Well met, Kindred.

From Poland with Love has opened on Steam, and Oaths & Ashes is part of the lineup. The event is organised by Untold Tales and runs until August 3rd, putting a week's spotlight on games made in Poland. That is us.

Two protagonists carry it. Alice Lytelton, a Ventrue operative sent into the city with a Justicar's authority. Lenz, a Thinblood alchemist surviving its underside. One city, two very different ways to fall through it.

Here is what changed:

  • We rewrote the story in response to your feedback.

  • Reworked the controls. You can now use the arrow keys to move between dialogue options and Space to confirm a choice, and Space also advances the scene when there is no choice to make.

  • Improved the audio. Music, ambience and sound effects now play and trigger the way they should.

  • Journal upgrades. We fixed existing entries and added new ones.

  • A new rendering system. The game runs more smoothly, and we added animated character portraits.

  • A dedicated Linux build.

And the best part: you can still play the Prologue, now new and improved. It is free, it runs about two hours, and it begins in Paris at the Opéra Garnier with a hunt for a Toreador who walked away from the Camarilla. Whether this is your first night with us or you are coming back to see what we changed, there has never been a better time to step into Berlin. Vampire The Masquerade Oaths Ashes PROLOGUE
