    Detailed Notes: We appreciate your continued support and feedback! Here's a breakdown of the bug fixes included in this update: 1. UI Resolution Handling Error Fixed: - We've corrected a persistent issue where the judgment window failed to adapt properly to various UI resolutions. Previously, players might have experienced display inconsistencies. With this fix, the judgment window will now display correctly and consistently, regardless of your screen resolution settings.

  • Development progress and upcoming graphics upgrades! - 7 November 2023

    Hello, I apologize for the long absence. We've had some injury issues and teammate rescues that have taken some time, but we've gotten most of the scenarios done. I have two announcements to make today. The first is that we've found a graphic designer, so there will be a graphics update in the near future. It may take a while, but the graphics will be replaced as soon as the work is completed. Below is an example of their work. Stay tuned! Secondly, I think we'll be done with development to the point where we can release it publicly within a month at least. At the moment, the remaining tasks are. >Addition of enemy objects and their graphical resources. >Adding the ending part. >Adding performance illustrations. >Miscellaneous bug fixes and balancing. Most of the scenario content for days 1-4 has already been developed, but we decided that it would be better to upload it all at once ins…

  • Status UI / Shop / Battle system introduced - 31 July 2023

    Battle system, Shop and status UI updates! 1. combat system. TRPG's combat system allows you to enjoy a combat experience. It can be broken down into two main parts. Battles can happen if you stay up late into the evening! 1) Your Action Turn During your action turn, you choose what actions you want to take. In the current version, fleeing is not updated, but eventually there will be 3 options: attack / reload / flee. If you choose Attack, you will specify who you want to attack and start making judgments. Shooting and Dexterity judgments are one-sided as before, while Martial Arts and Swordsmanship are compared against each other and the result of the action is chosen based on the results. 2) Enemy's Action Turn There are two options for the enemy's action turn. "Dodge" and "Counterattack". Dodging has the advantage if they are both successful, i.e. the same number of judgment points.…

  • Publish A Shadow Cast on Water Roadmap - 24 June 2023

    Hi, I wanted to share a detailed development schedule and roadmap. Please note that this schedule is an optimistic target and may actually take a bit longer. However, we'll try to stick to the schedule as much as possible, and even if we run into problems, we'll still be working hard to complete development within 2023. The detailed schedule is as follows ----- ( 1. Detective Notebook ) This system will be used to make it easier to manage the keywords you have already acquired. You can record the information at the time of acquisition and check it again, and you can easily select keywords to use using the UI. ( 2. User Status & Inventory UI ) A UI is added to check the stats and current status of the character created by the user. In addition, an inventory will be added where you can check and use your acquired items. ( 3. Turn-based combat system ) The game will be based on the turn-ba…

  • Announcing the start of sales and upcoming events. - 20 June 2023

    Thanks to more interest than we could have ever imagined, we're finally able to release the game. From now on, we will continue to work on the game until it's ready with regular updates. Currently, we are developing a "detective notebook" where users can check the information of the keywords they have obtained, as shown below. In addition to simply viewing the information, the keyword selection part, which was previously cumbersome, can be specified more easily through the detective notebook will be made easier. We'll be releasing a full development roadmap and regular announcement schedule by the end of this week. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $3.99
  • Highest observed: $3.99

A Shadow Cast on Water's USD price history spans from Sep 23, 2026 to Sep 23, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $3.99, the highest is $3.99, and the first visible tracked price is $3.99. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

A Shadow Cast on Water's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $3.99, from Sep 23, 2026 through Sep 23, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $3.99. The latest run records $3.99 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $3.99
  • Current list price: $3.99
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records A Shadow Cast on Water at $3.99 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
