This announcement had to be published two weeks ago, sorry for that little delay. Four years have passed since the release of D'LIRIUM in Early Access. We did a livestream in Russian (maybe someone will make English subtitles?), in which we discussed how the project has changed over these 4 years, how it started, and what future plans for development will be.
Below I will try to retell the most important thing, because it's really important.
Exit from Early Access
After four years of development, the game has changed beyond recognition. Finally, we decided that it was time to end this. Unfortunately, all these cool ideas of new levels, new characters, a new story, all this will have to be postponed for the future. If I really could, I would keep the game in early access for another ten years. But, alas, we need to release something new, because the game can no longer feed us, what can we say about the budget for the next project. Therefore, I decided to finalize what is ready.
Beta-19 will change D'LIRIUM again
Beta-19 will really be the last update before the final release. We've made a lot of changes to the mechanics of the game, its sound and appearance. This will be another large-scale update that will improve and expand the game. We told a lot about it during the stream, but for those who did not watch it, we will keep the details secret for later. It will be available soon.
D'rectors Cut
Don't think that all the promises that I have given to you will not be fulfilled. After the final release of the game, I will be able to relax, work out a plan, and then do what I should have done from the very beginning. Releasing an extended version of D' as a separate game is a controversial decision. But, having weighed everything many times and discussed it on our Discord server, I realized that this is the right decision. The development of D'LIRIUM was delayed for 4 years as a result of my incompetence in planning and organization, and because of this, we now have practically no profit. This needs to be corrected.
What about The Golden Rogue?
Announcing it was a mistake, because how can you start a new project, based on an unfinished game? Each innovation had to be implemented twice: first in D'LIRIUM, then in The Golden Rogue, or vice versa. If D'LIRIUM had been released in 2019, The Golden Rogue would have been released around the same time, because it was built on the basis of Beta-1. To date, I can't afford to release a game that is technically inferior to the previous one. Therefore, I decided to stop development until I'm done with D'LIRIUM. But know that all these cool features that I am introducing now will appear later in The Golden Rogue, the project is not dead! I do not exclude the possibility that it may see the light in two versions, but we will talk about this another time.
I probably missed something, because a lot of time has passed since the release of the last update. After all this time we have not forgotten about D'LIRIUM. The project is growing and improving, and even after the release it will continue to grow. Thank you for your feedback and support, I appreciate it, because it is you who inspire us!

When the frame rate was set to as low as 30, the frequency of game updates was reduced, which caused problems such as slowing down the rate of fire of weapons. Therefore, the frequency of game updates is now unlimited, and only graphics updates are limited to the set frame rate.
Graphics
The weapon's muzzle flash will now light up the surroundings. At the same time, a muzzle flash item has been added to the graphics settings.
