New Content Update!
🕑 Added 2021-12-22 19:48:18 +0000 UTCHi everyone, long time no see! I'm very pleased to report that a new content update has gone live today featuring a long list of improvements, fixes and even brand new content, including Steam Achievements!
At some point later today (soon, I think!), the Steam Winter Sale will start and the game will also be 33% off, in case for whatever reason you didn't yet own a copy on Steam.
If you are a patron, you will be able to opt-in to the special patron-only build on Steam which features a nice little bundle of bonus goods when starting a new game, including a patron-exclusive item. The code for that will be available at the same link as before, which can also be found on our main Patreon page under the "Patrons" line near the top.
I'm very grateful to everyone who has remained a supporter until now. This may be the last content update to Daughter of Essence for a good long while, since I would like to work on something else for a while. But who knows what the future holds? The fact that so many of you all here at all is still really incredible to me.
Much love,
Nym

All the alpha and beta builds from before the game officially launched are still technically accessible, but long out of date. Long-time patrons can receive a download link though if they reach out. I'll send you one now.

I may be missing something here but it would seem I have to essentially pay for the game twice . . . through my support of you here and the fact steam wants me to buy it from them ?!?! Is there no direct method of downloading it?
In the immediate future, I'd like to finish a novel I've been working on since before I started DoE! Once that's done I have a few more game ideas, it's just a matter of time and money.

Do you know what project you'll be working on next?
