-This article is WIP.
 The Kemoverse game is a realization of part of the Kemoverse and the pre-Tuner story as a playable game.
-The basic idea is that the game will be an online social experience, much like Second Life with less customization, but also like The Sims with less God mode. The primary focus will be interactions with your co-players through emotes, mini-games and other cooperative activities. It will also focus on exploration and interaction, so the world will be detailed and have almost all of it available to walk on to. There is a visual novel side to the game as well, providing a world and characters from the Tuner story to let you dwelve in to the Kemoverse.
+The basic concept is an interactive, story-driven adventure/freeroam type game that tells the imminent story leading up to Tuner: Kat and Mika starting college together and gaining friends and enemies. The primary objective will be story progression, of which areas and in-game features are unlocked for free travel. Focus will also be on interaction with the world, such as moving things around, dressing up, or simply walking around.

-In the summer, I got busy with life/school and dropped this project in favor of others. However, in December 2018, I took a look at my project once again and decided that it needed yet another reboot due to the new Prefab workflow in Unity that fundamentally changes how you create premade assets. The Editor itself had also matured, which contributed to my decision. So far, I've re-made the user interface to be sleeker and more fitting to the theme, reorganized the scripts to be more aligned to the component design model, and generally improved everything. The plan is to make a formal design reference sheet for the entire game.

The Editor itself had also matured, which contributed to my decision. The plan is to make a formal design specification for the entire game, from start to finish, and to actually produce a demo that can be played for a showcase of the basic functionality.
+As of April, about 30% of the demo functionality and 10% of the overall functionality is in place.
