Classic | Night VI | Password | UI Update (Patreon)

You puff out one cheek, considering how to respond. "Wasn't it? In truth, I suppose I don't know what is normal in matters of intimacy, but I am fairly certain it isn't regular for two men to share a woman, let alone at the same time."

"We did not share you at the same time. We took turns," Valdricht corrects.

-Classic Route, Night VI

Per usual, launch date proved optimistic. I’ve been debating how to roll out the upcoming scenes for a while. Players from the original Bride of Shadows will know what is on the horizon for our vestal, but newer players may be going in blind. Just a heads up, both the end of this chapter and the beginning of the next chapter will contain some scenes of violence that may make you uncomfortable. I’ve refrained from going into graphic detail.

UI Changes

Now, before you dive in, Night VI isn’t the only new thing you’ll find in the app. I’ve implemented the first phase of our new UI, which will be finalized with the Classic Night VII update next month.

The UI is getting a major overhaul later this month. You’ll see the first look at it with our new light and dark modes, as well as a few new settings and, at long last, detailed save files. Have a look.

The new UI is finished, but I need to bug test it and give you all time to export saves. I’d encourage you to start over if you're inclined, because aside from cleaning up bugs, improving the menu, mobile optimizations, adding music and sound effects (which you can turn off), and major improvements to Wyransith and lore tooltips, there will also be bonus scenes.

Night VI

Night VI contains several hidden variables, a set of which I already discussed at length in the preview post. You’ll also have the option to flag your character as bisexual, I think the choice is fairly evident within the text so I won’t spoil anything.

You’ll also get your first taste of seeing what it will be like to choose what you want to do in the mornings and evenings. As we transition into Act I, nights will give you a lot more freedom to choose what you want to do, rather than just being ordered around by the guys. Unless that’s your thing. I’m going to make a very in-depth post once Night VII launches that way everyone understands how the game will change.

I’ve also tightened the pregnancy time-line further, that way we can move through the core story faster. Again, we’ll talk about all this next month. For now, I hope you enjoy Night VI. Next up, we will have a Dark Maiden update at the end of this month, as well as the long-promised Dark Maiden Alt POVs.

Sorry if this post is a bit scattered, my brain is mush from coding and playtesting, but I’ll be back tomorrow with a new post I think everyone will be quite happy about.

Edit: After I wrote this I tested the new Itch password and saw that my saves are gone. I don't know if this is something unique to me, however my saves on Vercel are completely intact with the new update, so I'm hoping it's just my browser as I haven't played the Itch version in a bit. Fingers crossed.
