Haven Update: Meet the new Yu and Kay
They love each other, but they can’t be together, so they do what anybody would probably have done in this situation: escape to an unknown planet.
It is all the tale of HavenA romantic space adventure featuring two couples who try to keep their relationship together despite all odds. What are the two lovebirds? You will find out in this article. Couple UpdateThe question is now more intriguing.
HavenOriginally, you could play Yu the hot-headed mechanic, and Kay the cautious biologist. The free update adds Yu, the hot-headed mechanical, and Kay, the careful biologist. Which means you’ll now be able to play with Yu & Kay, Yu & Kay, or even Yu & Kay.
Still confused? Ok let’s clarify a bit: while HavenYou could play originally as a heterosexual couple. Now you can play as the same-gender couple.
This could seem like an insignificant change but it is a significant one. Haven being a game about the freedom to love whomever you want, we’re really happy to provide more ways for players to identify with our precious couple.
Whoever you chose to play, the main story won’t change, nor will the personality of the characters. Their design, animations and models will all remain the same. And their voices too, as Lexie Ann Kendrick (Kay), and Ryan Highley, our voice actors, will completely re-voice the entire 80,000 words of dialogue.
As a writer I was interested in how these dialogues might translate to the new couple when we started work on the update. Some of these may sound strange. Unnatural? After all, I wrote Kay as a man, and Yu as a woman, didn’t I?
Surprisingly, I discovered that pronouns, minor details, and almost all other elements could not be changed. The alchemy among the characters was unaffected.
As if characters weren’t determined by their gender. As though men and women could have similar interests, thoughts, and feelings.
Funny.
We hope you’re as excited as we were to discover or rediscover your favorite couple. Oink, for once, can’t wait to meet his two new moms. Or dads.
