Cycle 928: A storm causes severe destruction.

Cycle 930: A stone said to have mysterious powers is found by a meatman near a river bank. After supposedly causing the deaths of three people, the stone is either lost by its owner or disappears.

Cycle 933: The regentship declares the recovery phase of nearby lake Crimson Sand to be over, and fishing in the lake resumes.

Cycle 936: Heiress Melissa is ousted and flees after an attack by a rival clan that leaves the regentship in disarray.*

*The events following this incident are unknown, as multiple sources contradict each other regarding the fate of the overthrown descendant.

While Melissa supposedly returned to reign over her land after coming to an agreement with the attackers, some contemporary sources insist that this Melissa was an impostor, deceiving both the public and the attackers as no family members remained who could have identified a supposed schemer. An alternative theory suggests this new Melissa was created by the attackers themselves, who reigned by proxy by deceiving the public with the supposed return of the heiress.

However, it is just as likely that the fleeing Melissa was ultimately caught by the attackers and forced to act as a regent, while the attackers dictated her every move and policy from behind the scenes henceforth.

Curiously, there are also claims that Melissa indeed was able to make her way to a distant place, where she then led a quiet life.
Cycle 940: Heiress "Melissa", the then-current regent, passes away from a mysterious illness. Though speculation exists that she may have been gravid at the time of death, there is no offspring to succeed her. In absence of an heir through familial ties, Chief Advisor Rogrett - only a few cycles earlier known as the leader of the attacking clan - steps in to take on reigning duties.

Cycle 941: Regent Rogrett normalizes relations with surrounding clans and agrees to the delivery of 20 Mouflon furs as payment for custom-fitted jewelry.

Today marks AwSW's 6th anniversary. It's a little hard to believe so much time has already passed since the first game!

To celebrate the occasion, we have added some new merch on our Redbubble store: clothing and phone cases can now be selected for some of the designs.

I'll also take this opportunity to provide an update about the development of my next game: Angels with Scaly Wings, part 2.

In the past year, I finished writing all the content that is available during a first playthrough. All this writing has also been edited.

My next tasks are implementing the editor's comments and finalizing the text, and starting to put this in the actual game (programming).

Right now, I am almost done finalizing the text for chapter 1 - which in itself is the size of a novel. In total, I am estimating the final game will have a word count that is roughly twice the size of AwSW - if not more (350.000 - 400.000 words).

Character designs are almost finished at this point. That means this category joins music and backgrounds, which also (almost) cover all the content that has been written so far.

We have also made significant progress with the in-game character sprites, though we still have a fair amount left to do.

Last year was also the year we wanted to make big strides with CGs (the big illustrations accompanying certain events which are usually only seen once in a playthrough). Unfortunately, we haven't made as much progress on this front as we would have liked. We still have a lot of work to do here!

I remain committed to bring my vision for this game to life in the best way we can. With this in mind, when should you expect to be able to play the game?

I don't want to promise too much, so I'll say at this rate we are aiming for Q4 of this year.

We'll just have to see how things evolve and progress throughout this year. We'll certainly try to do our best!

Cole is a dragon of many talents. As a producer and seller of fruit, he is usually seen offering his wares in Covenant City's market street - where he also picks up the latest gossip from his many customers.

His job sees him commute to and from Idyl's End regularly to pick up the latest harvest or move his stock. Luckily, the roads between the cities are relatively safe nowadays, but that doesn't mean leaving the city walls is without any risk.

The desert's dirt roads can still be treacherous, and the mountains hide many a secret.

You may have already noticed the 50% off sale we have active on the game, but merchandise is also discounted right now in various stores:

Pawprint Press has a store-wide discount active until Cyber Monday, which includes the Adine body pillow cover:

Warning! The text below may constitute spoilers for people who have not played and finished Angels with Scaly Wings yet!


Collective survival requires cooperation. Cooperation requires consensus.

But the future has made things complicated. Meaningful consensus requires a system of ascertaining the greatest good. Who makes the decisions? How will it be decided who is chosen to take on the responsibilities of the new world?

Humans returned to what they knew: Politics.



Robert Lamon is an ambassador who represents New Bastion in all political matters. Working closely with the leaders of all three cities, he is - in a way - representing humanity to dragons, not unlike how another ambassador once did in the dragon world.




Cameron Barnes became Covenant City's first officially elected Mayor. Wanting to experience the height of human civilization, it was his decision to rebuild Covenant City as it once was. Honest to a fault, his attitude of wanting to please everyone during negotiations sometimes comes at his own detriment. At least, according to his critics.

After the great journey, a message was sent out offering a place in this new sanctuary to any survivors around the world.

The tale went far, much further than Covenant City initially expected.

Soon came the first travelers, a miracle celebrated by those in charge.

They had endured the dangerous trek through the desert - evading raiders, starvation and other dangers alike.

More followed, graciously accepted into the vast Covenant City that was filled with empty buildings.

But the influx of new arrivals from all over the continent never stopped.

Soon, there were too many to safely integrate into the precarious, still-developing infrastructure of the fledgling metropolis.

And so, a camp was erected from the remains of an outpost not too far from Covenant City itself. Here, new arrivals would remain while Covenant City did its best to clean up the abandoned skyscrapers and offer the new homes - once readied - to those waiting in the camp.

But what was believed at the time to be a temporary accomodation became more permanent for some. Demand for new homes in Covenant City outgrew the pace they could be offered. The camp, lacking the luxuries and pomp of Covenant City, grew ever larger.

At least there was no shortage of work to go around as people from all cities worked together to rebuild.

And the camp, now with a labor force the other cities depended on, eventually declared independence after long having outgrown its purpose as a simple reception camp and waiting room.

Sure, in New Bastion - now a city in its own right - conditions were basic and didn't have the cutting edge technology of Covenant City, nor the comfort of Idyl's End - but it was livable.

With demand in Covenant City homes ever outpacing their supply, some focused more on building their future in New Bastion instead of hoping Covenant City would keep its promise...
