v2.5.5

This bugfix build fixes a bug where Mina is not able to use a Bomb Art ability in rare circumstances, even when reloading a saved game.

v2.5.4

Minor graphical tweaks.

v2.5.3

This patch fixes the following bugs and adds a reset feature:


  • Prevents the player from being blown out of bounds on Mt. Kaboo.
  • Players could sometimes get stuck in a Mimic chest.
  • A typo in Pyri's dialog on Mt. Kaboo has been fixed.
  • Pressing Backspace will reset the game.
    This will be added as a menu option instead, in a later update.
    Please note, if you reset the game, any unsaved progress will be lost.

v2.5.2 Hotfix

This minor hotfix tweaks one of Whiskur's hints for solving one of the Mansion's puzzles in order to better serve new players.

v2.5.2 Released!

I wanted to push one more update on before the weekend! :)
Update v2.5.2 fixes a few very minor bugs, and adds a few minor things.

v2.5.1

After reviewing player feedback, I realized I was able to quickly correct a couple of issues multiple players had.
Those issues being:


  • - Unable to move while throwing bombs.
  • - Invulnerability frames lasting too long.

Both changes have been thoroughly tested, but if any issues are found, please report them to the bug thread. :)

v2.5 Hotfix

This hotfix fixes a dialog typo in Whiskur's dialog.

【Crystal Story: Dawn of Dusk】Postponed Release Notice

Thank you so much for your support, everyone!

I'm Kou from Flyhigh Works.



We are proud to announce that we will be releasing 【Crystal Story: Dawn of Dusk】! However, after we released a demo version on 02/02/2022 and reviewed the development process with the developer, Fred Brown, we have decided to postpone the release.

Please read the following message received from Fred.

Hi everyone! This is Fred Brown, the Creator and Designer of Crystal Story.
Time flies, doesn't it? It's hard to believe that the Crystal Story: Dawn of Dusk Demo released a month ago.

I was elated to finally be able to share with you all a small, bite-sized piece of a project that I've been cooking up for the past couple of years. The feedback has been tremendously helpful and energizing in my quest to make something great.
With that being said, there is so much I'm still learning since Dawn of Dusk is my first real foray into the indie game scene.

I originally set out to have Dawn of Dusk completed by the end of 2021, but after moving into 2022 and wrapping up the Demo Version earlier this year, I knew needed to make a change of plans.
One important goal I set for myself with Dawn of Dusk was to set a "benchmark" of sorts to see what I'm capable of, and in doing so, I hold myself to high standards in order to meet those expectations.
The ultimate goal, and the most important goal, however, was that I wanted to make the best game I possibly can for you: the players!

After working closely with my publisher, Flyhigh Works, we have decided to try a no-pressure schedule in order to do one thing: make this the absolute best game I possibly can!
Flyhigh Works' feedback has been indispensable, and I'm working very closely with their team and taking their advice to heart in order to make the game awesome!
Before signing off, I want to thank each and every one of you for sticking with the project all this time.
The love, support, sharing, and feedback has been tremendously helpful and motivating for me, and I am eternally grateful for it all.

At the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU ALL for your continued support, and I hope to deliver one of the best games I possibly can!

The message above was received from the creator, Fred.

We sincerely apologize to everyone eagerly waiting to play Crystal Story, and we appreciate everyone's patience.

Also, once a month or so, we plan to share our development progress in the form of Creator Letters with everyone. We hope everyone will continue to keep an eye on Crystal Story!
