Shwmae friends! Thank you so much for the lovely feedback on the Next Fest demo, I hope that you are looking forward to the full release!

I am extremely grateful for you support and reviews - this is my first game and it is entirely solo-developed and self funded - and to have people play the game, enjoy the story and embrace the Welsh myths and references has been very humbling. This small update should address some of the more common concerns that were brought up.

  • Added a Linux package for the demo. I am unfortunately unable to test this myself, so let me know if it all works correctly! Hopefully it will solve some of the issues that came up before.

  • Added a new optional scene for Ch2 puzzle that will allow Bleddyn to complete it so the player can continue with the story.

  • NPCs now have interaction icons.

  • WASD now work in battle and menus.

  • Added input prompts to the party menu tabs.

  • The log puzzles can now be interacted with by mouse click.

  • Fixed a bug where the Maiden's Hair skit could be seen before returning to home in chapter 2.

  • The Ability Tree ability buttons now need to be clicked, instead of just moused over (should make it easier to use with mouse).

  • The party overview UI (shown after standing still for a few seconds) will no longer show during the flashback at chapter 2.

  • Fixed some off pixels in Carys' animated portraits.

  • Fixed an off pixel in the frontend startup animation.

Diolch! Good luck!
