- v 1.4.0b released! And some news! - 1 August 2026
Hi everyone, here is a minor update: add two classes (Berserker and Armor Knight). Hector can promote to Berserker Leo and Lea can promote to Armor Knight I'd like to take this opportunity to mention that I tried using AI to improve my game's script, but I wasn't satisfied with the results. So I won't be using AI at all in my game. One other point: the software I’m using for my game is SRPG Studio. There will be a new version called EX (around November). After giving it some thought, I plan to migrate my game to the new engine and release a completely free update. However, I have other priorities besides my game and am in poor health, so I can’t guarantee that I’ll be able to release this update. Like always thank you for your support, David Nguyenps: I slightly playtest by doing another run.
- v1.4.0 released! - 24 June 2026
Hi everyone,here is a major update, the change:complete rework of difficulties, now fully customizable.Drawbacks are:- bad and impractical menus, - can only change difficulty at the preparation screen, - need to restart the map (save/load) to apply the changes,- no longer relevant icons difficulty at the save screen. I add 7 difficulties presets corresponding to the old difficulties(Very Easy, Easy, Normal, Hard, Very Hard, Hardest, Challenge).You can toggle the following options:Permadeath -> ON OFFAI Lv -> 1 2 3 4 5Basic Exp -> 24 20 16Exp x 1.5 -> ON OFFBonus Exp multiplier -> 0 1 2 3Bonus Gold -> var 0 1 2 3One ally defeated Game Over -> ON OFFMust defeat all enemies -> ON OFFextra items for enemies -> ON OFFextra skills for enemies-> ON OFFextra skills for players-> ON OFFReverse mode -> ON OFFMore allies -> ON OFF10 difficulties covers these two options:Enemies Parameter correctio…
- Next update and Ex version news! - 11 February 2026
Hi everyone,I plan to rework the difficulty system. Currently, there are eight difficulty levels (including one cheat mode). My plan is to allow players to freely adjust each difficulty option—for example, turning permadeath on or off. I will also add seven difficulty presets corresponding to the current seven standard difficulties.The downside is that players will only be able to change the difficulty settings on the preparation screen, not during maps.For those who are curious, here are the available options:Permadeath → ON / OFFAI Level → 1 / 2 / 3 / 4Enemy stat adjustments → − / 0 / + / ++Reverse mode → ON / OFFExtra items for enemies → ON / OFFBase EXP → 24 / 20 / 16Double EXP → ON / OFFBonus EXP multiplier → 0 / 1 / 2 / 3Bonus Gold multiplier → 0 / 1 / 2 / 3Must defeat all enemies → ON / OFFGame over if one ally is defeated → ON / OFFInitialize RNG → ON / OFFThis update should com…
- Clarent Saga : Tactics Ex (?) - 2 January 2026
Hi everyone, As you know a new version of SRPG Studio (named Ex) will come out in november 2026! After some thoughts I may make with it a (paid) version named Clarent Saga: Tactics Ex. What I plan are improved graphics (resolution) and add a reworked game script with the help of AI. Note this is only a possibility and I may change my mind. The game is considered complete and finished so enjoy this version! Of course it will remain available and free on steam! Happy new year! David Nguyen ps: I probably won't use AI to rewrite the script, but I may migrate the game to SRPG Studio Ex and add the new motions for example.
- Last news - 15 October 2025
Hi everyone,last news:- I will remove from Steam the last DLC with no content for those who wished to support me:Squire Tier 1.99$ - I can't thank enough those who bought the DLC to support me. Of course the game will remain free on Steam.- The dlc has also been removed of the Clarent Saga bundle (there are 2 games : prologue and chronicles). The next sales will be -80% for both games so 1$ for prologue and 2$ for chronicles, the bundle will only cost 2.40$ on sales! - With SRPG Studio 10th anniversary, the software won't get many more update. There is no plan to migrate to SRPG Studio Ex either (only notable changes are bigger resolution and more tiles). - So no more update. After all these years and countless hours of game making, it really feel strange to think that's the end of it.Farewell,David Nguyen.

- next update and news - 28 June 2025
Hi everyone, some news: - I have removed from Steam most DLC with no content for those who wished to support me: Emperor Tier 4.99$ King Tier 3.99$ Liege Tier 2.99$ Knight Tier 1.99$ I have kept the Squire tier 0.99$ (it is more symbolic than anything now). I think it was a mistake to ask people for money for a free game. I am grateful and thank all people who bought the DLC (some even bought all the tier(!)) and the game when it wasn't free, it means a lot for me. I got a real job so I won't try to make more money with Clarent Saga Tactics. But I would be happy if you give a try to the other games of Clarent Saga (Prologue and Chronicles)! With SRPG Studio 10th anniversary, there are more sprites! I will update the game one last time with these, and also update SRPG Studio. Maybe I will add more plugins and quality of life feature if I can implement them. I also want to rewrite and imp…

- About the future of Clarent Saga - 1 April 2023
Hi everyone, here are some news regarding Clarent Saga. Clarent Saga Tactics II is only an idea project but I guess it will remain as such. I am running out of ideas, energy and ressources. I will keep improving/updating the first one instead (if I can). Concerning Clarent Saga: Chronicles, I wish there is more sale (I sold around a hundred copies) but it is alright. I will still participate in the maximum number of steam sales, the greatest discount was -40% and I will accelerate the rythm of discount. The maximum amount of discount will be -70%. In truth, I don't know if game creator is appropriate as my role for this game, game conceptor may be more accurate. Graphics, musics, battle system, script novel were (not done by me and) only put together by me, and I did only supervise and ensure the best game I could deliver. When the game will reach -50% discount, I will make a clarent sa…

PS: The idea of making Clarent Saga: Tactics II would be nice but I guess I am running dry of assets/ideas/energy and I am working on another RPG Maker game so it will take priority over this sequel.
- Clarent Saga Tactics II Idea Project - 20 January 2023
Hi everyone, after some thought I am thinking of making a follow-up game. A SRPG Studio user knwown as Von Ithipathachai has made a sample project, and I want to use it as a base for this sequel. It will be made with the same software (SRPG Studio), the first one was made with Fire Emblem 4 in mind, I want to make it a side game like Fire Emblem 5. The idea is to make a more complex and harder game with varied objectives. Some changes idea include: change battle formula, skills, breakable weapons, add a weapon rank and support system. Lots of asset will be reused but the maps will be new. It will be a paid game but I don't know if I will do an early access or make a complete version before releasing it. Please note that I will work on Clarent Saga : Chronicles and complete it first. Thanlk you for your support! David Nguyen.
