Keychains have arrived!
over 3 years ago – Thu, Sep 03, 2020 at 05:37:55 PM

Your Caffeine Key Chains have finally arrived!

It's been a while since our last update but we have great news here - We've finally received our shipment of acrylic keychains from our suppliers.

The keychains are available for all four characters, 50mm in dimension with 3mm thickness and smooth edges. And of course, their chibi cuteness has no boundaries!

We will begin shipping our physical goods out. However, those that also have their artbooks will need to wait a bit longer as we're still in the middle of printing them out. We will provide you with another update on the Physical Artbook once we've confirmed its specifications.

IMPORTANT: All of you should've have provided us with your shipping address via backerkit. But due to Covid, the production was delayed for 6 months and circumstances might have changed since then. So in the case that your address is different from the one you provided on backerkit, please message me directly, otherwise your keychains might be sent to the wrong address!

June Update: What we've been up to!
almost 4 years ago – Sat, Jun 20, 2020 at 01:42:07 PM

Hello everyone! We'd like to offer you some updates on what we've been up to, not only on the Caffeine front, but also what other games we've been working on recently.

But first, let's talk about...

Caffeine: Victoria's Legacy Digital Artbook Released

The Digital Artbook was actually released earlier this month. Everyone who pledged for the digital artbook would've received their Steam Key on Backerkit.

We've not only included artwork from the game, but also some behind-the-scene facts and lore about Victoria that wasn't included in the game. E.g. the Victorian & Antipodean National Anthem etc.

The digital artbook has 50 pages. Due to cost, the physical artbook will have fewer pages and we are still deciding on what we shall we omitting.

Now that we have the digital rewards out of the way, for the next few months we'll be working on the physical rewards. This is still limited by external factors. So we'll be giving an updated timeline later on.

And finally, I want to talk about some games we've been working on. 

 "The Warmth Between Us" English Release

For the past three months, we've been working with a Taiwan based developer to localize their game into English. 

This 6-hour visual novel has a simple story with a simple setting but is uniquely narrated with character archetypes that are rarely seen in English Visual Novels or even Japanese VNs.  

One night, as Game Designer Nine is working on his script, looking out the window towards the streets of Taipei, his eyes meet with a mysterious girl. In a span of ten days, their relationship can not be described as mere acquaintances, they're not friends nor lovers. But there is a certain warmth between them that they've never felt before.

 Store Page: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1203970/The_Warmth_Between_Us

The story is, in the developer's own words, about the 'warmth between people'. 

Warmth, not the burning passion between lovers, or the pungent kick of an espresso, but the kind of warmth that silently infuses in the dark of night, offering a candle to show the light. It's like a slow-brewed pour-over coffee on a winter's night. A warmth that does not choke, or fade away even when they are long gone. It's simply a story that breaks down the feeling of love, regret, loss into its basic components - A story about the human condition.

We are now offering a total of 3 beta keys to our KS backers. If you want to experience the game first-hand before its official release. Just message me.


It's been a month. Now we'd like you to fill a survey!

It's been a month, hope everyone is staying safe and had a chance to play our game.

It's been nearly a month since the launch of Caffeine: Victoria's Legacy. We, as a developer and publisher, are looking at plans for our next project. That is why we have created a survey to ask for your opinion on what you would like to see us working on in the future:

Note: You do not have to have finished the game to fill in this survey.

Please Complete This Survey for us. It will help us greatly in deciding our future game development plans:

Complete the survey here.

Progress Update on the rest of our rewards:

  • You should have received a notification on Backerkit four sets of wallpaper. This has been sent last week. Hope you like it!
  • Also, we will be focusing on completing the Digital Artbook this and next month, this is scheduled to be completed by End of May.
  • As mentioned before, physical rewards are still on hold due to coronavirus. We will begin production when shipping and logistics are back to normal.

Caffeine: Victoria's Legacy is now Fully Released

I hope everyone is staying safe! It's been a week since we released our game to our Kickstarter backers. Just want to see how everyone is doing, did you get a chance to play our game?

On another note, here is a brief summary of what we are working on the upcoming few weeks:

  • We plan to release our OST in a week's time.
  • We will be sending out a survey in a week or two, mainly to understand what you think about the game, and what you would like to see more of us doing in the future.
  • Feel free to comment below if you wish!

That's all for now. Oh, and if you want to buy an additional copy (I surely don't mind),  here is the link to Steam and itch.io. The game is now 10% off.
