Changeling Tale Anniversary Update Released!
The Big Update Is Here!
Just in time for the anniversary of Changeling Tale's release, we're happy to announce the release of Version 1.0.2.4—what we've also been calling the Polishing Patch!
This update brings a host of improvements to the game’s art, sound, and animation, including:
🎨 Over 50 scenes touched up for aesthetics and consistency
🏃♀️ Sharper character sprites and new alternate poses
🎬 Better flow and immersion with enhanced movement, refined transitions, and environmental tinting
🎶 Six remastered music tracks and additional sound effects
❔ New "what-if" illustrations, animations, and much more!
It’s the perfect time to journey back to Ach-na-Creige, or experience its magic for the very first time!
To celebrate Changeling Tale’s anniversary and this patch’s release, we’re offering a 20% discount on the Game, Art Book, and Soundtrack through January 1. Read the full announcement here!
If you own Changeling Tale on Itch.io and do not use the Itch client, please ensure you manually download the latest version of the game. For all other players, the new patch will update automatically. If you experience any issues or bugs, don’t hesitate to reach out to us!
A Huge Thank You to... You!
I want to extend an enormous thank you to all of you for continuing to support us and enabling us to make Changeling Tale the best it can be! This patch brings earlier chapters up to par with our latest work and includes features we didn’t have time to add during development. I'm so proud of how far Changeling Tale has come, and can't wait to continue the journey with Rowan's Chapter 1 next year!
But first, two additional items that will arrive in a new Beta Build a little later this month: RenPy 8 compatibility, and a brand new, heavily illustrated bonus story. We'll have that out to Beta Tester tier patrons very soon!
Happy Holidays from all of us at the Changeling Tale team! We hope you have a wonderful season and enjoy exploring the latest build of the game!

I can always use a good excuse to go through it again. ;)
I'm really glad that it's replayable!
Real basic question here: what is the font used in the text in this game?
The majority of it uses a font called Dumbledor! You can find and use all of the font files in the game inside the folder game/fonts
When will the bonus story be available to sponsor tier and what will it be about?
It will be available once the sketches have been painted and any bugs in the transition to RenPy 8 have been ironed out! We don't want to spoil what the bonus story is about to anyone just yet, but if you follow Watsup's Picarto streams you may catch him working on it!
I like that Grace's story has higher quality. Will there be a time when I can check the NSFW image in the story?
Not sure I follow the question, but all the updated art is currently in the new build of the game and available right now both in the in-game galleries and the Full Res Art Pack download!
I do hope that Effie is the most sexual route not out of perversion but because it would be funny. Her being a rabbit it would be an interesting story because I know how every girl has to deal with their animalistic instincts how would it be having to deal with a gf that is horny all the time that would Be interesting and incredibly hilarious!
Ok thank you
Thought I owned it on Itch.io, but I think I got the steam key back in the day. Shame I was trying to download on my phone again. edit: I see i own the early access version on Itch.io but not the full game version. That's fine I'll buy it again when I get paid tomorrow
Hey Jared! If you were previously under the name Coolgamer122, it looks like I sent you an Itch key when the game released! I'll message you directly here on Patreon to confirm!
Damn Awesome
o7!
Thank YOU! I'm loving what this game continues to become. Throughout this project's lifetime, you guys have shown your love and passion for it. Congrats to you!
It's been our absolute pleasure to get to tell this story for everyone! Looking forward to writing new chapters and new characters in the years to come!
Can't wait to get back to Ach-na-Creige :3
It'll be just like how you left it, except for all the subtle improvements we made!
Derpy question, how do we see/find those "what-if" works? Thanks for your great product, still a fan, stoked about the update :D
You can find two of them in Jessie's Chapter 3, and one more in Marion's Chapter 4! Happy hunting :D
Congratulations and happy holidays. Can't wait to see all the new changes. And can't wait for that new bonus story when it's available for the rest of the tiers.
The bonus story ended up involving much more art than we'd originally planned-- if you catch any of Watsup's streams on Picarto, you might be able to catch him coloring them! Happy holidays to you as well!
Wow, this looks cool. I’ll have to check some of these new stuff out (by the way, what are some scenes with the walking animation mentioned?)
Now when characters enter or exit the frame, they often do so using a walking animation instead of a basic slide!
hey will there be an update where we end up with bunny girl if it has not been made already?
We certainly have plans for Effie, but first we will be creating a new story line with the dragon TGTF romance, Rowan!
