Castle of Shikigami

Castle of Shikigami V1.0.4 Released (BGM playback fix)

We just released version 1.0.4 with the following updates:


  • Fixed BGM not playing on some systems
  • Other minor improvements


Apologies for the delay in getting this fixed: it wasn't something that came up during testing or (obviously) we would have addressed it before launch.

Edit (6/25):
If you still have problems with sound playback, go to Options and switch "Auto detect sound device" a different device then select "Back" to save settings.

Please make sure you have the latest OpenAL drivers installed too.
One other possible cause could be multiple sound devices (monitor via HDMI, USB headphones etc), so if the problem persists, please try unplugging any sound devices you can and rebooting the game.

Don't forget the score contest (details here) either!

All other issues reported in the bug report thread are being looked at.

Castle of Shikigami V1.0.2 Released

We just released version 1.0.2 with the following updates:


  • Added option to switch screen orientation (Settings: Screen rotation)
  • Added ability to use directional pad or analog stick by default
  • Added missing resolution settings


NB: to enable borderless vertical/tate display, please switch the UI to either Classic or Nothing (Settings: UI style).

The reported lack of BGM playback for some users is being worked on as we speak; we hope to have a fix for this soon. Apologies for the wait.

Don't forget the score contest (details here) either!

All other issues reported in the bug report thread are being looked at.

We just released version 1.0.1 with the following updates:


  • Jingle on Game Over added
  • Fix for minor text errors (English only)
