Happy Halloween guys and gals! Just popping in to remind you that Mystik Belle is 50% off during this year's Halloween sale! Also, hopefully I'll have another Mystik Belle-related announcement for you very soon, so stay spooky!
Hello Guys and Gals! The day is finally upon us - today Mystik Belle was released for PS4 and Xbox One consoles by the awesome WayForward. Let us hope it does better there than it did over the last two years here, on Steam (which is to say not very well: ). In case the consoles aren't your cup of tea, and you prefer your games with slightly more potty-mouth than E10 rating would allow for, get…
Just in case you didn't know, Dan Rogers' amazing chiptune soundtrack is available on BandCamp for the low-low price of whatever you feel like! Also, the main branch of the game has received a minor update. · Added support for D-Pads on (legacy) Direct Input controllers. · Added a brand new VFX for collecting items. · Added a short animated clue when passing by the Raccoon lair for the first ti…
Hello Guys and Gals! WayForward, a company that in the past brought us wonderful original games like Shantae and Mighty Switch Force, is bringing my Mystik Belle to consoles! The new, console-optimized version is coming to PS4 and Xbox One sometime early this October! Meanwhile, you can still get the up-to-date, perpetually-PC-optimized version of Belle right here on Steam: )
Hey Guys and Gals! Here comes a new update (RC5A56), this time to the Beta and Default branches! For those on the default branch there are lots of new cosmetic and menu additions: · Added musical intro. · Added new art to the true ending. · Changed the way game speed works (Normal/Turbo only now) · Added View Port (16:9/4:3) selection. · Lots and lots of fixes.
I have added two new experimental graphics modes to the game's Beta branch. Under the Advanced Options there are now three choices for View Port: · 424x240 - The original internal resolution. Okay for scaling to any 16:9 display size. · 480x270 - A larger view window. Should scale perfectly to 1080p 16:9 displays. · 360x270 - A 4:3 mode for those rocking this aspect ratio. If anyone wants to gi…
Something I always wanted Belle to have was custom animations for all her puzzle solutions. Unfortunately, at the time of the game's release I had to write these off as an impossible luxury. However, with this update the game moves a few steps closer to my original goal! Now many of the game's puzzle solutions will be accompanied by a silly player animation. Also, I have nicely spruced up the g…
Mystic Belle's Beta branch has been updated with a new build, introducing some pretty radical new features. First of these is the introduction of the difficulty select at the start of the game. The player will no longer be able to flip the difficulty at will during gameplay, as the modes are a bit more different now. Second major feature is the addition of warp chests. These are only available…
I have added a Game Speed option to Mystic Belle! The feature is currently in beta, and will allow any player to change the game's absolute speed between 50% and 150% of normal. The setting can only be changed from the main menu, as changing it during gameplay can cause unpredictable behavior. You can access the newest version of Belle on the Beta branch, with password "nowheretorun". Cheers!
As a game developed in GameMaker: Studio, Mystik Belle has been initially released locked to the framerate of 30fps. I have since learned the error of my ways, embracing the light of PC Master Race: ) The game has been overhauled in order to play at a far more acceptable 60 fps! Here are the changes in the new version RC5A37: · Added a main menu option to switch between 30 and 60 fps. · Moved a…
Hello there guys and gals! Mystik Belle has just been updated with another language option. This time it's a full French localization courtesy of the awesome Steam user Jelogisa , who has done the whole thing by himself, using the retail copy of the game. So, whoever was on the fence regarding Belle's adventury goodness due to lack of French dialogue option - you no longer have an excuse! Cheer…
Hello there guys and gals! Just as the title suggests, with yesterday's update Mystik Belle has received a full Spanish localization courtesy of one awesome dude - Javier Fernández Romero who did the translation work all by himself, using only the stock retail copy of the game. Flippin' amazing! Mr. Fernández does localization work commercially, so if you ever in need of such services, hit him…
Hello there boys and girls. Autumn is officially upon us, and you know what that means – Halloween! And what's more Halloween-y than Mystik Belle, I ask you?

Thinks like: · 7 New audio tracks! · Brand new en…
Hello guys and gals, Tonight I have released another semi-major update to my game. In addition to a cumulative bug-fix, the patch addresses a number of gameplay complaints. First and foremost, the dash condition has been loosened, but in such a way as to prevent unwanted activations. I hope this kind of a change works for everyone. The second change is also dash-related. The forest hall with th…
Hey guy and gals! Tonight I have posted the game's first major update. It includes various big fixes and aesthetic changes here and there. The biggest change is the ability to define Item menu and Interact to different buttons, as well as the ability to redefine controller keys right from inside the game. This even includes legacy controller support, though since those have no clearly defined b…
