If you are on Windows and are still having issues with the bug that prevents the game from loading, please try these steps that have worked for other community members:
- In File Explorer, show hidden files by selecting View > Options > Change folder and searching "options".
Select the View tab and, in Advanced settings, select "Show hidden files, folders, and drives" and hit OK. - Then, navigate to this folder on your File Explorer:

Jaded is Released
Notes
- In regards to Jaded's future— we'll be pushing patches out over the next couple of days to fix bugs and make minor adjustments. We don't yet have explicit plans for major content updates, but we'll certainly let you know if so.
- Currently, there is still partial controller support for this version of the game. It should be fully playable on PS4 controllers but support for Xbox or other controllers is not guaranteed. Full controller support is one of our main goals for the next patch.
- We're a super small team (we only have one primary programmer!), so it's easy for bugs to fall outside our radar. We'll work as fast as we can outside busy college schedules to fix issues that happen, and we appreciate your patience! Please report any bugs in the bug reports channel in our discord.
- We'd love to see you play the game, so if you make any kind of content feel free to @shellsnoregames on X/Twitter or post in our discord!

Pricing Update + Release Info
1. Final Pricing: After talking it over, we’ve decided to sell Jaded for $9.99 on full release. We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve built, and this price better reflects the effort we’ve poured into the game.
2. Good News for Current Players: Now that we’ve set up the Steam launch, we realized that if you already own the game now, you do not have to buy it again. The full release will be rolled out for free as an update. Because of this, the previously planned 5-day free period is no longer necessary. Jaded will launch at $9.99 from day one for new players.
Jaded Beta Save Files
Since the final game is different from the beta, your save progress will not carry over into the final release. However, we’ve made sure to keep the beta save file safe and separate!
- Your beta save will not be overwritten or deleted.
- We’ve set up separate save locations for the beta and the full release, so you can continue enjoying the beta version if you’d like.
If you’d like to revisit the beta after the full release, it will remain available for download on our itch.io page.
We can’t wait for you to experience the full game—it’s grown and evolved so much thanks to your incredible support and feedback. If you have any questions, reach out to us in our discord server!
Thank you for being a part of this journey with us!

Jaded Release Update
Ok, so when is Jaded coming out?
We are thinking early December, but aren’t dead set on announcing this as a certainty. We don’t want to make promises we can’t keep, but a release date announcement will happen at some point. As we said before, you will hear from us way more than you do now as we approach release.
Here’s some good news— our master task list is getting surprisingly small. Here’s what’s left:
- 8 more music tracks
- 5 bosses need sound
- 3 cutscenes need sound
- UI sound
- NPCs (writing + drawing + implementing)
- Bugs (currently 75% through the list)
- Credits
We’ve also noticed some confusion about our pricing changes, so let’s clear that up:
If you already own the game, you won’t have to buy the game again— the full release should come in like any other update. As mentioned previously, the game will be at a 100% discount for the first five days after release, and then will cost $4.99 from there on out.
Last important note— since the final game is different from the beta, save progress will not carry over into the final game. But don’t worry— your save file for the beta version of Jaded will not be overwritten or deleted. We’ve created a separate save locations for the beta and final release. That way, if you wish to continue playing the beta version after we push out the full release, you can download it on our itch.io page.
🎉 Jaded Release Month Announcement: October! 🎉
Pricing Changes
We’ve declared in the past that Jaded would release completely free of charge. We still want to honor this, so the game will be free for the first five days upon release. This means you can get and keep the game for free if you get it in the first 5 days - so keep an eye out for more announcements! Still, we’ve poured a lot of our lives into making this project, so we’ve decided the game will cost $4.99 afterwards.
Wrap-Up
We’d like to keep new content under wraps so it’ll be a big surprise when the game finally comes out, but we’ll be posting many more cryptic snippets! Here’s one now:
You’ll start hearing from us more and more as the date nears. We hope you’re looking forward to it! See you all in October! 🎃
