Yaaay hello hello! It's update day!! The journey truly begins now. Please enjoy! I'll be taking a small break after this update, so please come and pester me. Let me know what you think!
Info on the Patreon update can be found and played here. (Total WC: 80k+)
Update WC: 15k+
Total WC: 65+
Story:
- 12 years has past… You’re an adult now, how much as changed since then?
- Name your new companion
- Reconnect with the past and meet some important figures in the Empire
- Have dinner with the Empress
Features + Changelog:
- Customize your adult character. (More indepth with more options)
- Added name suggestions in both adult and child customization
- Choosing your backstory (soldier, scholar, diplomat) will give you a list of stats.(Str, Con, Dex, Arc, Cha) They will increase via actions overtime, but you can also gain stats by having certain items in your Armoury. (Which is implemented, but no items will be gained in this update)
- Player information Page:
- This page will store most of the information on your character as they grow and change throughout the story.
- Features: Physical descriptions, working personality stat bars, alignment stat bars, character stats sheet
- Childhood segment of the game comes with its own mini stat page with physical descriptions. It gets overwritten after the time skip.
- Armoury/Inventory:
- The armoury is where all item, weapons and trinket you've collected on your journey will be stored. Some items will increase your personal stats, which will help you to pass stat checks. You will be gaining items for the armoury in the next update. Key items will not add stats unless stated otherwise, they consist of items you've collected on your journey so far like your mother's pendant and you festival trinket (if you had one)
- Codex: You codex is where you can look up information on major locations, items, nations, peoples and creatures. It’s relatively sparse at the moment, but more entries still be added over the course of the game.
- Codex Entries: Empress Maeve Nibel Astrea, Prince Vayne Nibel Astrea, The Empire of Nibelheim, the Church of Eostre, the Kingdom of Brigid, The Fissure, The Wastes, The Soteria, Adamantine.
- Cast Page: I actually forgot about this one. But if its working, it's because it was from the early alpha. I will come back to it in the next update.
- A few UI changes for better user experience for mobile users. The Player, Codex and Armoury as been added to the Footer of the interface for easy navigation.
- Colour theme changes for mobile users will come in another update.

Hellooo! For some reason both of the menu ui's on the top and bottom take up a lot of space and only leave a little bit of space for the text to be seen. It makes it harder to read 😅 This is only when I run it on mobile. I would love if they were collapsable so that the reading experience can be smoother! Thank you so much for this update 🫶🏻💕
I also found a save error on pc. I cannot save no matter what I do ^^;;
Okay I’ve fixed it to the best of my ability. Everything should be working now!
The template I use is a very finicky with shrinking the header and footer on mobile (or in general) . May I ask what phone you’re running with to have a better idea of the dimensions?
I have an iPhone 6 Plus and the game has lots of space when played vertically.
I use an android s22 model phone! I completely understand the finicky dimensions. I'm actually in the process of making an IF game too, but I'm stuck in the UI phase because it looks good on desktop but not mobile 😅 I wish it were easier to make everything fit.
