However, you will not be able to escape, perform the ritual, or reach any of the endings. - A secret room has been added with a teaser for a future story chapter. It may be difficult to find, but for players who know the map well, this won’t be…

- Fixed an incorrect light effect near the exit door on certain difficulty levels. - The pistol now correctly disappears along with the character’s hands when moving to the first trial during the ritual. - The pistol is now automatically removed from the character’s hands when the player picks up the flashlight for the pistol, so the player doesn’t have to do this manually to turn on the flashl…

I hope you don’t mind that patches are coming out quite frequently these days, they’re very small in size, so it shouldn’t be annoying. I’ll be offline for the next 3 days, so it was decided to release the patch now. Bug fixes: - The “Can Escape” note is now positioned slightly higher so it doesn’t overlap with the main interface. - The Russian localization of the word “Girl” has been corrected…
- I've fixed the code that should force Miyuki to leave her position near the ritual room, in order to prevent a bug where she gets stuck near the door for a long time. After some testing and code tweaks, I noticed that this function is working as intended, so I decided to release a hotfix immediately. I hope this bug is finally fixed now.
Bug fixes: - Fixed a bug that could cause Miyuki to get stuck behind an open door in the hallway with two pipes on the wall. - Fixed a collision issue near the small stair in the large room with containers, players can no longer crawl under the staircase. - Fixed a bug that prevented the player from exiting the padlock interaction when Miyuki transitioned from a calm state to a mad state. - Fix…
Many players encountered some difficulties while performing the ritual, so I decided to make the next changes. - Added an interface to track collected slabs. It will be located in the lower-right corner of your screen. Now you will always know how many slabs you have collected and how many you have left to collect. - Added a hint at the start of the first trial near the candle. - A flickering l…
- Fixed a bug that could cause the padlock to be broken ( the player couldn't enter the code ) on "Hell" difficulty. Thank you for reporting any issues you find in the game! I always try to fix them as quickly as possible!
- Fixed a bug that sometimes prevented players from entering the last numbers of the code. - Fixed a bug where the player could not stop interacting with the padlock while Miyuki was in a "friendly" mood. - You can now carry two keys at once, instead of just one. - Miyuki's player detection radius and angle have been slightly reduced. - The slow-down duration after triggering a trap by player h…
“Shards of Solitude” is a short game where you must find a way out or banish the ghost of a girl who will try to stop you. The game features seven endings and three difficulty levels. On each difficulty level, Miyuki’s behavior will change, and escaping will become more difficult. To reach a specific ending, you must either escape or banish Miyuki; the ending will be influenced by various choic…
Miyuki will get you very soon, this will happen on April 14th. Try to escape the crazy girl or banish her. The decision is yours! Due to some issues, Chinese language will be available later. Thank you for your patience!
