Hi Fox Riders,
After the success of Epistory's Fox, the plushies from Nanotale are finally available on Makeship for a limited time! Will you be team Blue Fox or team Green Jasper? Or you can even get the two of them with a discount!
It's a 21 days limited edition, so hug them before it's too late: https://shop.makeship.com/3Ym5HLa
Thank you for your love!
Cheers,

Hi Fox Rider,
When we did the Epistory plushie giveaway with Makeship, we promised you that we'll also do one on Steam too and here it is!
Hi , Once again we are working on a Japanese version of our coming title Outshine. Just like Epistory and Nanotale, Outshine will work with companion words which are romanized versions of the words you have to type in Japanese. Thanks to you we learned a bit more about Japanese localization while developing our typing game and now we understand that there are different ways to romanize it. There is the Hepburn romanization that generally follows English phonology with Romance vowels. But also the Nihon-shiki romanization originally invented for Japanese and his modified variant the Kunrei-shiki.
Hey Fox Riders, If you missed the news on Nanotale. Since the campaign for the Fox from Epistory on Makeship was a success, we'd like to run another campaign with characters from Nanotale. Therefore, we'd like to now if you'd prefer to have the Blue Fox (cute plushie version), the Green Jasper, or both. Please tell us in the comments or using this google form.
Hi Fox Riders,
Our Three Tailed Fox campaign is now fully funded (265%) and we wanted to thank you for that epiparty You are awesome!
The campaign finishes in 2 days so for those who didn't have the chance to get it yet, here's the link: https://shop.makeship.com/3ucFrod
Hi Fox Riders,
It's out! The Three Tailed Fox Plush from Epistory is now available on Makeship. We now have 21 days to reach the minimum funding goal of 200 pre-orders to launch the production. The Epistory plush is a limited edition so it won't be possible to find it after the campaign. Don't miss it out! Once the product is ready, we ship it directly to you.
BONUS: With every plush purchase you will receive a digital copy of Epistory!
Hi Fox Riders,
It's happening! On Friday 25th of March 2022, you'll be able to get your own Three Tailed Fox Plush on Makeship. You can already visit the campaign page and, if not done yet, enter your email so you don't miss out.
Hi Fox Riders, Yesterday, during our stream of Outshine, a Fox Rider asked us about the Fox Plush. It was the perfect timing because we did get some news. We validated the design and now we are waiting for the physical version to be shipped at the studio. Then, if it passes the hugging test we'll make the campaign on Makeship live and you'll be able to get your own limited version of our beloved Fox. As a bonus, with every purchase you will receive a digital version of Epistory to keep or to gift.
Hey Fox Riders,
Happy New Year!
Tadaaaaa! Here's the revised design of the plush following your feedback. We made the eyes cuter while conserving their geometrical aspect since we wanted to keep the essence of the origami fox.
What do you think?
The next step would be to have the first plush prototype. Then you'll be able to make it yours!
Thank you for the feedback!
-VirginRedemption
PS: little reminder about our third typing game Outshine. Don't hesitate to wishlist it if some of you are missing the arcade vibes from the iconic typing of the dead.
Hi Fox Riders,
We are currently working with MakeShip to create a plush of the Fox from Epistory. Here's the first design of the plush. Please give us your feedback!
Thank you for your help!
Happy Holiday!

Hi Fox Riders,
During the development of our last typing adventure, Nanotale, some players asked us for for a fast-paced typing mode. Of course, we released the arena mode to please the frenetic typists among you. But, we also had the idea of a new typing game, more arcade oriented where your only goal is to destroy your enemies in a fast-paced typing game.
So, here comes Outshine where each world has its own flow, enemies and bosses. Master your different special abilities and find the best tactic to defeat your enemies and escape. Beat the game then change the game modifiers to create a brand new custom experience. Ready to type your way up the leaderboard?
Outshine is still in development and is planned to be released around mid-2022. Meanwhile, it would mean a lot to us if you could wishlist it.

Thank you.

Hi Fox Riders, I am happy to see that our community is growing with more and more Fox Riders everyday. Thank you so much for joining us and for the good reviews left on Steam. Now that we entered the post-production of our current game in developing Nanotale, we decided to spend time on the few bugs remaining in Epistory.
Hi Fox Riders, We hope that you are doing well. Here, we entered a second lockdown which means that our team is working from home for 7 months now.
With Corona virus all around, we are all working from home. the studio is empty, and waiting for a coffee can seem really looooooong. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JmSmyOp15M&t=7s -VirginRedemption
Hi Fox Riders,
Today, we had the pleasure to read that Nanotale reached the first step of the Indie of the Year contest on IndieDB by being part of Top 100. We are now competing against 99 other fantastic indie games.

Hi Fox Riders,
I've been approached by some of you who were afraid to not see Rosalind riding a Fox in Nanotale. So, I thought that it was the right time to tell you a little bit more about the fox and its relation with Rosalind.
I will keep it short because, now, the fox is part of the story and I don't want to spoil you too much.
In Nanotale, you don't ride the fox constantly. By that, I mean that by default you walk fast with Rosalind but when you press SHIFT it summons the fox and you can ride it to sprint.
Hi Fox Riders,
Last week we started some modeling for our second biome epiparty And because it's called the Sunken Caves it will, of course, start with rocks!
There are multiple entrances to the Sunken Caves but the main one is located North of the Ancestral Forest, passed the meadow. We are currently working on its look.
And finally, we started to work on other things than rocks for the second biome in Nanotale. That little house is the first step to create a troglodyte village.

Hi Fox Riders,
I hope you are all doing great and did not miss us too much while we were at PAX East and EGX Rezzed.
The two conventions went great for Nanotale! When the first player sat on our booth at PAX East to try the game, we felt really stressed, not knowing if he would enjoy it. That stress was at its climax when we met a returning player from Epistory. The thing is that both new and returning players loved it very much. They were really happy with the new RPG direction of the game and so with the art style.
Here's the stream we did with Rockpaper Shotgun during EGX Rezzed. Hope you will like what you see.
https://youtu.be/W7GMFJmrAw0?t=15087
And here's what the press said about it so far:
[quote=Hardcore Gamer]Nanotale: Typing Chronicles is easily one of the years more intriguing concepts when it comes to the link between the player put before the screen and the action that unravels on it.[/quote] Read full article here.
[quote=Eurogamer]EGX Rezzed 2019: The best games from this year's show. Nanotale is perhaps best quickly described as Magicka meets Typing of the Dead. [/quote] Read full article here.
[quote=vg247]The developers have actually tackled this genre before in Epistory, but something about Nanotale: Typing Chronicles particularly grabbed me.[/quote] Read full article here.
While the four of us were at the convention, other people from the team stood at the studio and continued to work on the game. They also had the chance to experience the "Mini Fox Bug".
Hi Fox Riders, First of all, we'd like to thank you. Thanks to you, Epistory is rated overwhelmingly positive on Steam for three years. And that's something! epilove To celebrate, the game will be 75% off during the whole week, so don't hesitate to spread the word. epiparty
Hi Fox riders, Today, we are happy to finally share with you the first gameplay teaser of Nanotale. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbwOBR_c79w If the game is not on your wishlist yet, we hope that our video will convince to do it! https://store.steampowered.com/app/944920/Nanotale__Typing_Chronicles/ We'll be happy to have your thoughts about the game so far.

Hey Fox Riders,
We updated Nanotale's Steam page with new screenshots from the game. There is still a lot of work to do, but we are now satisfied of the overall art style and decided to publish it.
If not done yet, don't hesitate to add Nanotale to your Wishlist. It would really help us to have more visibility on Steam, which is hard nowadays for a small studio like Fishing Cactus.
Thank you and Happy New Year to our players from China.

Hi Fox Riders, Last week, we worked on the Static Enemy with the goal to have at least 3 enemies in the DEMO we'll showcase at PAX East (Boston) and EGX Rezzed (London).
Hi Fox Riders,
Following your feedback, we modified a little bit the shape of Rosalind. The new shape will also facilitate the creation of a low poly 3D version.
Here's a work in progress sculpt of Rosalind based on the new shape.
Hi Fox Riders, Happy new year! We posted another weekly update on Nanotale's steam page showing you a recap of what have been revealed so far, such as the NPCs from the Ancestral Forest and the shape of the new fox.

Hi Fox Riders,
We are glad to announce that Epistory is available in Chinese and now officially supports 10 languages! A total of 14 with the translations made by the community on Steam Workshop.
We were supposed to publish the update for the 1st Anniversary of the game, but due to a slight hitch, it has been delayed until today.
This will probably be the last major update for Epistory - Typing Chronicles to give us more time to focus on our other games in production. Don't worry; it's not a goodbye at all. We'll always be on the Steam forum and Discuss to help you and answer your questions. Speaking of feedback, we are thinking of a DLC and would like to know what you think of the idea.
Thank you very much for these nearly two years of support.
Hello Fox Riders,
One year ago, with our hearts beating fast, we held our breath and released Epistory - Typing Chronicles on Steam. And, as promised, we’ve planned some surprises to thank you for all the love and support during the development and even now that the game is fully released ːepiloveː ːepipartyː. It’s always a pleasure to read your comments on the forums and answer them. Keep going guys!
Let’s kickoff the celebration with a 50% discount. Moreover we plan to run some giveaways on Twitter and Facebook during the whole week to make you win Steam keys and the fantastic anniversary t-shirt that the development team wears on the picture below.
But wait! There’s more! Join us for a live stream with the team on the 30th of March 9:30 am PDT ( 5:30 pm GMT+1) on Twitch. We’ll play Epistory and answer all your questions. Meanwhile, you can chat with us everyday on our recently created Discord Channel.
If you want even more insight, we published an article about the whole development of Epistory. You can even play the first prototype of the game!
One more gift, for those of you who’d enjoy reminiscing about the story of the game, we published its full script, written by our dear Joseph J Clark with the illustrations of Amandine Flahaut.
This year has been a great year. Thank you. Now it’s time to move on something else. We’d like to announce that we started development on a new game called Shift Quantum.
Thank you! ːepiloveː
Hi Reindeer Riders,
We wanted to give you something special for Christmas. Of course, for those of you who doesn’t own the game yet, the best present will be the discount during the Winter Sales. But for the others, we chose something that sounds less like buying and more like sharing.
You’ve probably noticed that our main menu has a kind of Christmas feeling, so has one of our Arenas. But the major update for this holiday season is the Japanese language fully implemented in the game. As usual, don’t hesitate to tell us if you find typos or weird translations.
Also, IndieDB will announce the Indie of the Year in 5 days. Epistory has the chance to be part of top 100. Don’t hesitate to vote for us if you feel like the game should win. We’ll add that there’s no need to be logged to vote.
[url=http://www.indiedb.com/games/epistory]
To finish, every year for Christmas, we run a 48h internal Game Jam and this year we wanted to share the crazy and unfinished projects from previous years with our community. You can find and download the games here.
Have a wonderful Holiday Season!
Hello Fox Riders,
We are so excited to announce that Epistory is finalist for the Unity Awards 2016 in BEST 3D VISUALS ːepipartyː ːepiloveː. It's gonna be a very tough fight since we are in competition with wonderful games such as Armello, Firewatch, ReCore, Inside and The Room.
No need to tell you that any kind of help is welcome, from the vote to the share.

Today marks the 1 year anniversary of the Epistory Early Access release. ːepipartyː We’ll keep it simple this time. With a bigger event coming for the “real” release anniversary in 2017. Development has obviously slowed down in favor of other projects but we still reserve some time each week to provide new features and browse the forums. ːepiwinkː
In recent news, you may have seen/tested the upcoming Japanese version (available in beta here). That means there will be at least one more big update in the future, with an array of minor bugfixes. ːepihappyː
To celebrate, if you post a comment on this news you'll enter a raffle to win an Epistory t-shirt. 5 winners picked randomly. You have 1 week to enter.
Super bonus: We asked the whole studio to wear it! Have an awesome week end! ːepicoolː ːepiloveː
Good news everyone!
On the occasion of the TGS, we took some time add the Japanese language to the game.
Well, it's ready-ish. It's still a bit rough around the edges (one rarely-used font missing, a few minor bugs) so it is only available in a separate branch for now.
More importantly, since we only have a basic understanding of how the language works (thanks Wikipedia), we'll need your help to ensure it's readable and enjoyable.
The biggest change required was the dictionary system. Don't panic, the few mods already existing won't require any changes but since we had to support "dual words" for Japanese, we could also support the same kind of dual display for other languages. Let us know if we should spend the time to make it possible for someone to create his/her dictionary of "english & french displayed side by side"
If you want to try it here's a small guide to branch switching:
- In your steam library, right click on Epistory and then click on Properties.
- Go to the tab called "betas"
- Change the drop down to "japanese-beta".
Known bugs:
- One font missing (you'll see red XXXXX instead of words)
- "Companion word" (the one showing the translation) displayed for too long on some items.
- "Companion word" displayed for no good reason (e.g. on number chests)
- Gameplay language in the options not translated when set to "Japanese"
Thanks for playing!
Hi Fox Riders,
Seems like Summer forgot to come by Belgium! Thx God the Steam Sales will warm our hearts! Hope the weather is better in your countries. Please let us know, we are curious :p
So, we just wanted to remind you that Epistory is 34% off during the Summer Sales. The offer ends the 4th of July.
We just pushed the new version of the game. No new features, just a bunch of fixes for the most recent bugs. Fixed: - "Blue void" save error. Most, if not all, of you who were affected had slightly different symptoms but we believe the root cause was the same for everyone. It is now fixed but unfortunately the saves are not always compatible/retrievable. If you still have problems starting the game, either reset the saves or send us the corrupted save files and we will try our best to fix them. - Crash at launch on Linux. - (Silent) Errors when deleting the last profile - Various small details That's all for today.
After weeks of hard work, we present to you the new and shinier version of Epistory. You spoke and we listened. We understand it would have been better for most of you to receive the update in chunks over the weeks but given the amount of changes it was a lot easier for us to handle one big transition to the new version instead of several small incremental versions. We even had to stop planning for a workshop beta. Without further ado, here’s the changelist: Added/Improved
Hi Fox Riders! Last week, our website has been updated to a wonderful e-shop ːepipartyː where you can buy t-shirts, papermasks and more of Epistory.
Let people know how crazy you are about Typing-RPG-Adventure games and specially Epistory ːepihappyː

Hi Fox Riders! We are working on the implementation of the Steam Workshop ːepipartyː and we'll need volunteers to be part of the BETA. Please, let us know in comments if you are interested. First come, first served. Depending on the response, we'll take 10 to 20 people. This very first workshop will be about making your very own game experience with words of your choice. You can also translate the game in your own language and add support for new and/or crazy keyboard layouts. Who's in? ːepifoxː Note: To be elligible for the workshop, you have to own a copy of the game and have some knowledges in mods.
Hi Fox Riders! We are happy to announce you that the OST of Epistory is now available. A 45 minutes-long adventure that will take you back upon your favorite fox. Please check out the DLC here: http://store.steampowered.com//app/458530
Update: The bugs and features removed with the Patch has been fixed and added again. Everything is fine! ːepipartyː Hi Fox Riders, Many of you are blocked in the first ice dungeon after getting the new magic. This bug came up with the last patch ːepifearː. Unfortunately it's not a bug that we can fix for the moment but we are working hard on it. So, we came up with a temporary solution which is to remove the patch and go back to the previous version. Which also means that the bugs fixed and features added with this patch won't be anymore. We'll keep you in touch. ːepifoxː
Hello everyone, We fixed another slew of bugs: Fixes:
Good news everyone, We have pushed a new update which fixes several issues with the game and adds some requested improvements. Since we did some changes in the way we calculate the scores of the arena, we had to reset the leaderboards. Here's the list.
Hi Fox Riders! Today is the day :) Epistory is finally fully released. Can't wait for you to discover the end of the game. Good luck with hours of game waiting for you. Also, we'd like to thank all of you for the support and love during the early access. Don't hesitate to share our new trailer around you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O1qg_8JKojE In the coming weeks, we plan to fix the very few remaining bugs you could find in this version. We are even thinking of adding more languages. But today let's party!
Hi Fox Riders! The moment has come to announce that Epistory - Typing Chronicles will leave early access and be released on Steam on the 30th of March 2016. We are so enthousiastic and we can't wait to read your feedback about the last chapters of the game. So, if the game isn't yet in your Steam library, it's you last chance to get it at the Early Access price! As a bonus, find below some screenshots of the upcoming chapters and a short teaser video made with love. See you on the community hub!

Good news everyone! We put together an update which should fix several bugs (most importantly the interface bug on Linux). We didn't plan this so I don't have a complete patch note but here's some of the improvements you will see in game: - Some redesign of the dungeon and their stories - Complete overhaul of the skills - New destructible elements - The voice over for most of the texts in the first two chapters Plus a ton of super cool awesome stuff within the third and fourth chapters which are still locked away (more information soon). As usual we welcome your feedback and bug reports. Have a great end of week.
Hi Folks, Finally the list of finalists for each category of the 2016 Independent Games Festival has been released. Although Epistory is not on that list, it has been put in the "Honorable Mentions" of Visual Art which is pretty good for a game in Early Access. Let's get that award next year!

Good luck!
We’ve sent a small update with various bug fixes on Steam. But that’s not all we want to talk about.
We have a few teasers for you. The biggest change recently has been the recording of the voice over. We prepared a short video to give you a taste of what it sounds like. It still need work to be fully integrated but we are quite happy with the results so far.

We also are roughly half done with the third chapter. We can start showing some part of it, and let you guess what kind of magic you’ll discover. Here are two of the new items you’ll encounter.
Another planned feature is to rework the skill progression which is currently lackluster. More skills, which will be more useful will make their debut next year.
As a final word, we would like to thank everyone for their vote during the first phase of the Indie Of The Year. We reached the top 100 and we cannot wait to see how far we will go!
Happy Holidays!
The Epistory Team

Hello everyone, We hope you are enjoying the new chapter of the game. Since the update, we were busy fixing bugs and continuing work on the next chapter. Thanks to everyone pitching in to help us spot some of these. Here's a (partial) list of what's changed: Changed: Quit button in pause menu returns to main menu. Fixed: Sound was played on the wrong device, even when said device was deactivated. Also known as "There's no sound". Fixed: The ice door leading to the 4th dungeon was allowing access before the end of the animation. Fixed: inspiration numbers were not always rounded. Fixed: console (F1 for the curious among you) was spamming error when starting the arena after a normal game. Fixed: The texts displayed during a combat were not hidden when you lose the battle. Other: Small performance improvement. We also have a list of known bugs that didn't make it into this update: - Mac version not always having a successful install. - If a crash/power loss occurs during loading time the save will be corrupted. The rest of it concerns the next chapter so hush... spoilers... Have a nice day/week end/steam sales and a happy Thanksgiving!
After fighting an insectile corruption and embracing the power of fire, we left our heroine and her companion at the edge of the Forgotten Forest. Along the treacherous, twisting paths of her adventure, she began to uncover the secret pieces of her story. Now she must fight not to drown under the crushing weight of uncertainty and fight with dignity to restore her inner peace.
Discover new enemies, learn new magic and explore two brand new dungeons full of mystery. Be brave; for there is no turning back on the way to the truth.
After a bug in our save system was found, we cannot guarantee compatibility between the update and the current (Halloween) version. Depending on where you last left the game it will work, or not. Regardless of the state of the save, we recommend a new game because of the work that has been done in the first two dungeons.

Please be aware that this update marks the end of our early bird pricing. Epistory now be fixed at $12.99 due to the major updates that have been done since launching on Early Access.
Thank you to everyone who has supported us on this adventure so far. We hope you will enjoy this new chapter and we can’t wait to hear your feedback!

The challengers amongst you will be pleased to find the new “Arena” mode in the main menu. It’s a special place where the world will finally recognize the value of your typing skills. We’re still working on the leaderboard that should come soon. It’s also a bit rough around the edges. Note that Spanish language has been added to the game. More languages to come during the Early Access. [img=http://blog.fishingcactus.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/10/screenshot_halloween_mac_linux3.jpg] Here's the patch note for the new version: New Features Added: Infinite Battle “Arena” mode, where you’ll soon be able to challenge yourself and get your name at the top of the leaderboard.
