Finding Color in the Ashes Alpha 1.75

Added 2025-06-15 15:01:12 +0000 UTC

hello again! This new build mostly focuses on the Dryad. Our new companion now has a name, some new art, some events, scenes, and a bunch of dialog. There are some quality of life changes and a huge rework of the combat sound effects as well.

Willow (the Dryad) still has a lot of content left to add, but she's in a much better spot now, getting close to on par with Scout and Eleanor.

I also just wanted to say thank you once again for all the support on Patreon. You guys are incredible! I hope you enjoy the update, and let me know if anything is broken or if you have feedback.

Alpha 1.75 Hot Fix

Added

2 New mid-tier enemies - the dire wolf and the echo bear.
Dire wolves replace all wolf spawns at level 15+
Echo bears replace all echo spawns at level 19+

Adjustments

Enhanced Dodge level up now gives 1 bonus dice instead of 2
You can now start spending time with companions on nights with no guests right away (before the option only appeared after the army arrived).

Fixes

Possible for Scout to not increase level after killing the Wight
As a general note, I made sure the game checks all completed events whenever you load a save, and any missing companion levels should be applied automatically now.

Once you've seen all of a character's sex scenes, you will get a menu that lets you choose which scene you want to see the next time a scene would be triggered.
