Holy sweet Jesus... I absolutely had a great time playing this masterpiece. I enjoyed it pretty much every second I played it and didn't skip anything at all which for me that's really rare.
Can't say this enough but all the characters are just the most lovable things in the world and I can't get enough of any of them, I NEED MOAR!!!!!
You are making history my guy, this is really good, I didn't expect myself to be this immersed, but here I am, literally worshiping a dev after finishing the patch just seconds ago, took me by surprise, not gonna lie.
Thank you for making me feel such happiness while playing this gem, godspeed to you sir, and thank you for such an amazing game.
Wow, uh.. thank you! That's quite the comment you left me here. I greatly appreciate your kind words. Comments like yours do so much for my motivation and keep me going! It's awesome that you enjoyed CH so much! Honestly, thank you!
Feel free to join the game's Discord, too, if you want to hang out!

¡Gracias! No, el juego no está en español. Cualquier versión en español está hecha por un fan, ya que yo no hablo español. Esta respuesta está traducida automáticamente también.
No obstante, ¡gracias por tus amables palabras!
En cuanto a tu otra pregunta: Tendrás que empezar una nueva partida cuando pases del ordenador al teléfono o viceversa.
gracias por responder y no tengo mucho problema en que no este en español ya que al pacarme al ordenador sera facil traducir y en cuanto a reiniciar partida tampoco hay problema ya que asi podria explorar las otras respuestas que podia dar sin mas creo es todo muchas gracias por el juego es muy bueno sigue asi :3
Am I tripping or the Miko dream scene was taken out? I played this game a long Time ago and I'm 100% sure there was a scene with her fucking in my dream but now even after 2 playthrough I can't get it.
No, of course you're not. The scene has been taken out for now and is no longer canon, but will come back at some point as an unlockable scene for the gallery. As to how and when that'll happen..
*shrug*
We'll find out together. :P
Just kidding. I already know, but it's going to be an Easter egg of sorts. :)
So good stuff except for part pick on vertain group of people only that uppesttingy bit on a diff note tho I really want to Reina story Abt her sister and what happened
Hmm, what kind of group? Any picking on groups in CH is in good fun and doesn't necessarily reflect my actual opinion on things. Ultimately I don't care about what people do in their bedrooms (or wherever) as long as there's consent and stuff.
Reina's story will take a bit longer before it really starts out but it will be a doozy!
It seems picking on one reglion hard while that okay to some extent that sence with Olivia or o I can't remember name extremely upsettomg and difficult to stomach once I okay some joke but it nice they spread another instrad one in particular
I'm so grumpy haha I downloaded this the day before it updated - finished it in about two days of playing. The cliffhanger had me so bad in v.16 that I had to come back and get v.17 which I already knew was out. I'm REALLY enjoying this so far, and with how often your updates are, I'm definitely hoping you don't run out of steam anytime soon! It's not every day you actually see a game posting monthly updates.
Haha, I'm glad to hear that you're enjoying CH. Sorry about the cliffhanger (not really, but y'know :P)!
Hopefully you didn't jinx it now! But no, I don't think I will run out of steam anytime soon. Got a lot of stuff planned and prepared already and I'm only getting more passionate about the game, the further it progresses.
Your new font isn't very good yet. It makes it hard for me to see and I can't use google translate to translate the text because the text is hard to see
Yeah, something is weird with Android updates lately. I'll make a dev log with instructions on working around that on here and on Patreon in a moment and then link those in my answer to you.
I'm loving this game so far. I don't know how far in I am, but I have about 2/5 of the secret hamsters. I recently restarted the game because I was worried one of the characters was evil and pursuing a relationship with her would hurt other characters. But I'm not sure if that's true or not.
Some VNs are very deterministic, with routes you can follow. Answering one thing early on may lock you into a route. For instance, flirting with Aki gives you more content with Aki (Not saying I think she's the evil one.)
But other VNs are more expressive, where your responses determine only what you see and don't stop you from seeing things down the line. The choices are there to help you get invested in the plot and avoid content you don't care about.
Mainly, I'm looking forward to shacking up in the woods with Kana especially (Kagome may come too) and I don't want to do anything that would be a deal breaker for her.
Which kind of VN is this? Can I pursue all content as I wish without replaying, or will I need to replay to actually see everything?
Hi there! Decisions in CH are generally not going to lock you out of full paths. You might miss a scene or two as an immediate consequence of a choice you made, but you'll have another chance to get back onto a girl's path later on, once it becomes relevant again, as long as it makes sense within the confines of the game.
There might be rare exceptions in the future, but so far I don't have any concrete plans for those kind of choices.
I'm also really glad to hear that you enjoy CH. :)
Thank you for your reply. Now I know that I don't always have to be a horndog, and sometimes I prefer being a bit more restrained.
I'm starting to think Suzu's planning to turn Jun into her service animal.Kana is going to have to share that cabin in the woods with Suzu and Jun. Kagome is still invited.
You're welcome! And yes, if you prefer to do so, it's generally fine to decide against being a horndog. Like I said, you might have immediate consequences, but nothing too lasting in general. :)
Kana, Suzu, and Jun, huh? That sounds like a fun combination. Putting Kagome into the mix with Suzu around, though.. :D
If Kagome gets over her dislike of Suzu, then the vibration caused by Kagome's eyebrows every time someone says 'big' near Suzu would probably cause structural damage to the cabin's roof.
Could you please include an option to add a black bar behind texts? Sometimes the texts are really hard to see on mobile, especially when the image below the text is white.
I simply love the game and have to say, the story and the conversations are nothing but fantastic! Sometimes my belly hurts from laughter, while being impatiant for the next update to come!
Nonetheless, I've got a question: what's your nationality? Due to my profession, I spent quite some time in the US, as well as in Japan and neither have I met an American with such a knowledge about Japan, nor an Japanese being able to "play" with the english language so well!?
Thank you so much, that's awesome to hear! I'm glad you're having fun with the game. :)
I'm German, actually. Never been to Japan or the US. :P I do, however, use English almost more than German at this point and I've always had a penchant for languages and word plays/puns, I guess. It's really nice to see that my weird kind of humor is appreciated. Thank you! :D
I'm enjoying the game and the plot. However, I just downloaded the latest release and when I attempt to start the game, I get the following error (this is the error.txt file contents the game created - playing this on a pc and downloaded the 16.1-pc file):

Any thoughts as to how I might be able to correct? Thank you and keep up the good work.
I assume you added the new files on top of the old version? Try making a clean install where you extract 0.16.1 to a completely new folder. That should fix it if I'm not mistaken.
Should that not work, let me know. Either on here or over on Discord. :)
Yes, I had copied the files over the previous version that I had and received that error. I have now tried starting it from it's own folder and the game has started without the error. Thank you for the reply.
Ngl, came for the girls, stayed for the plot on this one. You've got legit creative talent Vertigo, and that results in a game without cringey forced relationships, something this genre is kinda plagued by typically. Kudos, can't wait for the next update!
Your stock android file explorer can't find the save files, but there are plenty of explorers in the play store that can, even without rooting. I've had luck with one called X-plore. Start at Android, then data, find the game files, (in this case, it's Vertigo.crimson.high), copy the save folder somewhere temporarily. Then reinstall everything, and paste your save file back in the original location.
I have was able to find and save the .Save files, but it wont let me save it back in the original location. Even if I change the whole folder name, the app wont access it
You may have better luck saving the individual save files to the new install's save folder, rather than trying to move the whole save folder at once. If that doesn't work, you can come to the discord, and I'll help you troubleshoot more.
I jacked it into my PC and used the file explorer there to back up the saves. Deleted the app through android and then reinstalled. Then copied the saves into the new folder
That's sadly a thing that seems to be part of the latest RenPy update. I have yet to figure out a solution for it. Sorry for the inconvenience. I hope you enjoyed the update. :)
Well, I should say it's not much of a game and more of a visual story since there is little interaction but I love it! The story is really entertaining so far, I love the myriad of characters and how they're all different with all their ups and downs, ways to react and so on. You really made a good piece and deserve much respect! Keep up the good work!
Indeed, it's a visualnovel and not one of them sandbox games out there. :P I'm glad to hear that you love it, though! Thank you very much for your kind words!
Well, these days most of the time when people hear "visual novel" they expect a kind of game... but you're definitely right, nothing says it should be. They should coin a new term for when they expect that. Anyways, thanks, and you deserve it
Yeah, for some reason they do. I guess the definitions aren't as clear cut anyway. Not that it really matters too much. There will always be hybrids and stuff that will blur the lines. The important thing at the end of the day is that the player has a good time.
the visual novel with the best story that I have had the opportunity to play, every moment that ppasse It's a work of art, I can't wait for the next update to come out
I came(heh) for the naughty game, stayed for the story. This is one of the best VN's I have played yet. Especially on this site. The cast feels like actual people, and the story is top notch. Keep up the fantastic work!
PS. I have a love/hate relationship with the cliffhangers. I have said, out loud, TWICE, "Damn... You SoB." 10/10
I think Okami3 is the cheekiest of all of the hamsters so far lol. Only just found it after cheating a little to see who was in the image so I could pay more attention to scenes with them.
Also only just noticed Touka isn't in the profiles on MC's phone. Is she not actually a LI or is it just because we have mostly just interacted with her in passing? Though, I suppose it would make sense if she weren't though with the entire class being one.
Edit: Jokes on me commenting before reading the latest Patreon post, lmao
Hehe. Yeah, Okami's is indeed a bit on the harder side. Cheater. :P
Indeed. 0.16 will hopefully make those things a bit more clear. Touka is indeed not a main love interest. That does not mean that there won't be any content for her, though. Just.. less. :)
Jokes on you indeed, haha. But hey, there is no harm in asking anyway, lol.
I wasn't really expecting to like it since I am not particularly into anime but I loved it!
One thing that has sort of been bugging me is that the principal seems like the MC's best source of information on Myths right now and he doesn't seem to be taking advantage of that very well. I don't believe he has asked her about his abilities, although I would think she could have learned about it already through Reina. I also don't think he has asked her about his connection to Miko (he might have and I just forgot though) or Jun's connection to him either. He also didn't ask her about his telepathic connection to Kana at the end of the current content. Come on, MC! You're a detective! :)
He's also in a completely new world to him and being thrown around like a sack of potatoes on an Irish farm. :P I know some things are "obvious" to the player, but I also try to emulate the confusion he must feel in that situation. This might be a subjective thing, but I think that, if I were in his position, I'd quickly feel so overwhelmed by new impressions and things that my usual thought processes would be altered by it. Also - and that's not a small feat - shit's happening all around him, so his mind is often preoccupied with the latest development. Plus, some things you as the player know are not what the MC knows or sees. His abilities for example are something that you recognize as abilities because you are on our side of the 4th wall, whereas he may think of it as just something that happens to him. He doesn't expect to suddenly have abilities at all, since he's "no one special", so to him it may seem weird, but not necessarily like something that's worth asking about when there are so many more important and urgent things happening around him.
It's obviously just me trying to emulate what someone would maybe feel in a similar situation, but I think it adds to the story if the MC doesn't always act perfectly or completely logical. Makes him more authentic in my eyes. :P
That being said, I'm glad to hear that you loved CH! Thanks a lot for playing and enjoying the game! Means a ton! :)
i found this game around the time it first dropped and immediately fell in love i just love story driven VN type stuff however out of every vn ive played (18+ and non 18+) id have to say thus is in my top 10. it has a very unique idea that i dont see much of maybe i have not gone that far into these types yet but this and demons of hearth are the 2 best VN ive come across in alooooong time. please keep up the great work because iam now to invested in the story your creating. :D
And i will be reading your story every step of the way. i tend to see VN on itch tend to be way more thought out and much more different form the ones you buy and CH is not any different. when i came across this VN i thought of it like it was a point and click murder mystery type of VN but i am so glad that i was wrong because now everyday i check on here and your patreon for updates and i only do that for 2 other VN (TWISTED WORLDS by SNATS and Demons of the Hearth By Knovel) i am a sucker for a good story so keep up the great work i want to see this story through ill be here every step you take now waiting for the story to continue. :D
Haha, thank you, man! Next public update (0.15) will be on Monday. :)
You can also join the Discord and hang out with me and others there if you want. I regularly post progress reports on there, which would tell you more about when the next update is due. :P
I am joining the discord rn idk if ppl have the same name as me but i might be the first person in the server named bimbo lol
iam so hyped for the next update though like idk how i can put into words on how much i enjoy CH and its not me just saying it either i do genuinely love CH
Love the game, curious to see what's to come. Love the story, it isn't boring and also isn't just sex driven, it's a story (not just :"achoo"... Let's have sex). Sooo. The MC is the king of myths? Just curious 😉
They should transfer over to the new version on their own. On PC they do it for sure and on Android they do so as long as you leave the current version on your phone until the new one comes out. Then, when downloading and installing the new one, it should ask if you want to update the application. Just confirm and it should keep your save files.
If you want to make sure, you can copy the save files via file browser and put them back into the next version manually. :)
Really awesome story so far. Feels like it pulls influence from World of Darkness, but puts its own fun spin on it. Excited to slowly discover what makes MC "special", with some theories floating in my head. Also the cliffhanger is pretty brutal, subscribed on Patreon so I could get the next update a bit earlier!
Thank you so much! I actually have no idea what World of Darkness even is. If it's anything like CH I should maybe watch it, though. Or read it? Play it? Consume it! Eitherwho, feel free to drop your theories about MC into the Discord. And don't forget to link your Discord and Patreon for access to the patron-only channels. If you wish to do so, that is, of course.
Thanks a lot for your pledge! It's greatly appreciated! :) Next update shouldn't be too long!
World of Darkness is a tabletop RPG system/universe with a similar premise - basically hidden societies similar to the way they're done in Crimson High. Pretty famous video game made around it was Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines.
Given you didn't know about it, it's impressive some of the parallels that coincidentally can be found to it.
Oh! I do know of VTM, but I wasn't aware of it being related to World of Darkness. Haven't played VTM either, however, but I've heard good things about it. Maybe I should, if it's similar to CH.
vértigoAVN me podrías enviar una repuesta de si hay posibilidad de volver a jugar esta joya en español latino, descargue la última versión lanzada pero está en ingles y no soy muy bueno descifrando palabras, te lo agradecería mucho por favor.!
Lo siento, pero no hay una traducción oficial al español ya que yo mismo no hablo español. Sin embargo, he visto que existe una traducción no oficial al español. Puedes encontrarla usando Google. Siento no poder ayudarte más allá de esto.
La verdad no me esperaba jugar este juego aunque buscaba de este tipo, a poco raro de ver la historia, me sumergió en su trama, hasta me hizo pasármelo en una madrugada, quedé lastimosamente en la sita con Mijo, porfavor mantengan la continuidad, gracias por leer esto, se les quiere, al creador'es gracias no tengo más para decir es un buen juego.
I hate Itch man. 6 hours of content and bam. cliffhanger. Itch always recommends incomplete games, and it gets annoying. Really cool game though. Can't wait to continue on with the story. Kana is easily my favorite right now. She gets so mad, and it made me laugh more than 20 times lol
It's always a bummer when a game isn't finished yet, isn't it? New content is released regularly, though, so you won't have to wait for very long until you get more.
I'm glad to hear that Kana was able to make you laugh!
Yeah, it is nice to see regularly updated content. Also looks like the mc is practically god lmao. He gets domed by a pan and just: Oh, almost died, no problemo lol can't wait for the continuation of the story
personally i enjoy the fact that these novels arent finished yet; You get to watch the game grow, and i like having updates instead of blasting through the story, because it feels like it will never end, more updates are on the way and i dont have to be sad that its over for good
Somehow I missed your comment. My apologies. MC is quite resilient, yeah, haha. What the reason for that is, though.. you'll find out at some point in the future. :P 0.15 goes public next Monday. :)
i gave all my money to the begger and was punished for it like an hour later i should be mad but thats some nice attention to detail and might be my own fault for giving away 5000 but normally games dont think that stuff through which is why im happy YOU did :) oh and great game i really enjoyed it and the attention for the environments and clues is really good still cant find any hampsters tho....
Hehe. Props to you for being generous, though. But yeah, decisions don't always have immediate consequences. Some early ones are still open.
Thanks a lot for your kind words. I appreciate them greatly. :) If you want help in finding the hamsters, come join the Discord. There's a list with hints for all of them, and there's always someone around to help, too, in case the hints don't suffice. :P
It's been hinted at whose those were already. The big revelation shouldn't take much longer, though. One or two updates after 0.15 maybe, depending on their length. :)
I will admit I was a bit skeptical of Crimson High at first but I have now grown to love the story and the characters. My favorites (couldnt choose just one honestly) are Jun, Miko, Kana+Kagome, Nene and Suzu. Loving the game and everything in it. Cant wait for the next update.
Hehe, I'm glad that CH was able to convince you of itself. Thank you for playing it despite your initial doubts! I'll try my best to make you love it even more going forward.
Next public update comes out on Tuesday the 9th, so you won't have to wait for much longer!

Gladly! Enjoy the game and have fun with it. :)
I assume you tried the help button in the top right?
The teddy bear on the top row of the shelf below the poster holds the phone. Click it to advance.
i tried it but nothing happened
The phone is a little small on Android, so you might have to fiddle around with it a little until you hit it.
I'll increase the button's size with the next update so it'll be easier to click on Android.
Am I tripping or the Miko dream scene was taken out? I played this game a long Time ago and I'm 100% sure there was a scene with her fucking in my dream but now even after 2 playthrough I can't get it.
Completely tripping!

Check out the options. There are settings to customize it.
Probably should've mentioned that somewhere, lol.
I'm having an issue with the new version, everytime I go to update it it says it's not installed because something went wrong
Yeah, something is weird with Android updates lately. I'll make a dev log with instructions on working around that on here and on Patreon in a moment and then link those in my answer to you.

wow! Thanks. I thought you were just gonna ignore it. I really appreciate it. :-)
I try to take feedback into consideration whenever I can. :)
Hey Vertigo,
you made me an addict ;-)
I simply love the game and have to say, the story and the conversations are nothing but fantastic! Sometimes my belly hurts from laughter, while being impatiant for the next update to come!
Nonetheless, I've got a question: what's your nationality? Due to my profession, I spent quite some time in the US, as well as in Japan and neither have I met an American with such a knowledge about Japan, nor an Japanese being able to "play" with the english language so well!?
Mind telling? Anyway, please keep going!!
Hi there!
Thank you so much, that's awesome to hear! I'm glad you're having fun with the game. :)
I'm German, actually. Never been to Japan or the US. :P
I do, however, use English almost more than German at this point and I've always had a penchant for languages and word plays/puns, I guess.
It's really nice to see that my weird kind of humor is appreciated. Thank you! :D
LOL,I'm German as well and enjoy playing with words likewise. Makes your story even more outstanding! Color me deeply impressed!
Heh, nice! Thank you, man!
Feel free to join the Discord, too, if you want to hang around with others who like CH (including me occasionally, lol). :)
This and Sensei Overnight are the 2 VNs that I check basically weekly at this point. Great job man, the story has me completely hooked. Keep it up
Thank you! I appreciate that a lot. :)
I'm enjoying the game and the plot. However, I just downloaded the latest release and when I attempt to start the game, I get the following error (this is the error.txt file contents the game created - playing this on a pc and downloaded the 16.1-pc file):
I'm sorry, but errors were detected in your script. Please correct the errors listed below, and try again.

Tue Oct 11 20:33:46 2022
Any thoughts as to how I might be able to correct? Thank you and keep up the good work.
I assume you added the new files on top of the old version?
Try making a clean install where you extract 0.16.1 to a completely new folder. That should fix it if I'm not mistaken.
Should that not work, let me know. Either on here or over on Discord. :)
Yes, I had copied the files over the previous version that I had and received that error. I have now tried starting it from it's own folder and the game has started without the error. Thank you for the reply.
You're welcome and I'm glad that it works now. Enjoy. :)
Ngl, came for the girls, stayed for the plot on this one. You've got legit creative talent Vertigo, and that results in a game without cringey forced relationships, something this genre is kinda plagued by typically. Kudos, can't wait for the next update!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that. :)
Next update is coming soon. Feel free to join the Discord for regular(-ish) updates on the progress and to chat if you want. :)
Can't update to 16.1 on android. Keep getting error.
App not installed as package conflicts with existing package
I did have to back up my saves and uninstall/reinstall but it is working now.
On with the story!
Lucky you! I can't access my save file because of android things!! Deleted and restarted from the beginning.
Your stock android file explorer can't find the save files, but there are plenty of explorers in the play store that can, even without rooting. I've had luck with one called X-plore. Start at Android, then data, find the game files, (in this case, it's Vertigo.crimson.high), copy the save folder somewhere temporarily. Then reinstall everything, and paste your save file back in the original location.
I have was able to find and save the .Save files, but it wont let me save it back in the original location. Even if I change the whole folder name, the app wont access it
You may have better luck saving the individual save files to the new install's save folder, rather than trying to move the whole save folder at once. If that doesn't work, you can come to the discord, and I'll help you troubleshoot more.
I jacked it into my PC and used the file explorer there to back up the saves. Deleted the app through android and then reinstalled. Then copied the saves into the new folder
That's sadly a thing that seems to be part of the latest RenPy update. I have yet to figure out a solution for it. Sorry for the inconvenience. I hope you enjoyed the update. :)
The froggy chair 🤣🤣🤣
Well, I should say it's not much of a game and more of a visual story since there is little interaction but I love it! The story is really entertaining so far, I love the myriad of characters and how they're all different with all their ups and downs, ways to react and so on. You really made a good piece and deserve much respect! Keep up the good work!
Indeed, it's a visual novel and not one of them sandbox games out there. :P
I'm glad to hear that you love it, though! Thank you very much for your kind words!
Well, these days most of the time when people hear "visual novel" they expect a kind of game... but you're definitely right, nothing says it should be. They should coin a new term for when they expect that. Anyways, thanks, and you deserve it
Yeah, for some reason they do. I guess the definitions aren't as clear cut anyway. Not that it really matters too much. There will always be hybrids and stuff that will blur the lines. The important thing at the end of the day is that the player has a good time.
Thank you! :)
the visual novel with the best story that I have had the opportunity to play, every moment that ppasse It's a work of art, I can't wait for the next update to come out
Thank you so much! That's really kind of you! :)
Next update just released for Patrons and will be available to the public in a week from now! :)
What do you use to make the avaters
Koikatsu
The download link for android isnt working (could be my phone i suppose) says it stsrts but it never shows up in my files.
I think that's on your end, sorry. You could always try downloading it via PC and then transferring it onto your phone.
I came(heh) for the naughty game, stayed for the story. This is one of the best VN's I have played yet. Especially on this site. The cast feels like actual people, and the story is top notch. Keep up the fantastic work!
PS. I have a love/hate relationship with the cliffhangers. I have said, out loud, TWICE, "Damn... You SoB." 10/10
Hehehehe. I love to hear that! Thank you so much! :)
I'll do my best to keep doing what I'm doing! :)
Cliffhangers are the worst, aren't they? You gotta love 'em. :D
Love this VN btw. The only complains I have are the painful cliffhangers but the storyline and hype makes up for it.
Glad to hear that, thank you!
Cliffhangers are part of the deal, but it's cool that they are no deal breaker for you. :)
Takashi sex when
Probably not anytime soon, lol
Is pregnancy inside the game or planned to be added?
Nope. Not going to be a thing in CH, sorry.
I think Okami3 is the cheekiest of all of the hamsters so far lol. Only just found it after cheating a little to see who was in the image so I could pay more attention to scenes with them.
Also only just noticed Touka isn't in the profiles on MC's phone. Is she not actually a LI or is it just because we have mostly just interacted with her in passing? Though, I suppose it would make sense if she weren't though with the entire class being one.
Edit: Jokes on me commenting before reading the latest Patreon post, lmao
Hehe. Yeah, Okami's is indeed a bit on the harder side. Cheater. :P
Indeed. 0.16 will hopefully make those things a bit more clear.
Touka is indeed not a main love interest. That does not mean that there won't be any content for her, though. Just.. less. :)
Jokes on you indeed, haha. But hey, there is no harm in asking anyway, lol.
Safe from NTR ? And since i see many heroine is there's gonna be a harem ?
Yes and yes!
I wasn't really expecting to like it since I am not particularly into anime but I loved it!
One thing that has sort of been bugging me is that the principal seems like the MC's best source of information on Myths right now and he doesn't seem to be taking advantage of that very well. I don't believe he has asked her about his abilities, although I would think she could have learned about it already through Reina. I also don't think he has asked her about his connection to Miko (he might have and I just forgot though) or Jun's connection to him either. He also didn't ask her about his telepathic connection to Kana at the end of the current content. Come on, MC! You're a detective! :)
He's also in a completely new world to him and being thrown around like a sack of potatoes on an Irish farm. :P
I know some things are "obvious" to the player, but I also try to emulate the confusion he must feel in that situation.
This might be a subjective thing, but I think that, if I were in his position, I'd quickly feel so overwhelmed by new impressions and things that my usual thought processes would be altered by it. Also - and that's not a small feat - shit's happening all around him, so his mind is often preoccupied with the latest development. Plus, some things you as the player know are not what the MC knows or sees.
His abilities for example are something that you recognize as abilities because you are on our side of the 4th wall, whereas he may think of it as just something that happens to him. He doesn't expect to suddenly have abilities at all, since he's "no one special", so to him it may seem weird, but not necessarily like something that's worth asking about when there are so many more important and urgent things happening around him.
It's obviously just me trying to emulate what someone would maybe feel in a similar situation, but I think it adds to the story if the MC doesn't always act perfectly or completely logical. Makes him more authentic in my eyes. :P
That being said, I'm glad to hear that you loved CH! Thanks a lot for playing and enjoying the game! Means a ton! :)
I agree and I like your style of writing and story it reminds me of love and submission
By Veqvil? I loved that game and it's such a shame that it has been abandoned. Thank you. :)
i found this game around the time it first dropped and immediately fell in love i just love story driven VN type stuff however out of every vn ive played (18+ and non 18+) id have to say thus is in my top 10. it has a very unique idea that i dont see much of maybe i have not gone that far into these types yet but this and demons of hearth are the 2 best VN ive come across in alooooong time. please keep up the great work because iam now to invested in the story your creating. :D
Well, dang! Thanks a lot! It's awesome to read that you think of CH this highly. :)
I'll do my best to hopefully even improve the game over time. :D
Thank you for playing Crimson High!
And i will be reading your story every step of the way. i tend to see VN on itch tend to be way more thought out and much more different form the ones you buy and CH is not any different. when i came across this VN i thought of it like it was a point and click murder mystery type of VN but i am so glad that i was wrong because now everyday i check on here and your patreon for updates and i only do that for 2 other VN (TWISTED WORLDS by SNATS and Demons of the Hearth By Knovel) i am a sucker for a good story so keep up the great work i want to see this story through ill be here every step you take now waiting for the story to continue. :D
Haha, thank you, man!
Next public update (0.15) will be on Monday. :)
You can also join the Discord and hang out with me and others there if you want. I regularly post progress reports on there, which would tell you more about when the next update is due. :P
I am joining the discord rn idk if ppl have the same name as me but i might be the first person in the server named bimbo lol
iam so hyped for the next update though like idk how i can put into words on how much i enjoy CH and its not me just saying it either i do genuinely love CH
Hehe. I love to hear that. Thank you, man. :)
Love the game, curious to see what's to come. Love the story, it isn't boring and also isn't just sex driven, it's a story (not just :"achoo"... Let's have sex). Sooo. The MC is the king of myths? Just curious 😉
Thank you! I appreciate your kind words. :)
MC is.. something? Maybe? Or isn't he? I guess we'll find out together in the future. :P
😉
great game, didn't expect it to be kinetic novel (not sandbox), but quickly get used to that and i had a lot of fun, can't wait for more
Thank you! :)
*sigh* now ill just patiently have to wait for next version but great work bro
Shouldn't take much longer!
Thanks! I appreciate it. :)
Quick question, is there a way to keep my save data so when when the update comes i can start from where i left off?
They should transfer over to the new version on their own. On PC they do it for sure and on Android they do so as long as you leave the current version on your phone until the new one comes out. Then, when downloading and installing the new one, it should ask if you want to update the application. Just confirm and it should keep your save files.
If you want to make sure, you can copy the save files via file browser and put them back into the next version manually. :)
Ok thanks
Really awesome story so far. Feels like it pulls influence from World of Darkness, but puts its own fun spin on it. Excited to slowly discover what makes MC "special", with some theories floating in my head. Also the cliffhanger is pretty brutal, subscribed on Patreon so I could get the next update a bit earlier!
Thank you so much!
I actually have no idea what World of Darkness even is. If it's anything like CH I should maybe watch it, though. Or read it? Play it? Consume it!
Eitherwho, feel free to drop your theories about MC into the Discord. And don't forget to link your Discord and Patreon for access to the patron-only channels. If you wish to do so, that is, of course.
Thanks a lot for your pledge! It's greatly appreciated! :)
Next update shouldn't be too long!
World of Darkness is a tabletop RPG system/universe with a similar premise - basically hidden societies similar to the way they're done in Crimson High. Pretty famous video game made around it was Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines.
Given you didn't know about it, it's impressive some of the parallels that coincidentally can be found to it.
In any case, excited for more!
Oh! I do know of VTM, but I wasn't aware of it being related to World of Darkness. Haven't played VTM either, however, but I've heard good things about it. Maybe I should, if it's similar to CH.
Excited to deliver more!
vértigoAVN me podrías enviar una repuesta de si hay posibilidad de volver a jugar esta joya en español latino, descargue la última versión lanzada pero está en ingles y no soy muy bueno descifrando palabras, te lo agradecería mucho por favor.!
Lo siento, pero no hay una traducción oficial al español ya que yo mismo no hablo español. Sin embargo, he visto que existe una traducción no oficial al español. Puedes encontrarla usando Google. Siento no poder ayudarte más allá de esto.
Ok gracias por haber respondido, ya me las arregle con un traductor de apps gracias, espero poder jugar más, que Dios te acompañe saludos!
La verdad no me esperaba jugar este juego aunque buscaba de este tipo, a poco raro de ver la historia, me sumergió en su trama, hasta me hizo pasármelo en una madrugada, quedé lastimosamente en la sita con Mijo, porfavor mantengan la continuidad, gracias por leer esto, se les quiere, al creador'es gracias no tengo más para decir es un buen juego.
Bueno, muchas gracias. No soy un hablante nativo de español, así que esto es la traducción automática, pero agradezco sus amables palabras. :)
I hate Itch man. 6 hours of content and bam. cliffhanger. Itch always recommends incomplete games, and it gets annoying. Really cool game though. Can't wait to continue on with the story. Kana is easily my favorite right now. She gets so mad, and it made me laugh more than 20 times lol
It's always a bummer when a game isn't finished yet, isn't it?
New content is released regularly, though, so you won't have to wait for very long until you get more.
I'm glad to hear that Kana was able to make you laugh!
Yeah, it is nice to see regularly updated content. Also looks like the mc is practically god lmao. He gets domed by a pan and just: Oh, almost died, no problemo lol can't wait for the continuation of the story
personally i enjoy the fact that these novels arent finished yet; You get to watch the game grow, and i like having updates instead of blasting through the story, because it feels like it will never end, more updates are on the way and i dont have to be sad that its over for good
Somehow I missed your comment. My apologies.
MC is quite resilient, yeah, haha. What the reason for that is, though.. you'll find out at some point in the future. :P
0.15 goes public next Monday. :)
I am going to die from happiness. Genshin 3.0 today, Crimson High Monday, I think I'm in heaven, I mean Elysium lol. See ya Monday!
Please don't die, even if it's from happiness. Afaik dead people can't really play CH. :P
i gave all my money to the begger and was punished for it like an hour later i should be mad but thats some nice attention to detail and might be my own fault for giving away 5000 but normally games dont think that stuff through which is why im happy YOU did :) oh and great game i really enjoyed it and the attention for the environments and clues is really good still cant find any hampsters tho....
Hehe. Props to you for being generous, though. But yeah, decisions don't always have immediate consequences. Some early ones are still open.
Thanks a lot for your kind words. I appreciate them greatly. :)
If you want help in finding the hamsters, come join the Discord. There's a list with hints for all of them, and there's always someone around to help, too, in case the hints don't suffice. :P
Speaking of, it makes me wonder when someone (Most likely Suzu, tbh) will uncover the panties the player had the option to take at the start lol.
It's been hinted at whose those were already. The big revelation shouldn't take much longer, though. One or two updates after 0.15 maybe, depending on their length. :)
Was it? Must not have put two and two together when it was lol
It was veeeery subtle, so I can't really blame you for not noticing, haha.
I will admit I was a bit skeptical of Crimson High at first but I have now grown to love the story and the characters. My favorites (couldnt choose just one honestly) are Jun, Miko, Kana+Kagome, Nene and Suzu. Loving the game and everything in it. Cant wait for the next update.
Hehe, I'm glad that CH was able to convince you of itself.
Thank you for playing it despite your initial doubts! I'll try my best to make you love it even more going forward.
Next public update comes out on Tuesday the 9th, so you won't have to wait for much longer!
Awesome. looking forward to it.
I am enjoying the story but am curious as to if the updates are on a regular basis or somewhat random?
I'm glad to hear that you enjoy the story!
The updates aren't on a fixed schedule, but there's at least one per month currently.
Normally there's 2-4 weeks between updates.
Cool thank you
