Okay, the folder for ManaWriter should be correct in the zip now, and the readme.txt is there. Just download the lastest version of the file. Any other issues, please let me know

Oh! You're correct, it used to be in there, it's not now. Also, there seems to be another issue with this last update, and the name of the folder created when you unzp the zip file on OSX. I'll update and post here. Sorry about this!

Thanks! And good luck with your writing, too!

TYSM and I'm glad it fixed the full screen error! I've been using as well, to write my next novel. It is SO MUCH FUN. I'm so glad I made it, and I'm so glad everyone else seems to get enjoyment out of using it.

Thank you!

I mean, it does support curly quotes when I do it like """"" 

But it doesn't support smart quotes, which is created from MS Word and the like? So not sure it should be an issue if you're not copying and pasting? Unless your keyboard is cooler than mine and supports things mine doesn't lol. The same with the EM dash, you listed above, I think.

INTERESTING. Hmm. TBH these are video game fonts I bought made by someone else (I list the credits in the credits file), so sadly I can't control that. Though that is frustrating. I wonder if I can find one someone else made that is the right look/feel/size and DOES support those

I just tested every theme, and the font "" appear just fine for me, not as rectangles? Are you copying and pasting it from a word doc or something like that? Just curious!

The volume is supposed to appear as rectangles, it's supposed to look like the volume going up and down on old tv/vcr, lol. And yeah, it does require a smaller font. Which theme did you use that had the issue? Each theme has its own font, and I thought I made sure the ones we had in there could handle curly quotes just fine.

And the cleartext update is up now, with the sound fix!

It's up now! If you have any other issues let me know.

Thank you for your kind words! And yes, the font update and volume update is coming later today. I'll have instructions on how to update in a blog post on itch to go along with it.

Okay, yes, it was the cooldown delay when the menu item is selected! So on Monday's update this should be fixed for you.

Honestly, me too, and I have a monitor that I can test it on! It might be a bit, because I will have to adjust everything to a different resolution to get that to work. So a future update at some point, for sure!

Huh! That would be cool. Maybe for a future update I can figure out how to do portrait displays!

Great! It does look much clearer, so here's hoping this fixes it for everyone :) And still keeps the retro SNES look

I will add an ability to turn down the music or off, same with sound effects, in a future update for sure. 

Thanks for letting me know the error about the mac version. I was testing it on Mac and haven't had that same issue.  Did it give you any error codes at all? I'll see if I can add that fix in the Monday update I'm sending out. I won't be able to add the music/sound additions Monday, but will hopefully have the fullscreen issue fixed.

Thank you for bringing this to my attention! It seems on some monitors/etc yes it does get very blurry. I figured out a way of solving the issue, and created a new font system to fix it. 

Got it almost done, just need to testing and debugging to make sure the update doesn't break anything. Probably go live Monday as the "ClearText Update" lol.

It looks pretty sharp. I'll update the screenshots here when I update monday.




Any examples? I just want to make sure it has that 90's dark industrial sound for this game I'm working on...

Dude, if the devs wanted their games on your site, they would've approached you. What you're doing is theft

Thanks for letting me know, I wasn't able to test with an xbox controller (don't have one), but it might be if you're using the analog stick rather than d-pad?


The controllers I know it works with for sure are-

+Playstation 3 and up controllers

+Switch Controllers

+8Bitdo Controllers

Rock on! thanks so much

I was wondering if there was a way you could do this so every other page is a back? That way, when I print them on my duplex printer and do double sided, it will print the backs on the back. Thanks!

LOL As I was making the game I was like "I should be writing, not making a video game"

which, 100% accurate

You can just make the price $15, and not have this issue?

Okay, I've been looking into it. Will let you know when I have a fix and an update you can install

What are you playing it on, a mac, windows, or Switch? Do you have the latest update?

Great thank you!!!!

In the song listing for 1.1, a lot of the tracks are missing? A few I really wanted. Are those still in the pack if I buy it now, or where they removed?

it's out now!

Lots of fun! Some great art, some really cool ideas. I can't wait to run this with Labyrinth Lord

Thank you! 

Used the Spooky Spells song as the theme for the Fear is the Fire horror podcast

Very cool!

Thank you!!!!!! 


Hopefully soon!

VGA era games aren't blurry, though? And since (back then) all monitors are CRT monitors...no pixels would've been sharp and crisp, they would've blurred

Oh wow, that's a new one! It literally says "Can't open."

Send an email to

hello@riddlefox.com, and I'll send you a steam key. I wonder if it's a Mac App permissions thing, and steam might actually work around it.
