Slay the Princess Player Choices Survey!

Hey folks!

We hope you've all been enjoying the new update (and if you've only bought the game after the update dropped, we hope you've enjoyed your first playthrough!)

We'd like to get some baseline player data before you al play the Pristine Cut so we can see how the new and expanded chapters change your thoughts. And there's also just some other player data we'd love to see about how you've played!

So we've got three surveys for you:

A general survey: https://forms.gle/6qTkNoJWnBSB2HdE8
A new Princess ranking poll, this time separating the Chapter III Princesses out from the Chapter IIs, as well as including options for TSM and the base Princess ^^: https://strawpoll.com/05ZdWooYlg6
A similar ranking poll, but this time for the voices: https://strawpoll.com/kogjk33o8Z6

We're really excited to see what you share!

(Also, work on the Pristine Cut is continuing to come along splendidly, and we can't wait for you all to see what we've been cooking. It's Very Good (IMO))

All the best,
Tony and Abby

P.S. We know that a lot of you have been itching for translations. Please keep your eyes peeled for a big announcement later this year!

Hotfix April 1st

Fixed a bug where an end game Princess sprite was placed too high on the screen.

March 28th Update Patch Notes

Hey folks!

Here with a small update fixing an assortment of minor issues and tweaking a few things.

Music

Adjusted the volume of "Transformation" and "The Apotheosis" to be a tad louder. They should both have a bit more oomph now.
On the note of "Transformation," adjusted the point where it starts playing such that the opening swell more organically flows into the first animated sequence.

Usability

Added hotkeys for quick saving (F5 on keyboard and left shoulder on gamepads) and quick loading (F9 on keyboard and "Back"/"Select" on gamepad)
The "controls" menu should now accurately reflect the gamepad layout.
Mapped a button to toggle self-voicing on gamepads (L2)
Added an optional toggle in the preferences to turn off the flashing click-to-continue buttons.

Cheers,
Tony

Hotfix 1 (March 28th PM) — Fixed the one-time tooltip that you receive after clearing your first loop to reflect a remapping of the skip button on gamepads.
Hotfix 2 (March 29th AM) — Fixed a small number of display bugs.
