Pristine Cut Update:
Beating the "Slay the Princess is not a horror game" allegations.
Not beating the "Slay the Princess is pretentious" allegations.

Bit of a weird question (for fanart reasons), but I have to ask if no one else has yet:
How many legs does the Stranger princess have?

Heeeey!!! Slay the Princess is 20% right now wowww!!!
AND this sale also coincides with a fun little content update that adds a bit of extra pizzazz to the end of the game, INCLUDING a few tracks that have been updated to the live orchestral versions. That's right! A real orchestra!!
And we also just launched a "Cabins in the Woods" bundle with Inscryption and What Remains of Edith Finch which is kind of wildly exciting to me because they're both such good games, and I am absolutely delighted to be spoken in the same breath as either of them tbh.
Anyway, big day for Slay the Princess!! We're still working on the Pristine Cut, so expect news on that later this year, but for now, we hope you enjoy our spring update ^_^
#slay the princess#lots goin on today!!#inscryption#what remains of edith finch#big ol sale#20 percent off babey#indie video games

HOLY SHIT YOURE ON TUMBLR?!?
thank you so much for creating Slay the Princess- i’ve been itching to play it again!!!! it’s such an unique experience and i can’t understate how much i absolutely adore it and its premise!!!
if i may ask, how many different versions of the princess are there? i know you get only a handful each playthrough, but a letsplayer i watched after had some very different experiences.
thank you!
Aw, thank you so much for enjoying the game!! We had a lot of fun making it, so it's wonderful to hear that it left such an impression ^_^
I believe there are... 19 main princess designs? With a little variation depending on choices! For instance, there's a possible dramatic change in appearance in one of the Chapter 3s based on a choice you can make, and another Chap. 3 has a somewhat major change in design and atmosphere depending on how you got there.
And perhaps there are more coming with the Pristine Cut.... perhaps........ 👀
It was a lot of fun to design all of them!
#slay the princess#spoilers#maybe??#i love designing variations based on themes :3#i have been training for this all my life

"abby, scarlet hollow has an unreasonable amount of art in it, what if for slay the princess the whole game takes place in one location so you only have to draw a few different backgrounds"
The location:

It's hourly comics day again!! I believe this was my... tenth year? I am not super sure.
I think this is likely to be my last year doing hourlies-- ten is a good run! I'm so glad people have followed along and enjoyed them every year :3 And of course I love to read everyone else's, too. Hope you all had a great one today~

We're comin for you Umineko.....
Decided to finally go through and size-up how much writing we've done for Episode 5 and it's apparently already 195,000 words long. It'll be about double that once it's done. Maybe more 🙃
For reference: Slay the Princess has ~158,000 words in total.
Episode 4 had ~185,000 words in total.
Anyways please bear in mind that this is the main reason it's taking us so gottang long to put this out. And when it comes, know that there will be much much much much much Content™ for you to explore!
#scarlet hollow progress update#i honestly had no idea I'd already written so much!!#anyway that's why this ep is taking so long lmao
