𓂃˗ˏˋ⟢ 𓂅 ࣪⟡̵͝ ₊ ೃ̶͂ ࿔̶̽⟡̷͛*⋆

This past stretch we’ve been quietly cooking a bigger, cleaner, more “real demo” version of SPRKLS.exe.

A version is now available where you can choose between two different modes and two different vibes to explore this digital world.

1. ( ˶˘ ³˘)♡ Meet sparkles! - Narrative Mode ( ˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈♡)

A story-focused mode where you spend one whole day with Rin and meet her best friend Sparkles, a little adorable ghost who suspiciously knowledgeable about your files.This mode is about:
- dialogue + mood
- exploring the desktop as a place
- finding story fragments hidden in plain sightDig into their secrets, get lost in their memories, doodle all over your desktop, and grow flowers.

2. ⋆.ೃ࿔*:・Disturbing dreams... - Gameplay Mode°•ᶻ 𝗓 𐰁.⋆☾

is a gameplay-oriented mode where you can immerse yourself in Rin's dreams by solving window-based puzzles. Start discovering the world of Mirrors OS, even if you have a lot more questions than answers at the beginning.

✎𓂃˙ᵕ˙ To make your journey more fulfilling, we have added new assets. ᝰ

Highlights:- pancakes.png - yes, sparkles feeds you pancakes. Don't ask her how long they were in the folder.

- the opportunity to look in the mirror and realize how fast you've grown.

- an eye that definitely won't stare at you from the screen for suspiciously long .

- little cat, he feels quite comfortable in the bin, this is typical for a cat.  Who knows how many times he will run away before you can catch him.

- wonder where this photo is from...

We’re looking forward to your feedback after your play sessions! Tell us what issues you ran into, what you especially liked, and what you’d love to see more of!  It would help us a lot as we continue development!

The adventure is just getting started! Thanks for being the best part of our digital community.
See you in the next update!⋆.˚⟡ ࣪ ˖
