Muv-Luv Alternative (マブラヴ オルタネイティヴ) - Jason@The Muv-Luv Team
Hello everyone,
We're so happy to announce that Muv-Luv Alternative : Total Eclipse English localization is finally happening, and we're releasing it on Steam this coming winter 2021!
Added Game Volume Option & save the setting for subsequent playthroughs
Added Music Volume Option & save the setting for subsequent playthroughs
This setting turns off the volume for everything except the Music
Bug Fixes
Teleportation & Dash Locomotion modes now work as intended
Fixed many issues with the menu buttons where physically pushing them would cause unintended behavior
Fixed issue where pressing the Tutorial menu button and Save button quickly would cause the button to be activated, but the save sub-menu would disappear
Fixed issue where the left hand menu laser would not be facing the correct direction
Fixed issue where an open tutorial widget would cause duplicate hands to show when the game was manually paused
Developer Commentary
Volume control has finally been added as requested by a few testers! Other than that, teleportation was broken but has now been fixed, and pressing the buttons on the menu instead of using the laser is no longer buggy.
As mentioned in a previous update log, we are working on new content and features under the hood. These are, of course, invisible until they're in a state that's good enough to be played in the playtest build. There's now a Trello board if you want to see what's next on the development roadmap: Cry of Athena Trello Roadmap

With this update, we are introducing the Hollows as a first pass implementation, and that’s why this update has taken a bit longer to release. You can now access the Hollows for five islands: Lupa, Feral, Amorak, Sunken and Garm. As we develop the Hollows feature further and take player feedback onboard, we will add the remaining islands.
In addition to this, we are still working on addressing bugs, as well as optimizing and improving the player experience. We have introduced a Quick Access radial menu for Food Stash, changing Loadout and Emotes. Hold Z to bring up the menu, highlight the required icon and then release to select. You can also tap Z to eat the highest health food item in your inventory, which was something a lot of players wanted for the middle of battle.
Once again, we thank you for all your feedback, support, and ideas you have given us for the game. The team really appreciates it.
