- Frameland Original Soundtrack Now Available + Steam Spring Sale! - 16 March 2025
Hey friends, We’re thrilled to announce that the Frameland Original Soundtrack is now available on Steam, Bandcamp, and all major streaming services! Featuring 60 original 16-bit tracks, the soundtrack is inspired by classic JRPGs of the ‘90s and (mostly) follows SNES-era limitations — aiming for that nostalgic retro vibe. For the best listening experience, we’re including both high-quality 320 kbps MP3 and lossless FLAC versions. To celebrate, Frameland is 25% off during the Steam Spring Sale! And if you grab the soundtrack as well, you’ll pay even less than the game’s regular price. We hope you enjoy listening to these tracks as much as we loved creating them! Cheers, Mario, Markus & Sebastian https://store.steampowered.com/app/3582680/Frameland_A_Binary_Tale_Soundtrack/

Fix achievement True Leadship not being able to trigger. Thanks for the report @AbyssalZombie
- Advanced Options & Chapter Selection – Update 1.3 - 9 February 2025
This update focuses on allowing you to change the way you play the game. From being able to fast-forward cutscenes to completely disabling the timing part of the battle system, we hope this customization makes Frameland more enjoyable to play for you. Advanced Options - Fast Forward: Fast forward cutscenes and dialogues. While in a cutscene or talking to an NPC press Backspace or RB/R1. - Battle Timing: Disable the timing mechanic in battles for a more relaxed experience. We have heard the feedback, that some players wanted to completely disable the timing component of the battles. Note that this reduces your agency of landing perfect hits and blocks (which are more chance based, when timing is turned off). - Timing Indicator: Whether the timing indicator (crosshair) is visible in battle. Can be turned off for an extra challenge or if you simply don’t like the crosshair being visible du…

- Steam Deck FAQ - 4 November 2024
Launching the game If your game doesn't start up (and it closes immediately again), you can try to using a different Proton version: 6.3-8 Open your game settings from the Steam launcher Go to compatibility Check the Checkbox "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool" Select Proton 6.3-8 from the list My saves from the demo are gone! Unfortunately this is due to the folder structure on Proton being different than Windows, but your saves aren't lost. We are working on a solution to automatically copy these files over, but for now you have to do it manually: First, here is how to get to your files on Steam Deck: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqYgPf4u2yc Close the game. Go to: /home//.local/share/steam/steamapps/compatdata/3247140/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/appdata/Roaming/ Copy the whole frameland folder (this is the folder holding your demo saves) Go to: /home//.local…
- v1.1d: HP growth bugfix + de version fixes - 3 November 2024
We Fixed a critical bug, that would lead to characters gaining more HP than usual on a level-up! If you are below level 10, you are unaffected by this change. If you are above level 10, some of you characters might have a bit lower HP now. If your HP was lowered, we put one Vigor Source item into your inventory as a small compensation. Why did you lower my HP? If left as is, this would have seriously impacted game balance. The game, especially later on, would then be no challenge at all.
