Greetings to all senpais! Especially our senpai-est itch.io beta players.

As AI2U's Steam Early Access release is tomorrow, here's what our itch.io playerbase can expect:

• VERY IMPORTANT: The itch.io version update matching what will appear in Steam will not be immediately available due to stability reasons. We expect to catch it up to speed within 1-2 weeks of the Steam EA launch.
  • Following that, we will work to update both versions simultaneously so you can enjoy the latest updates on your preferred platforms.
• The Steam and itch versions are two separate platforms, meaning your accounts and player profiles do not sync.

In Case You Missed It

Next Version Update

• The upcoming version update includes a level progression system; players will need to complete level 1 to unlock levels 2 and 3.
• Meanwhile, your in-game achievements will not be affected and remain the same.

Steam Keys for itch.io Players

• We will gradually roll out Steam keys to our pre-EA itch buyers; this will occur in batches due to limitations to how many keys Steam lets us generate at a time.
• Steam key management and all communications take place via email; keep an eye out for support@alterstaff.io in your inbox!
• For transparency: Players who buy AI2U on itch after the Early Access update should receive their Steam keys immediately as part of their itch purchase.
• Discord Contests: Given our rollout process, we cannot promise you will receive your Steam keys immediately—but you'll still get 'em! Kindly wait for further instructions from our Community Team. We will ping your vanity role and/or DM you with updates as they come along.

As always, please email support@alterstaff.io if you have any questions or concerns or need support with your itch account.

We know our players are eager to play the latest version on their platforms of choice! We appreciate your dedication to our lovely yanderes and can't wait to finally lock you up with your faves 💕

Yandere'd,

~AlterStaff 💖🔪
