New:- The “Madness” difficulty level has been added. There are no achievements associated with this difficulty level. It is entirely optional. Players do not need to complete it to make any progress.

- Fixed an incorrect light effect near the exit door on certain difficulty levels.- The pistol now correctly disappears along with the character’s hands when moving to the first trial during the ritual.- The pistol is now automatically removed from the character’s hands when the player picks up the flashlight for the pistol, so the player doesn’t have to do this manually to turn on the flashlight.- Another attempt to fix Miyuki getting stuck near the ritual door.

- I've fixed the code that should force Miyuki to leave her position near the ritual room, in order to prevent a bug where she gets stuck near the door for a long time.

- Shards Of Solitude is now available! - 14 April 2026
“Shards of Solitude” is a short game where you must find a way out or banish the ghost of a girl who will try to stop you. The game features seven endings and three difficulty levels. On each difficulty level, Miyuki’s behavior will change, and escaping will become more difficult. To reach a specific ending, you must either escape or banish Miyuki; the ending will be influenced by various choices and non-obvious decisions.There is a tutorial section in the menu; check it out if you encounter any difficulties during the game. On "Normal" and "Hard" difficulty, the endings differ by default. On "Hell" difficulty, the endings are the same as on "Hard" difficulty, so you don’t need to play through it if you plan to unlock all endings. This difficulty is designed only for those who want to experience true nightmare.
