  • 3rd Anniversary of Crimson Waves on the Emerald Sea! - 30 December 2024

    Today marks the 3rd anniversary of Crimson Waves on the Emerald Sea! 3 years ago today it released after a short few months of development. The original concept was simple—an unlikely duo travel the Victorian countryside and towns searching for a cure to vampirism. The story expanded into the 26k adventure it is today, focused on the four main characters Nemo, Cecil, Lucie, and Ambrose. Since release, over 4k people have traveled with them across Steam & itchio! Earlier this year we announced a sequel game, Crimson Waves on the Emerald Sea: Amaranthine Moon, set around 5 years after the events of the first game, following Lucie as the protagonist in an otome-style mystery with 3 love interests. We've been working on this sequel for months and recently released an updated demo in October. If you're eager to see the main 4 back again as well as a new cast of characters, then give it a try…

  • GUI Overhaul + Other Updates - 8 January 2023

    Crimson Waves on the Emerald Sea recently celebrated its 1st anniversary! It's been played over 2,000 times across Steam and itch.io- thank you to everyone who's played it so far! Today's update of the game is mostly graphical. The GUI was always a placeholder one and now the full GUI has been implemented! This GUI overhaul includes a Gallery, a new menu that allows you to see the cut scene artwork from the game. This menu can be accessed once you finish the game. Along with the updated GUI, I also fixed a few typos in the script. This will most likely be the last update for the game, so I hope you enjoy! If you'd like to read more about the development process, there's several devlogs on our website you can read. One last things- you can now buy keychains of the cast of Crimson Waves on the Emerald Sea for our merch store! You can get them here ♥ — Arimia

  • Achievements are live! - 10 January 2022

    Achievements are now live and working in this latest update! Thank you everyone who's played Crimson Waves on the Emerald Sea so far, the reception has been wonderful and I'm truly happy people are liking this type of visual novel. If you'd like to read more about the development process, check out our devlogs!

  • Release! - 30 December 2021

    Crimson Waves on the Emerald Sea is now released! 🎉🎉🎉 After 4 months of solo development, CWES is now out to the world. What started as a few scribblings in my sketchbook in August is now a fully playable story about a group of 4 people navigating the Victorian era and the aftermath of an unsolved vampire attack from a decade prior. Treat this more as a tale that you're coming along for the ride for rather than an interactive story, as this is a kinetic novel with no choices. Sit back for 2 hours and follow Cecil and Nemo along their travels. I hope you'll enjoy the journey. — Arimia ----- If you'd like to read about the development process, there's several devlogs readily available here. Twitter ♦ Instagram ♦ Newsletter

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Sep 24, 2026 to Sep 24, 2026
  • Lowest observed: Free
  • Highest observed: Free

Crimson Waves on the Emerald Sea's USD price history spans from Sep 24, 2026 to Sep 24, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is Free, the highest is Free, and the first visible tracked price is Free. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

Crimson Waves on the Emerald Sea's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at Free, from Sep 24, 2026 through Sep 24, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at Free. The latest run records Free for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: Free
  • Current list price: Free
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records Crimson Waves on the Emerald Sea at Free in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
