- I'm still working on things ^^" - 3 May 2026
Hi guys I have improved the Patch 2.20 notes slightly. I was a bit lazy with these patch notes, but I decided to add more detail to them. You can see what changed at the top description: https://tristanthewolf.itch.io/white-pearlrpg/devlog/1493334/patch-220-notesYou can see what I'm going to add and what my ambitions are.I want this to be my last news post here. From now on, you can keep up with me on the game's Steam community forums. https://steamcommunity.com/app/761280/discussions/ I may also post a small amount of updates on Twitter, but its likely I'll stick to Steam and Itch.io If my plans for future content of the game do actually happen, you'll know by checking the community forums. Thank you everyone, this should be everything now! Tristan.
- Development support will continue - 30 April 2026
Hello folks I have received some new bug reports, this time from friends so I think I have a duty to fix them hahaI'm going to use this chance to fix any issues anybody reported the past couple of years, but I would like to keep working on the game and have fun as well.If you have issues please report them in the bug megathread.I won't update the game immediately upon fixing bugs anymore. I'll have to let you know the date.Also I want to take the opportunity to say that I've been working on fanfiction for the game.I commissioned a lot of art and just want to have fun with it.https://steamcommunity.com/app/761280/discussions/2/1620599015887332935/?ctp=10I'll let you guys know what happens, but I don't think many people will be interested in reading fanfiction. It's likely I'll keep it private.
- White Pearl - Patch 2.20 is released :) - 27 April 2026
Hello folks Hope you are ok. White Pearl Patch 2.20 is now available. You can view the patch notes here: https://tristanthewolf.itch.io/white-pearlrpg/devlog/1493334/patch-220-notesThere is also official artwork being made for the game. * The Chronicle Edition DLC has been temporarily disabled because the guide has to be updated with all these changes.*There is a new full screen mode that was added. The game will hopefully look better with new machines now should you use this mode.Press F5 to toggle the new fullscreen mode and keep pressing F5 to change aspect ratios of the mode.Technically the game is still registered as windowed in this mode, so movies will appear at the original resolution (quite small).If you guys have any major issues, please contact me on [email protected] or https://x.com/tristanthewolf5Enjoy playing and thank you.
- Hi folks! Patch 2.20 will release this year - 7 April 2026
Hi folks Thanks a lot for your kind comments. I am returning to the game to add patch 2.20 at some point this year.This past decade has been weird since I got a full time job and all that, but somehow, I made my way over to this game again. Sorry I won't be able to fix or support nearly as much as I used to. Right now, I plan to just update the game one more time and leave it going. Patch 2.20 is just some personal adjustments to the game I made after playing it for the first time in 5 years or so. I added some new content, but nothing groundbreaking. I also fixed a few bugs, but don't expect miracles lol Thanks all. Tristan
- White Pearl: Chronicle Edition Launched! - 9 April 2018
The main DLC for White Pearl is now available! Store page: http://store.steampowered.com/app/838680/White_Pearl__Chronicle_Edition/
- Installation Issues Fixed + New Fullscreen Features - 8 April 2018
This was something I didn't expect, because the contents of the DLC has been hidden to users (and it still is) - but it's been affecting everybody's main game files - with the exception of saved games (since those are saved to the Steam Cloud now). I was assigning the DLC package to the main game - but because the DLC hasn't been released yet, the contents of that remain hidden to users (so in other words, 0MB). I had set the actual package of the DLC in a hidden branch, but I also linked to the main depot of the game (that was already released) - so had that effect. Nothing in the game's files! It only affected the main game files because it was a child of the main game. (In terms of what gets installed, the DLC package is bundled with the main game). I've removed that for now until release of the DLC. I really started to panic, but I'm glad I fixed it. More importantly, I'm glad peopl…
- Annoucing White Pearl: Chronicle Edition! - 1 April 2018
The first DLC for White Pearl, coming to Steam early April! Contains new additions outside of the game. Additions include: - NEW Asset Package - contains unused and cut content from the game, as well as some raw assets from the game which players may use/view. Development footage and screenshots are also included. - UPDATED Official Guide - now containing Story & Optional Content walkthrough! - and more surprises! More info will be on the DLC's store page, so I'll update this with the link when it's up! Please note: the DLC is 3GB in size. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F31354862%2Fc4a8c17495c979412efc4dabad67a96fde728672.png
- DLC Upcoming! - 30 March 2018
It will be nothing you will have to pay for. The reason I'm doing this is because free games do not remain in the library if they're uninstalled, however - if they have DLC attached - it will remain. By releasing a DLC package, I can remedy this issue. Please continue to enjoy your time with the game.
- Decide what I'll do Next! - 25 March 2018
At the moment, I have no plans to soley develop another title again myself. However, if I was to start a new project, what would you want it to be about? Answer in the poll below: - https://www.strawpoll.me/15362121 Thank you!
- Steam Cloud has been Intergrated! - 17 March 2018
I'm sorry for the delay on this one, as I know it's been a requested feautre. Steam will be able sync all 16 available files (that's the max save slots of the game), and can save up to 8 MB. It seems like a small amount, but I've tested how much the combined size is for all 16 saved slots - and it came up to 1.05MB. Because the save slot size will vary depending on where you choose to save, this total value can vary - so I have made sure to give a generous amount of space. You may notice that the game will take longer to launch. This is because Steam will need to ping the connection first, and the speed may vary depending on your connection. That's all!

- Official Guide and Last Content Addition Released! - 11 March 2018
The complete official guide for White Pearl has been released: Download: https://elyswer.itch.io/white-pearlrpg There's also another guide, written by a member of the community. That guide focuses on story and sidequest walkthrough. It will be very useful for new players, so please check it out! Two new locations have been added to the region of Kolan: - Kolan Reaches - Breka Town These locations are accessible after Chapter 6. It is the last content addition for White Pearl. I will still be bug fixing and making changes here and there. The splash screen has been updated with the latest news and version of the game. In addition, certain tooltips and victory quotes have been corrected. Most importantly, I hope you enjoy the guide and it is of use to you. Thank you for supporting White Pearl!
- An Official Guide is Now in Production! - 25 February 2018
Starting today, I have already begun production on a guide to White Pearl. For the guide, I am aiming to include: - A full inventory breakdown, listing where and how to get all the items in the game. - A sidequest walkthrough - A story walkthrough (if applicable) Due to the amount of content in the game, I am sure I might miss or pass over some details, but I hope for it to be as complete as it can be. You can see what I've made so far: https://twitter.com/HarryBupBup/status/967767549428600833 I hope to have most of the guide complete by the end of March 2018, where I will either disclose further information, or release the guide if it's already finished. UPDATE: I'm not going to do a story walkthrough because I think it's pointless and creates too much work for me to go through. Instead, I will do a boss walkthrough which I believe will be far more helpful. As for the guide, it's neari…
- The Full 1.0.7 Patch and Alternate Ending has been released! - 5 February 2018
You can view what's changed with this huge 35MB update here, in the 1.0.7 patch notes: https://elyswer.itch.io/white-pearlrpg/devlog/22986/patch-107-notes An alternate ending has been added! The alternate ending can only be accessed during Chapter 13, in the new dungeon, Tower of Souls - accessed at the island near Jelesta. Accessing the alternate ending: When Pearlto's speech becomes available, the Tower of Souls can be found near Jelesta. Please enjoy the new ending, the surprises to go with it, as well as the changes that came with this patch! Thank you so much for the support! :) Another content update @ 19/02/18: The main final boss battle has been extended with additional sequences and dialogue.
- Updates to White Pearl (what I can and can't do) - 3 January 2018
Even though I went through several major updates to WP (on other pages) before the release of the game on Steam, there's still bugs left - I've managed to squash major ones, such as crashing, by the end of December. I am depending on players to report bugs in the "Bugs" subforums of the game, so I can keep patching fixes in. This year, I'm not sure how big the game will grow, but I will still be releasing content updates if needed. However, there are a few things that I can't implement: - Quest Log (too late on, because every player would be at different stages of the game right now). - Resolution upgrade (I cannot extend the resolution to more than 640x480, as that is a violation of the software's agreement). Regardless, I am still very happy with how well the game has done - and it's gone pretty much as I expected it to.
- Previous Patches to White Pearl - 3 December 2017
With each patch of the game, I will be releasing patch notes here on Steam and itch.io which detail what exactly has changed in the game and why. In the past, I released patches when they were ready but I'm thinking of releasing the patches in a more organised way, such as the 10th of every month. If no changes are suggested or bugs found, then I won't be updating White Pearl. I used to release patches based on what I found, but I will be doing it now based entirely on player experience and feedback. White Pearl will be releasing on Steam on as V1.0.6 and the 1.0.6 patch will be released to itch in Jan 2018. For those who are curious to see the changes White Pearl has undergone, you can view the changes in the section below: --PATCH NOTES-- For the patch notes 1.0.0-1.0.3, see the GameJolt download page: https://gamejolt.com/games/whitepearlrpg/291556/devlog For the patch notes 1.0.3-1.…

- Announcing White Pearl on Steam - 2 December 2017
Hello! Many of you will have never heard of this game before, and be new here - so I'll get some release information out of the way first! White Pearl initally released on GameJolt at 21st October 2017 (I have now discontinued that page). I then released the game on itch.io on the 9th November 2017 - which, as of last week, has reached 100 downloads and beyond! The response has been positive, and I'm constantly improving the game with patches. Hopefully the game won't just look like just another RPGMaker game to you - and I am quite anxious to see the response here on Steam, but I have hope! If you have any questions or concerns, then there's a thread for that in the discussions page! Until then, have a Merry Christmas!
