I absolutely adored this. I was sat at work today, excited to get home to finish where I had left off the previous evening.

I have to say... Aeden's has to be my favourite route. I had fun with all of them, but I felt like Lucas' & Dragan's endings were far too bittersweet for my poor sappy heart! I ABSOLUTELY cried during the ending scene for the two of them.

Also, my favourite character is Pix - I would die for that funky little pollinator. With a close second being Astora herself - sometimes, when a protagonist is already a well established character, there can be a clash between what the player wants and what the character does. I never felt that frustration with Astora. She is strong willed, beloved, and her lack of knowledge/thirst for answers never comes across overly naive. I also love that despite being human(ish), she is generally portrayed as being on an even playing field with the ROs in one way or another.

This was honestly so wonderful. Can't wait to see what you cook up in the future.

I love this! I play my own little tweaked and extended version of Lineage and I'll take any excuse to add more roll tables to it!

How exciting - I have no idea what to expect from his route!

But this also feels bittersweet as this is it for Gilded Shadows, right? (Even though I know its going to be on my replay list forever haha.) Thank you for all your amazing work on this (and Changeling!); I'll be eagerly watching the progress of When Stars Collide!

Never!

I'm so excited! 

Maybe I'll do another run through to reacquaint myself with the boys while you're working hard...

I'm so so so excited! When Reuben's route dropped I ended up staying awake until 1:30am so I could get through it in one sitting! And then over the next week I played through everyone else's routes again (might have even played some of them a couple of times...).

I love the Gilded Shadows world - I love the Gilded Shadows characters! Can't wait to see what Yuu's route has in store for us.

Oh my god, look how cute that smile is!

I absolutely adored the other routes, so no doubt you'll knock it out of the park with this one too. Very excited!!

Thanks so much for clearing that up! Can't wait to sit down with it proper and give it a go.

Hello hello! Just a quick question about Hazards, if I may. Sorry if I'm just being dumb, but when you choose a hazard in the introduction is that the only hazard that can trigger in the run? For example, if I choose a person as the hazard, I only need to be checking for that trigger as I continue?

Sorry for all the replies, but I wanted to pop a fix here in case anyone else runs into a similar problem.

(only a Windows fix unfortunately) once the game is running, hit SHIFT+G and there should be options for RENDERERS. Mine was by default set to "Automatically Choose". I have now set it to one of the options and its fixed.

I just wanted to add that I've restarted the game already too.

Hi there! I'm having a strange visual bug...

It started as simple as looking like this when you save over a previous save:

But that was the extent of it for my first run (Ari).

I've started up a second run to move on to Caissa and skipped through some of the common bits I had already seen, and now my main screen looks like this:

Sometimes the dialogue is also funky and unreadable. Loading a save will clear it briefly, but then suddenly the MC will lose her eyes, or something as drastic as Jack happens as above.

I thought perhaps it could be something to do with my PC, but I haven't ever seen anything like this before, and it was almost perfect on my first run (bar the saving screen) and only started during and after skipping.

Anyone have any thoughts?

All fixed! Thanks very much :)

Happy launch day!

Sorry to jump on this straight away - it might be that you're still in the process of straightening everything out! However the "Ending Walkthrough" link takes me through to a blank .pdf that says "No preview available. File is in owner's trash." Let me know if I'm just jumping the gun!

I adore games like this, so I had to buy. Have given it a quick spin and love the concept so far!

Not sure if I've missed something, but we're supposed to remove all the 10s from the deck, yes? I can't see it mentioned in the prep, but none of the suits have 10s included.
