These prices are so low I must be crazy! Experience the fun and exciting world of Catsapults for only $99 cents. I’m practically giving it away! This is highway robbery!
You’ll be in for a treat with this steal. If you can ignore the epileptic flashing caused by the html you’ll find yourself neck deep in pussy cat. A whole boat load of adorable kittens in many flavors. If you know anything about Twine you’ll be like wow, this is the most awesome Twine game of them all. How is this even possible?
Through obsessive year-long programming and bug squashing good sir! That’s how. This game was carefully designed to provide a solid experience from start to finish. What does that mean? The game evolves by introducing new mechanics, new graphics, new music, new sounds. Indeed I would be heartbroken if anybody considered Catsapults to be described as repetitive.
Have you always wanted a game about a cop chasing a leprechaun? Well that’s weird and we should be friends. Buy Catsapults today, so I can reach the threshold needed to make cat emojies. It’s for a good cause!

For the first time since I started making this game about 6-7 years ago there's a new equippable item slot, as shown above as the black doohickey with the "?" on it. This spot is reserved for the game's new item type, the rune!
Runes are special in that they can be used by all 5 character classes, provided that you are at least level 7 or higher first. Runes provide many varied small bonuses and can help to strengthen your class's weaknesses or pile on some of your strengths. I feel this will really help with the game's strategy as now these can help you decide what other gear you want to wear.
For example, let's check out this Rat Rune:
By equipping the Rat Rune and gaining +10% to pick locks, you might decide that you no longer need to equip a chest key in your left hand and go with a shield or ring instead. This is only one small example of many different possibilities.
There are now 20 runes in the game for you to find, 15 common and 5 rare. The rare runes can have multiple properties and are very powerful. You will definitely know when you've found one of these rare runes!
But Del_Duio, how do I get runes??
You can get runes in several ways:
Find them in chests
Steal them off certain enemies
Purchase a random rune off the Guildmaster (see above)
It's also possible that touching an Xtoli statue may change an item in your pack into a rune too
Most importantly though it should be noted that you can NOT buy runes at a Shop or a Cultist Den. Why don't they carry them? NOBODY KNOWS.
CHANGES
Catching the plague turns our rabbity friend a sickly GREEN now.
The Depths Armor has been removed from the game. This was done because the Weebish Robe was actually not on the Item Found Log already and is way more important than the rare -but not too great- Depths Armor. So it took its spot on the Log.
Only 2 things may affect you- If you've already found the Depths Armor in a past run the Weebish Robe spot will be colored in like you found it instead. But if you've found the Weebish Robe in a past run it won't be colored in here now until you find it again and the game can properly update the Log.
I know this sort of sucks, but I did it this way so that the change would not totally screw up everybody's Items Found Percentage and only effect the 1 spot.
The enemy HUD now sports a little skull. Because why not?
Changed the way the game handles shadow chests hidden behind secret walls so they have a good chance to be golden chests (and not normal ones, which was happening before too often).
The color phase indicator on the backpack inventory screen was made shorter to accomodate the rune slot.
The Skeleton Key will now open locked doors 100% of the time.
The Items Found Log now has 21 total pages of 20 items each, for a total of 420.
One of the tutorial screens about Loot shows a rune now.
The tutorial now correctly references that the game has 420 items total.
FIXES
You will now get +1 Cultist starting gift pick if you've won the game as the Cultist prior. This was an oversight from adding the 5th class but it works now.
Loading up a file to continue playing now turns your guy green if he had the plague before.
Trying to enter a building while plagued will now be impossible, like it was supposed to be before! Remember you can cure yourself by drinking water from wells, using a cure powder, or getting healed by a statue.

Well that's a pretty good one. I tested the crap out of this but of course I may miss something. Please report any bugs you may find on the ETL forums and good luck with those runes!!
To continue a wonderful summer we got more update for Stitched!
- Addressed an issue with character bust displayed incorrectly - Corrected a text error when choosing between options - Fixed a problem with character's sprite missing movement animation

Grimoire : Heralds of the Winged Exemplar (V2) - GOLDEN ERA GAMES
WISHLIST COUNT as of 25/08/2018 : 36,743
The second release of Grimoire at the one year anniversary of the game's release is progressing well! Brand new inventory workshop (see and sort all items, now apply all special crafts for classes) is done and extremely helpful during gameplay, almost changes the whole experience! In addition to new regions, new NPCs, new story lines, new enhancements to gameplay and two new title screens!
Many players have complained about the high initial price of Grimoire compared to other roleplaying games on Steam. We are considering a major price discount at the release of V2 and you can help decide what it will be!
Before we release V2, we will set the sale price according to the wishlist volume on Steam according to the figures below!
Permanent & Sale price reductions at launch of V2 :
(Spoiler below)
10K Wishlist = $29.95, Sale Price $24.95 25K Wishlist = $24.95, Sale Price $19.95 50K Wishlist = $19.95, Sale Price $9.95 100K Wishlist = $9.95, Permanent & Sale Price
If you want to lower the price permanently on the Steam store both for V2 and any future updates, you can help by getting your friends to wishlist the game and encouraging other Steam users to wishlist it. This is a chance to make the game affordable permanently for diehard fans of turn-based old skool roleplaying games!
Keep watching this page for further updates on our progress on V2, it is going to be even more awesome than the first release of Grimoire - if that can be imagined !!!
UPDATE 14/09/2018 New Content Finalized
New content to complete the story of Hyperborea and finish Grimoire as described in original design document written in 1994!
New Regions :
Tattletale Circus ! Ratfink Hideaway ! Tomb of Doom ! Theosophy Lodge ! Farulosonoth Fissure ! Titan Mines ! Titan Underground Lake ! Mount Periwinkle ! Periwinkle Village ! Mass Gainers Spa ! Cataclysm !
UPDATE 21/09/2018 Patronage Works In V2!
Players noticed that the "Patron" tag for vocations was purely ornamental in the first version of Grimoire. It was another feature that was in the original design document but did not make it into the first release because of time constraints. The purpose of the "Patron" tag hinged on shrines, which did not yet exist when the game was released. Once added to support the new functionality of Inventory Workshop, they can also fulfill their original purpose to provide a unique way of leveling-up for certain vocations. When you find the shrine that is appropriate to a profession (they are scattered throughout the game) you have a one-time only opportunity to pay in gold at that shrine to advance a level! This should probably be saved for very high level characters so they can gain yet another level without grinding the experience points but simply BUYING a level increase!
UPDATE 30/09/2018
More areas added to bring total closer to original 224 envisioned.
Screenshot of the "house" portal added to main page.
The last two are part of a Lovecraftian mini-adventure quest that is purely optional. The Accursed Church can only be accessed at night with a password given out as an Easter Egg for completion of another new quest in the game.
