Hello! Olivine Arc has informed us that Steam Keys will be sent to Kickstarter backers and Itchio pre-orderers in the next few days.

It's tricky to say the exact price right now because there will be a launch sale. Please check back on release day!

Based on the budget, "Velvet Bite" is planned to have an AA game price point.

You'll be playing as female MC.

The full version will be released as a paid game.

Yes, January 31st is our current target release date! We plan to finish debugging and polishing this week, so barring any unforeseen issues, we should be able to stick to this timeline. 

However, depending on the circumstances, we might need an additional 3-7 days, so we won't be able to confirm the exact release date until QA is complete.

The game's now been reviewed and accepted by Steam, and we're in the final polishing stages, so we expect to be able to release it at the end of January 2025!

Glad you're interested in our games! Based on the budget, "Velvet Bite" is planned to have an AA game price point.

Hello! There seems to be some misunderstanding, so we’d like to clarify a few things.

First, "Softly, With Teeth" Kickstarter project was conducted by Olivine Arc (Aubry K.), the lead of Studio Chiffon. swtkickstarter@gmail.com is Olivine Arc's email address.

EVERIUM has simply purchased a license from Olivine Arc to use "Softly, With Teeth" and has no involvement with the Kickstarter project itself. However, Olivine Arc requested that we allow their Kickstarter backers to enjoy the newly created game, and since we thought it would be ideal to satisfy as many people as possible, EVERIUM promised to issue steam keys for the completed game and provide them to Olivine Arc.

We are not sure where this misunderstanding came from, but based on the agreement, Olivine Arc is responsible for the distribution of “Velvet Bite” steam keys. We believe this is the most appropriate procedure because, legally, EVERIUM does not have the responsibility or the authority to handle personal information and contact details of "Softly, With Teeth" Kickstarter backers.

EVERIUM has never received any payment from "Softly, With Teeth" Kickstarter backers. We hope you understand that our provision of “Velvet Bite” steam keys is an act of goodwill to protect the visual novel enthusiast community.

Currently, we expect “Velvet Bite” to be completed in January 2025, so we plan to deliver the “Velvet Bite” steam keys to Olivine Arc after completion. Please receive your steam key from Olivine Arc.

We hope this explanation was helpful.

Hello there! Thank you for your interest in our game.

If your suggestion is regarding an official collaboration: Currently, we do not have plans to officially support any additional languages beyond those we currently support.

If your suggestion is about fan creation: You do not need our explicit permission to create fan content for our game. Feel free to do so.

We hope this answer is helpful! 

Thank you.

We expect the full game to be around 600~800 MB.

The credits are included in the game's launch trailer, so you'll be able to check them out very soon!

All of our studio staff members have professional experience in ACGN. Freelancers we have hired include individuals who have worked on high profile IP projects and engineers with experience on Netflix titles. The voice talents we've hired have experience working on projects with Disney, Marvel, Riot Games, Blizzard and HoYoverse.

At the moment, we're focusing on releasing the game on Steam and Epic Games Store!

Unfortunately, we can't answer that question at this time. A Nintendo Switch game requires developer approval from Nintendo. Our current plan is to release the PC version first, followed by development of the Nintendo Switch version!

Thanks for playing! Our web version of 'The Winter Tower' is still in alpha, so there may be some issues - for this reason, the Side Story is only on Steam. Thank you for your kind words!

The game is in the final stages of development and we expect it to be finished within a few weeks. We'll update as soon as we have a confirmed release date!

Thank you for playing our game! EVERIUM LLC is a U.S. registered company, and our games are developed by a team of talented individuals from diverse backgrounds, including China!

Velvet Bite will be released as a paid game on Steam!

We're planning to release an updated version, possibly as early as this week!

We used the term amare because, as we understand it, it commonly includes the following elements. Please let me know if we're misunderstanding anything!

• Girl X Boy Romances
• Girl X Varied Romances

We are referring to the following link for the definition of the 'amare game'.

We're currently on track for a late November release!

Thank you for your interest! 

We've released three otome VNs since 2021 and are currently developing two VNs with female protagonists. We believe our current path aligns best with our creative vision, so our focus remains on creating games with female leads for now. 

There are many talented devs creating amazing games in the amare genre on itch.io, and we believe you'll find many games that meet your needs!

Hi there! We're really sorry to hear about your problems. Just to be clear, we're a separate entity with a license to use the original work. All of our "Velvet Bite" production funds were self funded by Studio Everium. We hope this clears up a lot of misunderstanding.

Added #female-protagonist to the description and tags!

Thank you for your feedback! 

We are currently working on updating the second demo, and will also fix any bugs or typos.

The bonus route characters do not appear in the demo, as they only appear in the mid-game. However, we will positively consider creating an update version!

Hope this will help! 

Our MC is a female character.

The demo is intended to take approximately 15-30 minutes to complete, though playtime may vary.

Great work!!

You may see an "unsafe" warning when running software without a certificate. We downloaded and tested it on our Windows machine and it worked fine, so it's a bit tricky to pinpoint the exact cause.

Here are some common solutions that might help:

(1) Try deleting the game files you downloaded earlier, and then re-downloading the entire game. This will ensure that you have a clean copy and eliminate any possible file corruption issues.

(2) Double check that the downloaded files have been fully extracted from any ZIP folders. EXE files usually won't run directly from a compressed archive.

If you are still experiencing problems, we recommend that you try the web version (browser version) of the software. We have received 0 reports of the Web Version failing to run.

Yes, Everard is a romanceable character. ☺️

MC can be seen in the trailer and CGs!

Hi! Thanks for leaving such a sweet comment!

The art took a lot of its inspirations from the original work "Softly, With Teeth". We loved the art direction of the original game so much!

Our game script is all done, and the six romanceable characters introduced on this page are the only ones we have. But we do want to say that we all love Robin! 🤗

OMG this is SO CUTE OMG
