What changed since the last update (short, spoiler-free):

  • September Montage built and finished. A full multi-phase sequence with A/B/C/D beats, new choices, and mirrored follow-ups.
  • Seven different routes to go through. Every route is different, some significantly more so then others.
  • Updated old images and added more. I changed some of the older images and gifs to shrink the size of the game a bit and to make the art more consistent.
Scope growth: added around 290 passages so the total is now over 650
Art expansion: added around 125 more images and gifs.

Save Compatibility

Some systems/flags were reworked in this update. Old saves may behave oddly.
Recommended:
start a new run for this build to ensure all branches and checks fire correctly.

Tips
As previously mentioned
  • Try repeat runs. To see the different outcomes.
  • Pay attention to small checks and choices. They unlock scenes you will not see otherwise.
  • Also you have different outcomes in the houses depending on how close you are to the House leader.

I normally don't leave any sort of comments but I really wanted to say I've been enjoying your game so far and the path that it is taking! I enjoy games like this that offer freedom of choice, like College Daze, and am looking forward to whatever you have planned for this in the future. Keep it up! I know I'll be playing every update as at least 1 loyal player.

What stat checks do you need to confront Ethera? Even hitting 55 dominance I still can't unlock the other option.

Hi thank you very much. I am grateful for your comment and happy that you are enjoying the game thus far. Providing the player numerous choices that would impact their experience was a primary focus for me. I have seven planned endings, so its a core mechanic.

What stat checks do you need to confront Ethera? Even hitting 55 dominance I still can't unlock the other option.
Hi do you mean "A cold certainty settles in your gut. The other path is closed to you. You simply lack the necessary... aptitude." under the Confront Ethera option? Or do you mean that you can't click it?

If it is the text then the simple answer is that text like that shows up when either your skills aren't up to par or you missed something along the way, that is needed to unlock that special option. In the passage "The Final Days: Sovereignty" if you get the text here it means that you have missed something to unlock the other path. Hope that clears it up.
