Miss CastleWood Build 0.1.255 (Hotfix 2)
🕑 Added 2025-02-19 22:56:41 +0000 UTCLatest hotfix should have the gallery up and working along with a bug fix that locked off girls on a second playthrough. Thanks for being patient while we figure this out!
Mac here, PC here, Linux here.
If you joined at the $15 tier since the test release last week, we got your name is in the credits!
Abbey joins the contest in our second update! She's got a sex scene, ending and new location to discover. New to this update is a gallery mode, though we're still in the early stages of getting it to work consistently so the male skin color might be random at times in the viewer. Expect this feature to evolve with each update.
Speaking of evolution, Kal and I have also been talking about the scope of the project overall. Initially Miss CastleWood wasn't intended to be a "sequel" to the first VN. I thought of it as more of a straight up old fashioned dating sim than an adventure. But the more we talk about what we want to do, the more adventure-like ideas start top creep into the conversation.
As always, feedback is greatly appreciated. What would you like to see in future updates? What works and what doesn't? In any case I hope you like what we've got so far and thanks for supporting while we figure this out!
PS: Kal also says that you can now use the left ctrl button in place of the left mouse to click through dialogue.

Thank you so much for playing!
Reinbach
Noted, thank you! :)

Guys, I little suggestion: it'll be great if you include an option to return to main screen/main menu on the ESC action.
Lukas West
Played it and LOVED Abbey's part of the game. The extra effects added whilst she talked makes this game as good as the VN.
Vylon Delta
Oh right; you mentioned that before, and I totally forgot it. Thanks
MstrJerby
Ok! Was just wondering. Personally not a fan of nipple piercings, so I was curious if we'd see her new tits before she gets the piercings.
Licorice Lain
looking forward to doing more
Reinbach
Great work on Abbey's scene, thanks as always!
Reinbach
Well put, that's pretty much what I would have said! XD
Reinbach
Thank you for reporting, guys!
Reinbach
Probably not just yet? This game takes place a few months into the future, even if it is a non-canon timeline.
Reinbach
Not impossible, maybe? That's more Kal's area but it might be more doable in the future now that we're working in Unity.
Reinbach
Hey good to hear!
Reinbach
Thank you! And yes we're going to try and go bigger with each update if we can. :)
Reinbach
Sorry for the hassle, glad to hear you got it working!
Reinbach
I will say it's not exactly "romance" that you get with Abbey here. It's much more transactional than that in a way that I feel keeps her in character. And this game is only loosely canon because I want everyone to be an option regardless of their relationship status in the comic. That way we can get people like Miss Holt and Elianna in there. :)
Vylon Delta
Isn’t Abby being a romance option breaking cannon? I’m not complaining, but I thought Abby was gay?
Widil
Well for me the game is unplayable, after talking to Megan I just got the background and no dialogue option. Problem solved looking at other comments. Just move the mouse to the upper screen to open the inventory to find character of interest
kaldonis
thanks for the suggestion :) I've got it noted down for potential improvements. The hotfix that's out should of removed the extra tracker for the time being.
Jayson
I honestly think you guys should go nuts with it. Like, I'm ready for bikini adventures. First game was outstanding.
ArmlessJohnBR
Sorry, I started to type about this issue and distract myself. When I hover them mouse pointe on the top of the screen, it showed two trackers. If I select the first one, the tablet with the contestants are showed, but when I select one of them, the tablet didn't close and I don't have any button/option to close it. I have a suggestion: please, include an HUD indicator, or tooltip to activate the Tracker ;)
kaldonis
Thanks for reporting, I believe I might know what's causing this now, will investigate and get a fix out ASAP.
kaldonis
This sounds like a strange bug, sorry its acting up. What's happening exactly ? Are you seeing two trackers in the inventory? What's suppose to happen, is you get a notification that you recieve the tracker, the notification dissappears off to the top left and then only one should be in the inventory. Are you using an old save? Which platform are you on?
Graci
I can tell you right now, that "more adventure elements" and sequel will be always welcome, by me at least.
Kyman201
Yeah I got stuck with the first tracker. Thanks for the heads up, I'll try the OTHER tracker.
Jordan Christmas
Any chance of an android release?
MstrJerby
Are Abbeys nipples pierced in trw at this point as well?
ArmlessJohnBR
Yeah, I figured out that after post here. But there is two Contestant Trackers, and the first one does not close after selecting a contestant.
kaldonis
if you mean after you get the contestant tracker? if that's the part just scroll up to the top of the screen and the inventory will drop down.
ArmlessJohnBR
For some reason, after talk with Morgan, I can't do anything. Does it ok?
Licorice Lain
It is kinda canon adjacent. There is some overlap between the main book and some stuff referenced in the game, but the core event is its own little plot culdesac, like a beach episode in an otherwise serious anime.
Deano
I can't remember if it's supposed to be canon
Licorice Lain
My second contribution (the little gremlin)
