- Dusk and Dawn release this weekend! - 2 October 2018
The continuation of the story begun in Crimson Gray will be releasing very soon! Follow the page here if you want to know as soon as it's available: https://store.steampowered.com/app/894460/Crimson_Gray_Dusk_and_Dawn/ I've added achievements and completed the last tasks required for a Steam release, so I hope that there will be no obstacles. Steam's changing policies required me to rework some things, but the plan right now is to not require any patch to play the full game. If you are interested in Lizzie and John, please check it out when it releases! I tried to show some glimpses of their future while still giving the two of them a satisfying conclusion. If you'd like to see more, please cross your fingers along with me for the launch!
- Crimson Gray: Dusk and Dawn - 4 July 2018
The Steam page for the sequel is up now! Check it out here for more information: https://store.steampowered.com/app/894460/Crimson_Gray_Dusk_and_Dawn/ https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F33017040%2F48ddf560a8f1cb55feecdd6e12ca058762a5ff4b.png This VN will be a sequel to Crimson Gray - and as you can see from the image above, you'll be playing from Lizzie's POV! I enjoyed writing from her perspective and have a few tricks that I hope will make it an interesting experience. Please think of this as "Crimson Gray 1.5" instead of a full sequel. It will be shorter than the first game (and priced lower), basically a chance to revisit the characters and explore a little more of Lizzie and John's story and world. If you are interested, future information until the actual release will be on the game's page. Thank you for following my work!
- Sierra's Developer Page - 19 June 2018
Steam has just launched an open beta for creator homepages, which I think is definitely a good thing. Before, it was necessary to use game page updates to talk about new games, which never felt quite right to me. Now, if you are interested in following me as a creator, there's a centralized location! First, you can anonymously follow my dev page to be informed of new releases, sales, and so on: https://store.steampowered.com/developer/sierralee/ That page is built on top of a public group, which you can join here: https://steamcommunity.com/groups/sierralee Updates to this game or information about direct sequels or spinoffs will still be posted here. In particular, you'll definitely see the preview of "Crimson Gray 1.5" that I promised last time, but I want to have more of the art assets finished to show everyone. If you like what you've seen of my work, please do look into these new f…
- Trading Cards! - 3 June 2018
Whatever the unknown requirements are from Valve, Crimson Gray was just recently allowed to submit trading cards! After a little work, we have the complete set accepted and now released. So if you want Lizzie to grace your profile, want to see some previously unreleased John concept art, or just like collecting cards... now is your chance! Note that you should receive drops for time already played. For most of you, that should mean that you receive the whole set of cards immediately. Though the requirements remain a mystery, this is a positive sign for my other games. It may not happen immediately, but they are likely to be given cards in the future. Rest assured that if a game is permitted to have cards, we will make it happen! Expect the next update here to be a preview of the DLC expansion to Crimson Gray. ^-^
- Crimson Gray 1.0.3 + Issues - 19 May 2018
Hello, everyone! We've uploaded another version with more fixes that we hope will make the story a smoother experience for new players! I want to thank everyone for their messages of concern regarding the removal of games on Steam. To answer your questions: no, I have not received any messages threatening removal of Crimson Gray. We are monitoring the situation and have always made every effort to comply with Steam policies. The plan is still to go forward with the Steam release of Ouroboros. The DLC expansion to the story of Crimson Gray is still continuing! The text is essentially complete and we can now confirm that we have the original artist on the project! We look forward to bringing you more of Lizzie and John in time. ^-^
- Future Projects - 11 March 2018
Hello, everyone! I'm happy to see that people are still enjoying Crimson Gray. I am here today to talk about two things: a sequel to this VN, and another game from me that will be coming out soon. First, I'm pleased to announce that I have a new game coming out on Steam this week! It is an RPG instead of a VN and has different themes than Crimson Gray, but if you like my writing and characters, check to see if it might interest you: http://store.steampowered.com/app/793450/Desecration_of_Wings/ Second, I can now guarantee that you'll see a little more of John and Lizzie! I've been writing a short followup to this story that catches up with them two years later, exploring a bit more of their lives. I can't say exactly when I will finish writing, much less when the game will be ready for release, but please look forward to it! I will report about it here, but you can also get updates on d…

- Crimson Gray 1.0.1 - 23 July 2017
We just finished uploading a new version of the game that contains a few minor changes that fix things after the patch is applied: - The lower main menu items are now correct. - It should be easier to get the Completion achievement. These changes will probably have no impact on you, but we hope they improve quality of life a little for those affected! EDIT: Some users have reported gallery problems in this version. New players shouldn't have an issue, but if you had a problem with unseen content unlocking, you may want to do a complete reinstall.
