Happy Summer Sale!
I'm happy to announce that Gone Fireflies is now on summer sale with a 40% discount.
The game received some tiny little updates last month to fix a few things and to give a final touch on the pacing.
We also got a few positive reviews this last month so make sure to check them out if you want to learn more about the game.
It has been 2 months since Gone Fireflies was released on Steam so I thought it'd be a good time to give it another small update as well as a price adjustment.
Since launch, the game has received multiple updates that fixed many small issues with the dialogues system and especially the pacing both receiving a lot of attention during those 2 months. This update is no different, I once again focused on the pauses, the transitions and the characters movements to further improve the experience.
While all those updates definitely fixed a lot of things, it also made the game slightly shorter than before. At launch, an average play-through would take between 90 and 120 minutes to complete. Now, It takes somewhere between 75 to 100 minutes to finish the current version depending on how you play and the path you take.
With that in mind, I gave the game a price adjustment that, in my opinion, fits more adequately its scale and size.
The game also received a couple reviews recently so make sure to check them out if you want to know more about the game:
I can't thanks enough the early players for their nice words and valuable feedback which helped me a great deal at fixing and making Gone Fireflies a better game. Thank You!
I wish you all the best,

Update: Pacing, New Font and More
Hello everyone,
Here we are again with another small update for Gone Fireflies. This time, I primarily focused on the pacing of the game after getting some valuable feedback from the players.
The issues with it since launch were how I implemented the dialogues, the transitions between scenes and some unnecessary characters movements and pauses during cut-scenes which made the game slow and hard to enjoy at time for some players. I spent the last 3 weeks fixing the whole game scene by scene, reviewing every dialogues, transitions and characters movements so now, hopefully, the game has a faster pace and less waiting between the playing parts.
Now, Gone Fireflies is and always will be a slow paced, narrative focused game so while my goal with this update was to make it less frustrating for the players, I also tried to keep the mood and the spirit of what this game is about.
The game has also a brand new font and tons of little fixes here and there.
Patch note:
Fixed and reduced the time of scenes transitions
Fixed and reduced the time between dialogues in many places
Removed Unnecessary Characters Movements and Pauses
Thanks a lot for stopping by and feel free to hit me up in the forum if you have any questions or issues with the game. I wish you all a great time!

Update: Version 1.2.0
Hi everyone,
A small announcement here to promote version 1.2.0 for "Gone Fireflies".
This should be the last important update for a while since I've been working on most of the small issues that still needed fixing since the "Dialogues and Achievements" Update.
I tweaked a lot of little things here and there, fixed a weird sound bug present at the hospital, reworked a lot of the dialogues, added more details in a few maps and included more things to check while exploring the different parts of the game.
The game also has a brand new and cleaner title screen.
