, but Season 2 will come out tomorrow.
Since the sales for Alice Lorange Adventures Season 1 are pretty bad - 14 copies sold since release, a new low for me - Season 2’s sales will decide if I do sequels or not.
I would love to do more Seasons - since I like to write a lot! - so, if you liked Season 1 and if you want to see Alice Lorange in more adventures, please buy the text-based game. Thank you.
First of all, big thank you for playing Oddinary Highway demo and adding game to your wishlists!

Thank you for your comments and have a nice game! :)
As part of today’s update, we’ve added a new map with a twist. Welcome to Nettle Cavern!
Nettle Cavern is an adventurer’s playground where you can practice and experiment with new tactics. Here, you’ll be able to explore the combat potential of companions, party compositions, and Formations in The Waylanders’.
The purpose of Nettle Cavern is to provide a practice area for your party. Winning battles found in this extensive cave won’t provide gold or XP, but enemies will be waiting every time you return to the cave. As you gain experience in the game, you’ll be able to return to Nettle Cavern to try new strategies, abilities, and formations of your leveled up characters.
Nettle Cavern will be available once you have completed the quest called "Back to Life".
Keep in mind that you can save your game in Nettle Cavern. You can repeat a specific combat anytime you want. We invite you to experience new combat strategies at Nettle Cavern and share them with the community!
HOW TO PLAY: NEW TUTORIALS ADDED
We’ve added new tutorials at the beginning of the game during the mission "Journey to Inisfail". These tutorials will help players better understand certain key elements of the game, such as the Codex or the mini-map.
We have added two Codex entries in the “how to play” section to complement the new tutorials.
GAME EXPERIENCE IMPROVEMENTS
We have added autosave points every time you visit the ship to avoid having to repeat certain parts of the story whenever you experience a game crash
We have added new autosave points, triggered by completing certain important milestones in the "Back to Life" mission
We have improved game flow of the mission "Back to Life". Now, objectives are more clear and understandable
MAJOR BUG FIXED
Some users experienced a bug which freezes the game due to memory instability. This is now fixed. As memory leaks are complex, it could happen again and we are monitoring for future instances. Please contact us via Steam forum if you find this issue during your game again.
THE WAYLANDERS IS IN CONSTANT IMPROVEMENT
Many of the new features introduced in this update are previews, prototypes, and early releases of some things we haven't included in the Early Access yet. We will report new improvements soon!
KNOWN BUGS
Some users reported the enemies stand still without attacking in some situations. We are investigating this. The quick solution at this time is to save your game and reload it. Quick travelling to a different map location and coming back works too.

Another update to 1.1.3 unstable is now available! This is version 1.1.3 unstable 3.
The changes in this 1.1.3 unstable 3 update are:
New huge negative diplomatic modifier added when a player backstabbes another player (when a player declares war on an ally)
New severe negative diplomatic modifier added when a player backstabbes an ally. This modifier is added to all players who are in contact with both and witness the backstabbing.
AI now researches Targeting Algorithms and Evasion Algorithms even more aggressively, especially in the higher difficulty levels.
The Serenity unique ability now provides +3 diplomatic modifier, was +4 before.
The Emphatic Diplomats culture perk now provides +1 diplomatic modifier, was +2 before.
Armor costs now scale the better the armor is. Titanium and Tungsten are a bit cheaper than before while the superior armors now cost more. This doesn't change the armor cost much when going with 'light' hull reinforcement but has a significant impact when going with 'medium' and 'heavy' hull reinforcement since those costs 3 and 6 times more than 'light' hull.
Advanced Evasion Algorithms effect changed from +50% Ship Defense to +25%.
Ultimate Evasion Algorithms effect changed from +100% Ship Defense to +50%.
The Interstellar Geology culture perk now provides +50% to the strategic resources amount instead of providing +1 source for all non-empty sources.
Stun effect moved from Phasors to Neutron Beam, and the stun effect only works with the shields down now. The stun chance increased from 5% for each shot that hits to 7.5%.
Research treaty maximum potential now capped at 15% the partner with the lowest research output, was 25% before.
Beam Accelerators now a weapons level 4 tech, was level 3.
Polaris Missile now a level 3 tech, was 4.
Antimatter-Catalyzed Bombs tech moved from level 5 to level 6.
Quantum Missile now at weapons tech level 5, was 6 before.
Nightmare Missile now a level 7 tech, was level 8 before.
All missiles now require 30 space where before nuclear missiles required 30, polaris 40, quantum 50 and nightmare 60.
Auto-Fire weapon modification now has an aggravated accuracy penalty for each subsequent shot. The first shot has a -25% Ship Attack penalty, the second shot has -50% while the third now has -75% Ship Attack.
Auto-Fire weapon modification now requires +75% weapon space to install, was +50% before.
The ship design weapon modification and several other ship design tooltips are now displayed in lower case.
Fixed a bug where the minimum damage could sometimes be superior to the max damage of a weapon in ship design when the Beam Accelerators bonus was being applied.
Fixed an issue where the 'Ship Attack' value could show too many decimal cases in the ship design UI and combat UI for some values.
Compatibility note: Saves from 1.1.3 unstable 2 are not fully compatible with this new version as most of the changes require new games to be played to take effect, namely the new diplomatic modifiers, the revisions to Serenity and Emphatic Diplomats, the armor costs, the evasion algorithms changes, the Interstellar Geology perk changes and the weapon tech changes. So, it's better to start a new game to properly playtest this new version. Also, all the available custom races will not benefit from the new backstabbing diplomatic modifiers. However, for a quick fix you can 'Edit' and 'Modify/Save' your current custom races and they will be up to speed.
I remind that the 1.1.3 update is not yet available for everyone. To play the latest '1.1.3 unstable 3' version you need to opt in for Steam's Beta branch. On the Steam client go to Games -> View Games Library -> Right-Click on Interstellar Space: Genesis -> Choose Betas tab -> Select the "unstable" Beta branch. The game shall start updating to 1.1.3 unstable 3.
