It's here at last! The culmination of what we have been working on for almost 3 years in total. It's hard to believe it has been that long. The conception of this third part took place near the beginning of our work on IX2. Originally we were just tossing around ideas about making the series into a trilogy but it wasn't until further into IX2's development that we talked more about what to do with the overarching story. At that point we figured out exactly how a third part could fit in. IX3's development started not long after IX2's release. Originally IX3 was going to be a standalone release much like the previous two sets. However, we eventually took a look at what could be done with UMAPINFO and saw there was a way to define episodes. This made me wonder if we could combine all of the sets into one and, with a few more dehacked changes, that's what we did. That and the text screens allowed us to supplement the story we were trying to tell as well as add a bit more polish to the whole thing.
