Hello everyone, we hope youre having a wonderful time. We have recently updated Chronotopia: Second Skin with a new build (1.08) that fixes more typos, as well as lower the requirements to trigger the Fleurs Goodwill achievement by another point.
If you couldnt buy Chronotopia on launch, heres your chance: its currently 10% off as part of the Winter Sale! Consider it a Christmas gift from us~
Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year!
Hello everyone, we hope youve been enjoying Chronotopias story so far! Ever since release, weve been gradually fixing issues. Heres a summary:
- One reviewer noted a lack of content warnings despite the games heavy subject matters. Since this is an oversight on our part, we added a warning with this update. Upon launching the game for the first time, the warning will stay on-screen until the player takes action to ensure it will be less likely to be accidentally skipped. A detailed list is also available on this page (be aware that it contains spoilers for the full game).
- One player reported to us that the Archivist achievement would not trigger, preventing 100% completion. We applied a solution that had an unexpected side effect. Some players would randomly unlock the achievement without even completing the Archives or opening said menu. So we hurried to find another solution. The issue should be solved now.
- After a player pointed out to us that there was no room for mistake to trigger the Fleurs Goodwill achievement, weve decided to lower the requirements by one point.
- We fixed some typos that have been reported to us or that we noticed during Youtube/Twitch playthroughs.
- We changed the names of several backers in the credits, as per their request.
We also fixed a couple of minor bugs:
- The farm minigame would sometimes not be skipped on a second playthrough (exposing why it was restricted in the first place).
- If the player skipped dialogues fast enough, unnamed music tracks would appear in the "Currently Playing" pop-up, crashing the game.
- In one scene of the demo, Kionnas sprite would appear on top of Nahimas instead of the wanted position.
- In some cases, only one variation of the Dead End would trigger (the one appearing in the [spoiler]Buried Alive[/spoiler] scene), creating confusion as to Nahimas fate.
Thats it. After so many years, so much waiting, Chronotopia: Second Skin is now officially released on Steam! It feels so surreal, its hasnt it me yet.
I want to take some time to thank everyone whos been with me on this journey, everyone who helped me and cheered for me despite the hardships. And I want to thank everyone who supported the Kickstarter and everyone who showed interested for the game, it truly means the world to me. [previewyoutube=iuFzpqb2Dt4;full][/previewyoutube] I really hope you will enjoy Chronotopias story. If so, be sure to leave a review or a comment to share your thoughts about the game. It will help us a lot as were a small team and visibility is everything these days.
In anticipation for the upcoming release, the demo of Chronotopia: Second Skin is now available!
It includes the entire beginning of the game, save for the tutorial, up to the first big turning point (leaving you on a cliffhanger). This roughly represents 10% of the entire content but you still get to meet some of the most important characters, unlock several archives and illustrations, and explore the castle with a few gameplay segments. You can also find your first memory fragment if youre perceptive enough~
If youre on the fence about buying Chronotopia, come check out the demo!
After many years of troubled development, health issues and general bad luck, we are happy to announce that Chronotopia: Second Skin will be released on October 13th. Friday the 13th. Isnt it fitting for a cursed game to be released on an unlucky day? We thought it would be a good way to close this chapter of our misfortunes. An updated demo will also be made available a few days prior so you can refresh your memory! Chronotopia: Second Skin is a unique rewriting of the Donkeyskin fairytale, a darker variation of Cinderella. Follow Kionna into a painful but ultimately rewarding search for her true self.

~~~~~~~~ Fairytale princess dies; she gets better. Love in the bargain. ~~~~~~~~
The plan was supposed to be simple, almost ridiculously so.
When her father, driven mad by years of grief, suddenly decided to force her into marrying him, Princess Kionna enlisted the help of her childhood friend. Together, they managed to contact her long-lost fairy godmother. Surely, her powers would save her from this hellish fate. Kionna would be able to escape the castle, a prince charming would find her, and they would live happily ever after.
Alas, magic can only do so much. Things keep spinning out of control. Trapped in an endless nightmare, the princess ceaselessly rewinds time in a race with death itself. Is a happy ending truly waiting for her at the end of the tunnel?
Kionna perfectly encapsulates what you would expect from a fairytale princess. Naive and sheltered, she means to do good but comes across as haughty due to her upbringing.
Unfortunately for Kionna, she cannot rely on others forever. To escape her fate, she will have to learn to fight for herself…
Nahima’s whole world revolves around Kionna. She has been her confidant for as long as she can remember and she is dead set on staying this way.
Deep down, she knows this is impossible but she is not ready to let go. After all, if Kionna truly leaves, she wouldn’t have use for her anymore, would she?
Médeia is not quite the traditional fairy godmother. She makes it abundantly clear she is not interested in becoming Kionna’s magical sidekick. The sooner she helps her, the sooner she can return to the magical realm. And that is all that matters as far as she is concerned.
Or is it? For someone who always appears so unfazed, she seems to care an awful lot...
While life is not as convenient as Kionna had hoped, her dream might not be completely out of her reach. Indeed, there are numerous handsome lords in her vicinity who would make perfectly fine suitors. Could one of them be her Prince Charming?

- Beautiful artwork, with animated backgrounds and special stained-glass illustrations
