Gods of the Twilight
Hotfix 11/17
The way we had been using character portraits during some choice menus was causing this to happen, and we've removed all instances of this.
NOTE: If you have a save file where you were experiencing this issue, that particular file may still have the bugged character portrait saved as part of its game state, because that save still has in its history that it was exposed to the bugged menu portrait setting before the fix. Saves that never experienced this bug, as well as new saves, should remain unaffected by it. The fastest way to get back to where an affected save left off would be to use the Skip button to fast-forward up to that point. Apologies for the inconvenience!
Gods of the Twilight is Out Now!
- Discover magic in a world of tech
- Shape the coming apocalypse
- Make friends, enemies, and (optionally) lovers
- Fully voiced dialog!
This multi-season, episodic adventure follows the journeys of dual protagonists Althea and Farkas as old Norse magic returns to their world, and they realize they're more than human.
Faced with unexpected abilities and assassins hunting them for just that reason, they must flee their homes on the city-ship of New Reykjavík and look elsewhere for safety and answers. In the process, they will face gods, monsters, and humans on all sides of the law who could become friends, enemies, or even lovers.
With hundreds of variables tracking your choices and countless combinations of consequences, you decide what becomes of the characters, their relationships, and their apocalypse. How will you end the world?
