The guide now includes detailed information for the two new contracts added in this update, along with expanded details on pets — now including the skills they learn as they level up. I’ve also added the locations and treasure contents of the gold chests that are now accessible, as well as the locations of new ones that will be included in the upcoming public release.

As always, please continue to send me your thoughts, feedback, and any bugs you encounter so I can address them before the game’s release next Sunday. Also, if you’re interested in being added as an NPC in this upcoming version, be sure to become a Tier 4 patron by Thursday, April 17th. After that, any new NPCs will be added in the following update.

That’s all for this week. Until next time, everyone!

WEEKLY UPDATE!! 3/30/25

This week, I shared a playable version of the game with my testers! They’re currently helping me go through everything to make sure there are no game-breaking issues, and they’re also giving me valuable feedback on the story, characters, and all the new additions in this update. Their input is already proving to be incredibly helpful as I work on final polishing.

I don’t have any new images to share today, but since we’re now in the testing phase, I can confidently say that the next update’s release is imminent. Please hang in there just a little longer—the latest chapter of Crimson Veil is almost here.

Until next week everyone!

 

WEEKLY UPDATE!! 3/23/25

Just a short update this week! I’ve spent the past few days finalizing some of the unfinished rooms in Basilisk’s Hollow, tightening up the script, and importing/scripting a few key scenes. It’s all coming together bit by bit.



Thankfully, I’ve got a full week off from my day job, which gives me a great window of time to really focus. If all goes according to plan, I’m hoping to have everything finalized and a working version of the update ready to send out to my testers by the end of the week. After that, I’ll be giving them a few days to comb through it and provide feedback so I can fix up any remaining issues.

If you haven’t already, be sure to join the new Crimson Veil Discord: discord.gg/Mqz6WGn95j

Not much else to say right now—just that we’re very close, and I’m really excited for you all to dive into the latest content in Crimson Veil.  That’s all for this week—until next time, everyone!
