🌟 New

Starting today, Post+ can no longer be enabled on blogs. In case you missed it: Post+ will be going away in January. You can read more here.

The option to pause (and resume) your queue is now available if you’re using the experimental Queue 2.0 options on web.

The options to shuffle, pause, and resume your queue are now available in the iOS app (version 32.3+)

The flow for Blazing a post on iOS has been redesigned to be easier to use (starting in version 32.3 of the iOS app).

When you receive a push notification about a recommended blog, tapping that notification will now take you directly to that blog instead of a little preview of that blog in your “Following” tab.

It’s that time of the year: Tumblr Year in Review 2023 is up! Head over to @fandom to check it out.

🛠 Fixed

Yesterday, there was an issue that caused it to appear like you automatically followed back any blog that followed you (no auto-follow backs actually happened). The follow back was just a display error, and we’ve cleared that up. If you want to become mutuals with that blog that followed you, you’ll have to go click that “Follow” button yourself.

The aforementioned iOS app update to address frequent crashes has been released.

The little notification that shows for folks using an unsupported browser is no longer obscured by the login/sign up footer on the logged out Explore page.

We fixed an issue on web where sometimes in-blog search results would be displayed as unstyled text.

Also on web, we fixed an issue on the “Your tags” tab that caused the location of the tag filter modal to be affected by scroll position. It now displays correctly (in the center of the screen).

🚧 Ongoing

Nothing to report today.

🌱 Upcoming

We’re working to add a new setting to give you more control over who can mention your blog. Stay tuned!

Experiencing an issue? File a Support Request and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can!

Want to share your feedback about something? Check out our Work in Progress blog and start a discussion with the community.

Act I Content Updates

Total Word Count: 397,252 (340,451 w/o code) Average Playthrough Length: 98,327

I’ve taken into account the past few weeks of feedback, typo/error reports and my own desire to polish up Act I before working further on the in-progress Chapter VI in order to bring you a interchapter content update! I would like to thank the many insightful reports and posts I’ve gotten on the Forum and Discord for helping to further enrich the story thus far. As always, notify me if there are any errors or mistakes with this smaller update. If there’s any areas I could touch up the new character option, please let me know as well.

All of the relevant updates are listed below. I advise you to clear your browser cache before opening the update on COG Demos due to startup edits.

Act I Changelog

New Character Customization Option: Transgender Male Character

Consentia scenes given edits to provide more clarity and insight into her character

"Your Family" Codex Entry, activating in Chapter II.

Numerous typos fixed and bugs stamped out.

Author's Note on the Transgender Male MC Option

I originally intended to include a transgender man character option in addition to the transgender woman character (Nova) option. However, I wasn’t able to reconcile an out and transitioning trans man with the strictures of the matriarchy. I left the “transm” variable as an artifact of that unfortunate triage.

Now, I have found a way to thread the needle. In this variant, the Trans Man Prefect is closeted, having to bury his identity deep to survive in Iudia’s hostile matriarchy. He chooses an additional name at character creation to reflect how he sees himself beneath the lies he must maintain before the world.

Corresponding text has been added to almost every file to account for a Trans Man Prefect, particularly in the Sorcerous career. Trans Male Prefect will be able to come out to a truemanced Julia when selecting your relationship type, which affects dialogue with her. There is also new significantly more dialogue added in the Castra of Chapter II, and an entirely new scenes variant involving the Legate in Chapter IV. Just as with the Nova Prefect, there will be more to come in subsequent chapters and more ways for this Prefect to both express himself and struggle for a better future.

wanna know something incredibly frustrating that has been blighting me for years that I have been unable to figure out. firefox sometimes just does not work. when I say it doesn't work I mean some websites do not load properly or respond at all, and make me think the website itself is giving me issues, and then I try to open it on chrome or ecosia and it works lightning fast with zero issues. firefox has all my preferred add-ons and I generally like it as a browser and don't particularly want to switch over bc chrome is stupid and ecosia never has any add-on support which is frustrating but like. I just tried uploading a video to youtube and it's been sitting at "uploading 0%" for ten minutes now and then I tried opening ecosia and it uploaded in literally under 10 seconds. sometimes I can't edit my website on firefox and I think squarespace is bugging out bc it keeps giving me errors and then I try it in chrome and it's perfect with zero issues. also this new great thing has been happening the past month where firefox will just crash out of nowhere for no reason and then not allow me to submit the crash report. I've tried restarting and resetting and clearing cookies and downloading new updates and everything and NOTHING works it's like firefox is just broken and I have no idea why it's not working smoothly

Development Update - February 2025

Hello everyone! Miyazaki here with February's development update for Mythaura. We covered a lot of ground this month—it is probably the single biggest month for us in terms of development. We're excited to tell you about some of the things that we've finished up and look forward to sharing even more features with you in the future.

Note: Last month we'd said that we'd be posting about Wolfwasps...that's postponed until next month. We will be posting Wolfwasp lore as well as hosting a ✨radiant✨ giveaway.

Co-op Demo

Players will be able to explore the world of Mythaura—both overworld locations like Talon's Rest as well as the procedurally generated Wild Areas—in groups of up to three players. If there are only two players, you can add an additional Beast to the party lineup.

Players can no longer be added to a Party if they cannot access the Party Leader’s location (e.g., if the area is not yet unlocked in their game).

When a player joins a Party, they will automatically move to the Party Leader’s location. Any location change must be agreed upon by all Party members.

By default, only friends can invite you to a group. However, we are exploring options for players who may want to allow invites more freely or block them entirely.

If a player disconnects, they can freely reconnect and will be placed back in the same location.

Forums

The Forums are the heartbeat of Mythaura's social scene. Whether you're looking to share your most recent PVP builds, recruit people to join your adventuring party in the Waspwood, or talk about how excited you are for Patch 8 of BG3 to come out (not that anyone's excitedly waiting for that, of course), the Forums will have a place to house your discussion.

Mythaura's Forums feature a Reddit-style posting system, with the ability to create nested replies.

Forums will feature:

Trending threads: What are the most popular recent threads? This feature will showcase threads that are receiving the most engagement at the time.

Tags: Players will have the ability to tag their content, helping other players find and sort through relevant content.

Thread following: Keep updated on threads that caught your interest. We know you're waiting for your favorite artist to release the baby Basilisk Glamour they've been teasing for a while.

Markdown styling to customize your posts exactly how you'd like them

Bug Bounties

During our Closed Beta window, the Bug Reports category will be special in that it will function as an issue tracker. Each thread can be marked as a duplicate of another and have a status & severity tied to it, allowing users to follow a bug, reply to indicate they have also encountered a bug, and see what status a specific bug has.

Bug Statuses

New: The default status

Confirmed: A programmer has been able to replicate the bug and confirm its real

Duplicate: This is a duplicate of an already-existing bug

Fixed: It’s been fixed!

Closed: Closed without fixing, such as if this turned out to be user error.

Severities

Low: Typos, minor visual glitches, asset issues, and browser-specific issues that do not impact gameplay.

Moderate: Functional bugs that cause inconvenience but do not break core mechanics.

High: Major bugs that significantly impact gameplay, progression, or player experience.

Critical: Urgent security vulnerabilities, game-breaking exploits, data loss, or anything that could severely affect the integrity of the game or its economy.

To encourage thorough testing and reporting, players who discover and report new bugs will receive a Shard reward once a programmer has confirmed the issue. Rewards scale based on the severity of the bug. Only the first player to report a bug is eligible for a bounty—duplicate reports will not receive rewards. Players who provide exceptionally detailed reports, including steps to replicate the bug, may receive bonus Shards at the discretion of the development team. If a bug is found to be abused before being reported, the player may not be eligible for a bounty and could face consequences.

User Profiles

Beasts are at the very core of Mythaura gameplay, so we want to ensure that you have several ways that you can show off your cast of characters with the rest of the site.

Featured Beast Groups

The Featured tab allows players to showcase collections of their favorite Beasts in a slider. Players can group beasts into customizable folders with a name and background. Up to 5 groups can be featured on your profile. Show of your favorite beast collections!

Abode

The Abode contains all of a user's Beasts. The two-toned background on each of the Beasts is based on their combination of Elements.

Gallery

Galleries are collections of items users would like to showcase.

Galleries are a separate inventory, so an item in a Gallery cannot be added to the satchel or sold until removed from the Gallery.

Stats

The Stats page will showcase a player's statistics across the Gameplay, PVP, and Forums categories.

Dossiers

A literal blank canvas! Enter your custom HTML and CSS to make pages that are uniquely yours.

Winter 2024 Rewards Reveal

Winter 2024 Glamour: Shire Unicorn

Winter 2024 Companion: Ornaboros

Winter 2024 Solid Gold Glamour: Quetzal (Young)

Year of the Snake Companion

Happy Year of the Wood Snake, everyone! It seems that with the arrival of the New Year, a colorful companion has slithered its way into Mythaura.

For the remainder of the Ko-fi shop being open (through the end of 2025), the Auspicious Ophidia will be available for purchase in both its non-radiant and radiant forms. Sponsors of ALL levels may purchase these companions.

Kirin Expressions

This month, the expressions team—the ever-talented Luci, Sour, and Koa—finished all expressions for the adult and young Kirin. (I'd like to give a personal shoutout to Luci for making the "sad baby"/fourth expression so pitiful...what did they do to deserve feeling like that 😭)

Osstelids

Sponsored by: Lomon

Our final sponsored Companion comes from Lomon, who came to us with a wonderful design for a fairy + ferret creature. Thank you for sharing your vision with us and letting us implement it into the game!

Reminder: NPC Design Contest

As we begin to populate Talon's Rest, we'll need plenty of NPC designs—and that's where you come in!

We've created a Google Form for you to submit up to three Beast designs for consideration. Please be sure to include the Beast Creator code or else your entry will not be considered.

In addition to their design being used for a shopkeeper, winners will receive a bundle of useful items for their adventures through the local Wild Area, the Waspwood Forest.

The winners will receive*:

1x Soulshift Coin (breed-changing item) of your choice

1x Godspeed Potion

3x Lockpicks

3x Crude Torch

3x Travel Rations

3x Small Energy Potion

3x Small Health Potion

1x Beta Key

NOTE: * These rewards will not show up in your rewards lookup tool since that tool only looks up Ko-fi rewards, but they will be applied to your account directly!

Writing Updates

Main story three-act outline completed

Main story greenlit

Intro quest currently being storyboarded; script to follow

Co-op Gameplay: Players can now form and manage co-op groups. Integrated co-op battles and overworld interactions and adjusted co-op parties to allow global co-op in any location.

Class & Species-Specific Overworld Abilities: Introduced unique abilities based on class and whether the species flies.

Elite Enemy Detection: Added elite enemy detection, idle behavior adjustments, and footstep sounds for improved immersion.

Boss Encounters: Introduced bosses in towns and wild areas.

Fishing Minigame: Added 28 unique fish, catchable in an interactive minigame.

User & Beast Dossiers: Introduced an initial version of the dossier system.

Settable Pronouns: Beasts can now have pronouns set that NPCs will use in dialog. By default, this is linked to your beast's gender, but can be changed. Users can also set pronouns, which will display in their profile and forum header in the future.

In-Game Currency Display: Shards and gold are now visible in the UI when shopping or viewing inventory.

Added Time-Based Passive Effects: Which will allow us to add time-based effects, such as using a torch and having Illumination for 5m.

Cipher Buildout: Began build of Cipher features.

Thank You!

Thanks for sticking through to the end of the post, we always look forward to sharing our month's work with all of you--thank you for taking the time to read. We'll see you around the Discord.

ur random char button is broken

Thank you for reporting, but this is too vague and we could use some more information.

How is it broken, and are there any errors you're receiving? Does the issue persist if you use a different browser or device?

If you send another ask that describes the issue, I can report it to our developers!

(This goes for any bug / glitch being reported!)

[shepherds-of-haven]

at the end of the all heroes eve celebration in the alpha demo i get an error where i cant continue, and ive tried even skipping the celebration and get the same problem. is this intentional? sorry for the bother!

Hi there, not intentional, but I just uploaded a fix for this just now! You may have to close your browser and revisit the link again to get it to work now, but the problem should hopefully be fixed! Also, if you ever see a scary red error or pop-up message, just assume it's not intentional and submit a bug report through the form! Thank you! :D

[jcollinswrites]

News about error messages

Those errors about achievements not being defined and non-existent variables are probably browser cache bugs. (I'm not sure but that's my best guess). They are caused by your browser storing old info. The errors have been reported.

If you haven't done so, please hit restart BEFORE you start playing the game. That seems to solve most issues. Sorry about this, I know it's annoying but I can't do anything else about it :c

[zarla-s]

Can you guys help me with something? I've been getting reports of issues downloading some of the ghosts on my site! Mainly that clicking the links for the .nar/.zip files doesn't do anything, and you have to right-click, "save link as" to get them to download, and even then there might be some errors.

The odd thing is that I'm not encountering this issue at all, but I suspect it's browser related - I use Firefox, but most people use Chrome these days.

SO! Can you go to one of these sites and try to download the ghosts on Firefox and see if the links work or give you errors? I've already added notes about download issues on all of them, but I'd like to confirm it's a browser issue if I can.

Hunter and Smoker Radic and Farnsworth Dr. Gaster Temmie Spamton

(I suspect it may be an issue with my sites being http instead of https, but that's mostly because my hosting charges more for a security certificate and I've been putting it off, haha. Maybe this is the impetus to actually do it though...)

[sleepdeprivedespressoandvinyl]

Hey, Americans who are pissed at Google for the BS about the Gulf of Mexico, use Firefox instead!!

So you heard or saw the fuckery regarding the "renaming" of the Gulf of Mexico and want to tell Google to fix it's shit? Well you go to report the "error" but what's this? You can't??? Why, they've turned off the reporting function for the Gulf renaming idiocy! So you go to leave a scathing review as your next step. But lo, the review you left had been deleted!!! Absurdity at it's finest. Google won't listen to us, and won't accept criticism. So how about "Fuck Off Google" and go with a tried and true alternative?

Behold, I present to you ✨ MOZILLA'S FIREFOX ✨

Firefox has been around since the Browser Wars. And while Chrome was declared the supposed victor, Firefox still persists doing good work. Firefox has customizability like dark modes, syncing across devices, and loads of extensions, but a big plus is that Firefox also allows you to actually utilize ad blockers AND doesn't sell your information all over like Google does.

"But Wyrm, I have so many bookmarks and tabs open in Chrome" WORRY NOT, FRIENDS! Mozilla is aware of this and ready to help! They have a whole page with step-by-step processes on how to switch over and it's really easy. I did it myself years ago and they continue to update the page. You can access it here.

Also for search engines, Duck Duck Go is GREAT instead of Google

Duck Duck Go also values privacy and is very easy to use and it can easily be changed to Firefox's default search engine (or another search engine if you wish) following these steps here.

What about Google Maps and Apple Maps? (Unfortunately Apple is also renaming the Gulf it seems, so there goes using Apple too) While those navigation apps are really convenient (that's how Google and Apple have gotten so powerful. Well, that and reeeeeally good PR teams), there are options (not Waze unfortunately, that's owned by Google) but you can check out MapFactor (a bit clunky, but free and streamlined) or, for the really Olde Ones here, MapQuest is still alive and kicking (and even has an app on both Google Play AND the App Store and it works great! Only complaint I have is the ads, but a small thing to ignore so we can spite the monopolies in power) and it has the correct name for the Gulf of Mexico still.

Unfortunately Google owns a lot of shit, but it's still worth the effort to switch off where you can!

Alright, now you have some easy steps to tell Google (and Apple!) to fuck off massively without Google shutting you out. Shut Google out first!

Go forth and fight for what's good and right in this world however you can

Minor Update 11/27

Hello everyone!

This update includes bug fixes and some tweaks.

However, some issues still require more detailed information before I can effectively resolve them. If you encounter any problems, please use the designated reporting form to make a report, including as much detail as possible. This information is crucial for me to understand where and what might have caused the issue.

While I greatly appreciate being notified directly, I've found that this report form helps me stay better organized and pinpoint issues more efficiently. The form provides what information is needed to assist me in locating and addressing problems. Therefore, I kindly ask that you use this form for reporting, rather than sending asks on here or itch.io (I am considering changing the page to a discussion board, but I'm not sure yet). If you encounter an error, I really only need what the error says and where it's located. And please don't feel bad if you used these channels to report your issues! Your understanding on this matter are greatly appreciated.

A link to the form is available on the main itch.i page and also in the game under the 'Misc' tab. The link will open in a separate browser tab as to not interrupt your progress.

Lastly, I appreciate all the questions I've received! Please keep in mind I'm waiting to answer some due to the spoilers they contain for this part and I want to ensure many had a chance to read it. I'm going through the backlog to answer some older ones, too. Please also be aware that some questions are asking for big story spoilers (though, I'm sure most of these are just sharing your theories, which is absolutely fine), and I cannot answer them at all. If you feel that might be a question you asked, I apologize! I appreciate your patience, some of you have waited a bit, and once again I'm very sorry!

Thank you so much for your support and love!

[wings-of-ink]

Y'all, if you save to disk instead using the regular save your saves won't disappear. Some phones and browsers regularly clear the cashe and that deletes your saves. There's nothing anyone who puts their games on itch can do about that. But if you save to disk it'll be on your device and can't get wiped so easily. Sorry if I come across as annoyed or harsh, I don't mean to. I just often see people sending authors asks about their saves disappearing and authors trying to fix it when the issue often isn't something the author can solve. And no matter what the issue is, saving to your device should be a lot safer. (In case folks don't know what I'm talking about: at the bottom of the save popup it should have a button that says something like "Save to Disk" or "Export", that's what you want. To load it use the "Load from Disk" or "Import" button, also at the bottom. I name my saves after the route and game so I don't forget what they are since my memory is terrible, lol!)

So I haven't tested this personally (yet) but I did receive several reports of even hard saves being broken when both chapters 4 and 5 went in. I had just assumed that was across the board since it was a fairly common error report. But if others have had success doing this with GC, please chime in as well. Someone recently sent me a couple of their own saves to test so I'm going to play with that tomorrow and see what happens!

I'd like to patch chapter 5 soon, so this would be great to confirm!

When I read IFs, I generally prefer to start over when updates go in anyway so I very rarely use hard saves (I have so many IFs in my head that I need the refresher anyway lol).

Thank you Nony for telling me this has a shot at working, I had assumed it was just broken for GC, lol. ^_^

[thesovereignsring-if]

Hi! Not sure if you're already aware of this bug but I encountered these error messages in Prologue 2 when reuniting with Sieg and the others. Also, any option I picked results in displaying all 4 options at once.

I also have this odd follow-up choice that gives me a whole error message preventing me from progressing.

Unsure if it's a me problem but I tried restarting in a different browser only to end up with the same issue.

This bug should be fixed now! Thank you for the report <3

INTERLUDE UPDATE

Total Word Count: 591,189 (509,331 w/o code) Average Playthrough Length: 133,102

Hi all, this is another mid-chapter update, one which concerns itself with filling in some new content, revising and burnishing older content, and fixing numerous balancing issues, typos, and bugs arisen since the launch of the new chapter a few weeks ago. I would like to thank the many insightful reports and posts I’ve gotten on the Forum and Discord for helping to further enrich the story as always. Please notify me if there are any errors or mistakes with this smaller update. With this release, I'm now full steam on writing Chapter VII!

All of the relevant updates are listed below. I advise you to clear your browser cache before opening the update on COG Demos due to startup edits.

Update Changelog

Balancing issues and routing errors in the Chapter VI Battle for Kyro have been fixed.

Losing the duel to Julia in Chapter V results in an injury.

Chapter I alliance selection now emphasizes the potential of an alliance with the populists within the Senate faction.

New point-of-views featuring Augusta and Victoria have been implemented in Chapter VI.

A pious Prefect can now attempt to reject the boon and later gift of the Goddess out of humility in Chapter VI.

The opening conversation in Chapter I between the Consul and the Legate now better reflects the Consul's tendencies towards republicanism and the Legate distaste for elections.

A Prefect allied with Darius now can inform him they rejected a boon from the Goddess in Chapter VI.

There are now more indications in Chapter II, Chapter III, and Chapter IV that a Prefect who has been polite to Titus is getting through to him.

The Chapter II Day of Revelation scene has been expanded significantly with more inner monologue relating to the Prefect's chosen religiosity.

The Chapter VI funeral scene has been significantly expanded to account for inner monologue from the Prefect's reactions.

Location descriptions have been added or enhanced for the Imperial Palace, the Castra, the Grand Cathedral, and the Senate.

The Prefect can now publicly break down when Julia's urn is interred in Chapter VI.

The Prefect can have a friendlier response to Ceto should they find themselves in her den in Chapter II.

Placing Ceto upon the council, either in Chapter II or at the start of her romance, is now required to advance her romance in both Chapter IV and Chapter VI.

A Treasurer Prefect can now successfully bribe the auxiliary assassins in Chapter IV, saving Tristitia without the use of bloodshed.

Augusta is now openly more bitter and resentful of a Prefect who withheld that they were her biological parent until Chapter VI.

Numerous other typos and bugs stamped out.

Captcha Error on Donations Page

Our developers are investigating reports of Captcha not working on the Donations page. This issue appears to be isolated to Firefox browsers at this time, however, if you are on a different browser (such as Safari) where Captcha is not working for you please leave a comment letting us know with your browser and device type.

We recommend using another browser such as Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge for making a donation until our Developers can resolve the issue.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Thank you for your patience.
