Achievements Fixed, Polish Translation Coming Soon!

Steam achievements for Red Embrace are now fixed!


As per the title, they all should be working again! Many apologies for the long wait on this. As it turned out, due to a version incompatibility with our engine (Ren'Py), we essentially had to work through the entire script and reprogram all of the side portrait character expressions. The newer version of Ren'Py is the only one that works for our achievements, but it also really hated our previous side portrait code, so...it took us some time to fix everything. :( However, everything should be up to date now! If your achievements don't activate, try uninstalling and reinstalling the game. Otherwise, please email us at contact@argentgames.co and let us know what the issue is.

Polish Translation Coming Soon!


We've also been working on a Polish translation! It's mostly done but needs to be proofread a bit more. Polish fans, keep an eye out! Thanks so much for all your support! <3
