itch.io

I'd say wait for v0.45.0, cause that's kinda sorta the 2nd part of the same trip and it'd make more sense to cut at the end of the trip instead of the middle of it

No?

That is the latest content, yes :)

I know right? I'm such a terrible person, what with my basic needs and all :D

Thanks for the offer; I appreciate it!
Honestly, so far I haven't really put much thought into what languages (besides my own - German) I'd want to make localizations for. Most likely the big ones, as well as some other, comparatively smaller ones. I could see Ukrainian being among those, but that's something I'll decide when the time comes.

Once we get there, I'll likely make a post (or several) about looking for people to help translate the game. At that point, I'll probably also provide the necessary tools. Though all of this is very theoretical and things may look vastly different at that point. We'll have to wait and see what happens when CH is done :)

I try to be, at least. Some people's behavior just gets to me :D

I'll keep that in mind, thank you! As it currently stands, any translations will have to wait until the game is done, though :)

Glad to hear you enjoyed it!

No worries, that's what the payments on here are for! The game itself is free, after all. If you're paying, you're paying for early access to new updates - which I appreciate tremendously, by the way :)

I assume you're referring to the first paragraph of this post?
If so, it's pretty much a copy-paste that I've been tossing in these posts for a while now. Technically still true, though, since I hadn't offered CH on itch.io in early access for years :P

Spanish jugs? I don't think we have any of those yet, but we got some pretty neat Irish and Scottish ones.

Jokes aside, I won't be adding any localizations before the game is done, due to a lack of time, among other things.

However, I know for a fact that there's at least one fan-made Spanish localization of the game out there. Can't give you a link, but it exists. May have to sail the high seas to get it, though. You'll figure it out, I'm sure!

Thanks, mate, will do!

The TL;DR of it is that he got upset because I didn't reply to him on here for a couple weeks after he'd asked about the update's progress (which is basically done, by the way; I'm about to post the release schedule).

He got all demanding and basically kept whining about my lack of communication, the increased dev time for the current update (apparently having missed that the update is going to be longer than usual), and ultimately being an entitled little shit. All of that across like 9 or 10 messages, the last of which (and the one my message was in reply to) being this:

Hehe <3

Thanks, mate, that means a lot.
Some people are just too stuck up their own asses to see what's happening around them, or that not everyone exists solely for their entertainment.

No worries, though - CH will be finished, no matter what. Unless I go tits up, of course, but I don't plan on doing that anytime soon. There may be phases where I need to slow down to recharge, because being creative on demand can be draining, but those should be far and few between - and honestly, they are necessary, so there's no way around them anyway. Just like everyone else's paid time off and sick leaves and whatnot.

Appreciate your comment. :)

Thanks, mate. Appreciate it!

Thanks, mate. It'll be worth the wait, and it won't be much longer.

At this point, I'm tempted to. May just send it out personally to anyone but him. But I guess he's tired of this shit anyway, so I guess it doesn't matter.

Dude, what the hell is your problem?

First of all, I don't owe you an explanation, nor am I under any obligation to check this site for comments religiously. The fact that I did do so for the longest time was a choice on my behalf, because I think that's the correct way to do this.

If you'd stopped for a second and used your brain, you'd have maybe come to the conclusion that there might be a good reason why I've suddenly stopped, too. A reason that doesn't have to do with you, because, surprise, the world doesn't revolve around you.

You want to know why the latest content release is taking longer than usual? That's because the frickin' update is longer than usual. Something that I've communicated very clearly, multiple times, both on Patreon and on here. If you're incapable of reading, you may want to reconsider your choice of entertainment. Just saying.

The next update will come out when it's done. If you can't deal with that, feel free to fuck off.

The nerve of you, I swear. I've been nothing but consistent for YEARS at this point. Regular, high-quality updates; immediate bug-fixes if necessary; open communication. And THE SECOND I fail to keep that up (for personal reasons, because I've been sick for a while and had to take a few weeks off, which, surprise, happens at times, because I'm human, too) you go fucking mental, just because I don't reply to you? Because YOU refuse to use Patreon and Discord? The two platforms I've mentioned I use a lot more than itch.io?

You're ridiculous. People like you are the reason why so many developers burn out. The demands you're making are just ludicrous.

Thanks, glad you enjoy it!

It's not an intentional reference, no. I haven't played any of the Persona games before, so any references in that direction are purely coincidental lol

Very good. Not sure if reporting actually does anything, but it can't hurt. Keep it up :)

It's crazy, isn't it? Crazy annoying, too. I delete a few of them every day, but there's always more.

I'm glad to hear that it worked out in the end, and that you've been enjoying CH over the last few days :P
You're correct in assuming that Chapter 5 isn't out yet, but we're nearing the end of Chapter 4 :)

Hmm, I've never really interacted with the desktop app myself, so I can't say for certain. I just downloaded it to see if I can figure something out, but I get stuck in a perpetual captcha loop, so I got no way of actually checking what happens when you download CH via the app.

What I'd suggest you do is, first of all, get a better browser than Microsoft Edge. That one's just terrible. :P
Beyond that, though, the itch.io app should store the game files somewhere on your PC. If you can figure out where that is, you should get the same access to the game as you would if you were to download it from the game's page itself.

Alternatively, check out my Patreon. Not trying to sell you anything. The game is available on there for free as well, but instead of downloading it from itch.io (which may be what gives you trouble with Microsoft Edge) you can download it via Google Drive or one of the other file hosts I use.

If neither of those options work for you, let me know and we'll figure something out. :)

Heh, hey there. Doing well; hope the same goes for you.
Thanks, and to 2026 lol

Not anytime soon. Once the story is complete, I may commission localizations in various languages. Until then, there are a few unofficial fan translations online that you could check out. I know there is one for Spanish and Russian, and probably some others, too.

Love to hear it! Thanks for playing CH, mate :)

He did not ask for anything.

"Hey, I can't load my saves with the newest update. Is that something on my end, or is this a known issue? Can you add a feature to jump to the newest content in a future version?"

That's what asking for something looks like.

What he did instead was to complain, or to demand, depending on your interpretation of his words. Neither is really that great of an approach if you want someone to do something for you - especially if you expect them to do it for free.

More coming soon! Ish!
Thanks, mate. Glad you enjoyed the update and hope you had an enjoyable time over the holidays :)

It depends on the phone, as far as I'm aware. Generally speaking, you can transfer your save files from one phone to another. The only question is whether your phone lets you access the necessary files.

As an example, on my phone (Redmi Note 13 5G; a bit older) I can access the save files by opening the built-in file manager, then navigate to the folder "Android > data > vertigo.crimson.high > files > saves", which holds my save files. However, I've heard from others that they can't or can't easily access the same files. If you're lucky, it's similarly straightforward for you, but there's a chance that you have to install a 3rd party file browser from the Play Store. And even then, there's a chance that your phone still won't let you access the necessary files. It's an annoying part of Android devices which I (currently) don't have a solution for. I'll try to implement something to work around this with the next update, though, since I need to figure out a solution for the Android version anyway.

TL;DR: If your phone allows you to transfer the necessary files, then yes, you can bring over your save to your new phone.

Usually I'm not bothered by these things. I just really can't stand this kind of behavior.

Thanks, mate. Glad you enjoyed it. :)

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to you, too!

Because I say so. If you don't like it, go away.

Why would I add an option to jump to the latest update? Not only would that remove all your previous choices, but it'd also be pointless effort, since CH's saves generally don't break - I do my best to ensure that.

If anything like that happened to you, it's on your end, not on CH's. Instead of making obnoxious demands for a game you play for free, you may want to look into actually getting your shit together and not breaking stuff, then blaming other people for your mistakes. Especially if you're playing for free. Frickin' entitled people, I swear.

She's the best!

Sorry about that :P

Heh, yeah, Uraha gets back on Thursday. She'll be in for a hell of a questionnaire. Or will she? :P

It kind of sucks for MC to miss Suzu's therapy, yeah. We can't have him meet Miri in her therapist costume yet, though. (I'm joking.. I think.)

If growing up means no longer being able to appreciate peak humor, call me Peter Pan. And yourself, too, cause I'm sure 2026 won't change anything about that. :P

From what I understand, most (older?) Android phones are limited to APK files of 2 GB or less.
That being said, I made sure to reduce the latest update to just under 2 GB and tested it multiple times on my own phone (which is also capped to 2 GB). I'll check again, but I don't see why it would suddenly get bigger after uploading it here.

Glad you enjoy the game! Maybe eventually I'll find the time to rework the early game, to make it less rough to get into. :)

Glad you had a good time with it!

Yeah, I do try to make as many h-scenes optional as I can, but some just have to happen.

Kuro is a great character in general. I like her a lot, personally. And I'm glad that she finally had a chance to shine, indeed.

Glad you enjoyed it, and thank you!

You're very welcome!
Thank you for your support, and enjoy the update!

You're right, of course. I assume that's a big part of it for a lot of people - or even the whole reason.
It doesn't change anything, though, because it clashes with my personal views regarding pregnancy

What I will say is that there is a chance for pregnancy in the story's epilogue. At least one of the girls (no details; don't wanna spoiler) lends herself well to the role of a mother, so I may make an exception for her/them. But as I said, it's not guaranteed.

Heh, that's actually awesome. Thanks for sharing!
And I'm glad you found some more potential hints. :)
