Greetings, Pomorians!

Today I have decided to release v.0.1 of Iron Borders. There is still a lot to write, edit, programme and enhance, but I am very much dedicated towards this project.

Meet the world of Euriza,a fictional Europe based 1960s cold war is in full swing. You try your best to live a normal life, but you have to either support the regime, or stand firm against it.

Main branch of the project will include another character, and this version is both a placeholder and lore-filler. Sonia Yagodnaya is a young party activist. You will get to see how it was to live the life of a Milicja captain's daughter in a dystopian society.

Currently, the progress is as follows:

- Some Dialogues are complete

- Some descriptions are complete

- Introduced branching story

- Some graphics are done, at least as temporary placeholders

- Obtained some music

To do:

- Completely write the story into Ren'Py - I am not a programmer and it takes me A LOT of time to get it all done.

- Implement all images, scenes, backgrounds and characters. I have most of these at a hand, but I do not know how I can implement it in a feasible way.

- Add more music, sound effects and voiceovers - Yes! Iron Borders will have all of these, and voiceovers will be region-dependent, that is - Pomorians will speak their language, Suebians their own, and so on.

-Work on proper image scaling and adding simple animations, such as character transition. For now, no matter what I try, images just snap - hence in this demo, you cannot see the progress of animation effort.

I will probably also upload early alpha fragment of the main story that involves Mstislav - our main hero.
