As per the title, they all should be working again!
Many apologies for the long wait on this. As it turned out, due to a version incompatibility with our engine (Ren'Py), we essentially had to work through the entire script and reprogram all of the side portrait character expressions. The newer version of Ren'Py is the only one that works for our achievements, but it also really hated our previous side portrait code, so...it took us some time to fix everything. :(
However, everything should be up to date now! If your achievements don't activate, try uninstalling and reinstalling the game. Otherwise, please email us at contact@argentgames.co and let us know what the issue is.
Polish Translation Coming Soon!
We've also been working on a Polish translation! It's mostly done but needs to be proofread a bit more. Polish fans, keep an eye out!
Thanks so much for all your support! <3

In this Gothic story of deep bonds and chilling mystery, a young girl named Esther ventures deep within a forgotten forest.
There, she seeks out a potential cure for her mysterious illness:
a life-leeching plague known as the Pale Cachexia.
But when Esther meets Seina, who lives all alone in a towering manor, the two girls are drawn to each other in a tale of friendship, sorrow, and bitter loneliness.
Their story is shadowed by the dark secrets of the manor and its cemetery, which haunts Esther even in her deepest dreams.
The game is planned as a (relatively) short project to experiment with storytelling and new VN techniques
As with all our Ren’Py games, it will release on Windows/Mac/Linux and Android
And that’s it for the big announcement! If you have any particular questions, join us on Discordor check out our weekly dev streams on Twitch every Saturday, starting at 7:30 AM PST/10:30 AM EST! We’re always happy to answer questions there, and now we’ll be working on some Pale Cachexia stuff openly as well.
Thanks so much for all of your amazing support, and stay safe out there!
