Hello! This week "officially" concludes chapter 7 and begins chapter 8, although I still have a few loose ends I'd like to tie off before I can remove those quotation marks. That said, we're excited to be starting the next chapter of our journey. To celebrate the conclusion of chapter 7, our new public build is coming as soon as NEXT WEEK, so that's big news for our non-patron followers! It's been many months in the making, so we hope you're looking forward to it. Without further ado, the patch notes for our latest release. - Nym Version 0.77.1 - 3-29-2019 Added new scene illustration (Beatrix!) Added new dialogue to cove residents for the end of chapter 7 Added new dialogue to Mar’Liore in chapter 7 Added Carvannah refugees to Mar’Liore in chapter 7 Added new playable Carlisse portion Added Petrova cutscene Added updated residential area for the beginning of chapter 8 Fixed an issue where two of Mercy’s reaction portraits were swapped

Hi, everyone! This week's build, version 0.76, is the patron release of what will eventually become the next public build, which means it's not far off! This ALSO means the save compatible grace period is approaching its gruesome end. I expect support for old save files will end around after version 0.78, so apologies in advance for that. I'd like to take a little time this week to advertise some of our other outlets as well, especially since many people have an (understandable) aversion to Patreon's increasingly problematic business model. You can find us in a bunch of different places: Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3xsrvi8aQM Twitter: https://twitter.com/IndoorMinotaur Itch.io: https://indoorminotaur.itch.io/daughter-of-essence Game Jolt: https://gamejolt.com/games/daughterofessence/336983 Discord: https://t.co/Ia3YoXhfdy And soon, we'll also be expanding our subscription service beyond Patreon to other comparable sites, as requested b

Here's last week's patch notes - sorry for the delay! Version 0.75 - 3-15-2019 Added a new NSFW scene! (F/F/M, harps, size difference) Added new scene art! (Replaced the old Bell & Mercy illustration) Added new harps to Grey Clarion Added nestmother’s chambers Added Eastern Spire Market Adjusted fruit stats and prices (again) Adjusted alcohol stats and prices Added new equipment to the game Fixed an issue where Marlan’s dialogue still appeared in Grey Clarion on loot checks Mercy can now correctly ride Orus in Grey Clarion The overworld now properly enables player followers Fixed a passability error on the Eastern Spire bridge Added items and secrets around Grey Clarion Fixed a sprite issue on a harp The bedroll in Grey Clarion no longer has Mercy’s dialogue while controlling Marlan

Happy release day, everyone! Same as last week, it's split between two builds (to continue for a little while longer): one that is compatible with ALL old saves, and one that requires a v0.73 save or newer. The old save compatible versions will be phased out eventually--probably once I wrap chapter 7 up and make it public. I wish there was a way around this, but alas. I'll make sure to ease the pain somehow. Also, if you haven't yet, check out our brand new trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3xsrvi8aQM As for what's new, the notes are listed below. Until next time, Nym Version 0.74 - 3-8-2019 Added two new areas to Grey Clarion (WIP) Added several new harps to Grey Clarion (WIP) Added new Mercy-specific events and dialogue to Grey Clarion Grey Clarion is now accessible by ship in Ch. 7 Added a new New Light scene post-Wilkes encounter Added a new forest area accessible from the overworld Changed the cooking menu to say “Cook” instead

Hi everyone! We're pleased to present the latest weekly & alpha build, version 0.73! In fact, in much the same way that a Robert Frost poem might, this build diverges along two paths: one with additional features that is NOT compatible with old save files, and one without those additional features that IS compatible with old save files. These builds will be very explicitly notated, so you don't have to worry about getting the wrong one. However, if you're not far along with your save, haven't tried the game yet or are even considering starting over from scratch with new decisions and a new build, you'll definitely want to pick up version 0.73.1. The final consideration is that at some point down the line, the old save compatible versions will stop. It's simply too much work preparing two very different builds every week, but I didn't want to cut everyone off cold turkey. That just seemed rude. My current approximate deadline for that is with t
