11/5 FixesNew patch went up, here's the quick summary.

Finally finally finally finally, the bit where you could get softlocked on chapter 1 should be fixed.
Remixed the audio for [spoiler]The Shifting Mound fight[/spoiler]. She should no longer be louder than the rest of the game, and the audio quality for the in-game version of the transformation track should be significantly improved.
Various smaller bug fixes, including clipping issues with some sprites, a few other lines of audio getting loudness adjusted, and some typos.
The accessibility menu should now correctly be directly accessible from the main menu.
What's Next
Controller support could be a lot better. I think this is probably a longer-term project on my part. Ren'py is a little finicky and assumes choice menus will be wholly represented on the screen instead of presented in a scrolling box. I'm not sure the best way to immediately improve the feel of that scroll, but it's something I'm actively thinking about.
Sound mixing overall could still be better. I have a backlog from the pinned thread, but I wanted to make sure the worst offender, [spoiler]the Shifting Mound fight[/spoiler] was addressed in the short-term. On that note:
Install space - right now, the game has a lot of uncompressed audio, since working directly with those raw files makes my ongoing efforts to tweak sound and gameplay issues much much faster. Once I'm confident everything's in a more settled state, will be converting voice files to flac to save space while preserving quality. We won't be compressing any of the visual assets in the game - want to make sure those remain as crisp as possible.
A few other accessibility fixes are on our roadmap as well. Ren'py's built in accessibility fonts scale directly to font-size in terms of points, which means that right now, if you switch to a different font, the Princess' text will appear much larger than any other text, and can occasionally run off the screen. I'm not sure what the best fix for that is just yet since we're just leaning directly on our engine for that functionality, but I'm hoping I can figure something out.
We've maybe been starting to think about some more fun things that aren't just fixes but for the time being
[ 2023-11-06 01:38:38 CET ] [ Original post ] Warning: this game contains occasional flashing images. If this poses a health risk to you, please proceed with caution.You're on a path in the woods, and at the end of that path is a cabin. And in the basement of that cabin is a Princess.
You're here to slay her. If you don't, it will be the end of the world.
She will do everything in her power to stop you. She'll charm, and she'll lie, and she'll promise you the world, and if you let her, she'll kill you a dozen times over. You can't let that happen. Don't forget, the fate of the world rests on your shoulders.
... don't you trust me?
Features- A princess. She's very bad and you have to get rid of her for all our sakes.
- No, the Princess isn't a cosmic horror. She's just an ordinary human Princess, and you can definitely slay her as long as you put your mind to it.
- Don't even think about trying to romance her. It won't end well for you.
- Hopefully you won't die. But if you do, you'll die a lot. Be careful and stay focused on the task at hand!
- Time loops No time loops. Don't be ridiculous. Time is a strictly linear concept and it certainly doesn't "loop," whatever that's supposed to mean.
- A branching narrative where what you say and what you believe determines both your build and how the story unfolds.
- A new roleplaying experience from the creators of Scarlet Hollow.
- Fully voice-acted by the impeccable Jonathan Sims and Nichole Goodnight.

Slay the Princess is a choice-driven psychological horror visual novel/dating sim with dramatic branching, light RPG elements, and hand-penciled art.
