I finally played it and i LOVE Veros and Ellyn <3  very good game i love it

Thank you sooo much! <33 We really want to make more fantasy games soon :)!

Just finished my first play-through and wanted to say how much I enjoyed it! The story is a lot of fun, the characters are compelling, the world is interesting, and the art is gorgeous. The only thing that bothered me was the minimal choices offered, but even without a lot of branching paths it's still a very worthwhile experience. I'm definitely gonna check out the other titles you guys have released.

Thanks for playing and sharing this sweet message. We're adding more choices to our upcoming games so Diamond Mirage is an exception.

If you're interested in our other games there's going to be a big sale tomorrow and you can get them very cheaply if you wait until the Black Friday Sale. We hope you enjoy :)

Hello, can you add steam keys to itch  ?

We're not planning to do that at the moment. You are welcome to visit us on Steam.

Already did, thank you for answering. 

How do you uncensore the mac version? 

Hi,

I made a quick fix. Download the newest mac version and it shouldn't require any uncensoring.

We're releasing Diamond Mirage on Steam today. Right after we update the game with extra ending content.

10/10 

Heyo, I was just wondering--I looked through comments and couldn't find the answer lol--are there voice actors for this game? Or is it just reading to music and art? I buy games for the *noises* and the *voices* so x) just wondering if this would be my type!

There are no voiced lines in this game. 

hi! i would just like to ask, i found this game while browsing and wanted to download it, but i do not have a pc. will there possibly be an apple version of this game in the future?

thanks x

Hi,

We're looking for someone to test the mac version to see if it works. If you're interested please drop us an email at aedianglair@gmail.com.

ok. thx <3

I want to start off by saying that I kickstarted the game when it was open and I'm really pleased with the result! The art is gorgeous and the story is a lot more detailed and in depth than I originally thought it would be, and I thought the characters were all written really well!

I have a few questions though, and I am wondering if an endings page will be added at any point in the future? I'd like to be able to track what endings I have and haven't gotten, and at this point I can't really tell if I've even got the main ending and read the epilogue, or if I've missed something and only read some of the mini endings.

I'd also appreciate a warning on the 18+ scene with Safana in it, because I feel the story suggested it would be a normal sort of 18+ scene, but when I read it... well, I sort of wished I'd had the foresight to know what was going on so I could have skipped it.

I also wish the epilogue had a little bit more interaction with all the characters in it, or at least a final CG with Ellyn and Veros. The ending felt like a bit of a jump from seeing Veros in Lysander's room to "oh we're all home and safe now". I would have liked to have seen the conversation between Ellyn and Veros about what happened and how they got out, and why Ellyn went back for Veros etc... but I understand it's a bit of a time constraint. I'm not really sure if I've missed anything in other endings though, so if I have, that's on me. I'd like to see a patreon or something to see the possibility of more content being included, just to flesh out the romance a bit, but I understand that's not always possible.

I really appreciated the sheer amount of CG's in the game, I was actually shocked at how many we got, especially for a game of this size! they were all really well drawn and you could tell how much work was put into them, which was really nice. The art in general is really gorgeous, and I loved watching all the characters sprites and all the detail in them.

I enjoyed all the characters as well, and I desperately wanted the best for all of them, which made the escape really nerve-wracking! Nobody felt like a background character and everyone was interesting and multi-dimensional, which made it a great read!

Sorry for the long rambling review, I really enjoyed the game, and thank you very much for all the time and effort you put into it! I hope to see great things from you guys in the future too :)

Hi,

This is an amazing review! It tells us about a lot of things in detail and that's really useful. 

I don't want to spoil it to others so I will just say that judging from your post you got the main ending :) 

There is a strong warning before the Safana scene. The text turns stark yellow as it warns the player about the (M/F +18 scene). I think that I should also add a content warning there to make it more clear.

We wish that we had the resources to expand some of the story and graphical elements in Diamond Mirage. One of the Kickstarter support tiers that sadly wasn't reached would allow us to develop separate character routes on top of what's already a 90,000 words long game. 

We do have a Patreon https://www.patreon.com/aedianglair All the support from Patreon helps us make bigger and better games.

We're glad that you enjoyed the game and we will definitely work tirelessly to deliver great games in the future!

Best regards,

Glair

thank you for the response! I’ll definitely make sure to check out your patreon, thank you for letting me know about it!

I was wondering if I had accidentally skim read the warning on the Safana scene, so that could have been a mistake on my behalf, but I do think a content warning would be great! :) 

I’m glad the review was helpful! I was worried I was being too harsh 😅

In case you're curious we might or might not have listened to your suggestion that it should be clearer when an ending is reached and also expanded one of the endings a bit. Feel free to check it out :)

I just downloaded the game and I am super excited to play it. However, when I tried to download the uncensored patch, the game won't run. I followed all of your instructions but when I click on the uncensored version start up, it says something about the game needing "elevation." Please let me know if there is any way to fix this! Thanks!

(1 edit)

Hey :)

Elevation probably means that you need to run the patch as administrator.

Instead of running the patch try downloading the uncensored graphics directly from this link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ypabk7agc9ek8ap/Diamond%20Mirage%20uncensored%20graphi...

Part1 of the solution: When you have extracted the zip file it creates a folder called "censored_graphics". Inside that folder are all the uncensored arts. We basically need to right click that "censored_graphics" folder and choose copy or cut.

Part 2: With the above folder copied or cut we need to open the game folder. It should be called something like "diamond_mirage_pc" and it might be located in another folder called "diamond_mirage_1_0_censored_pc". Once you enter the "diamond_mirage_pc" folder you will notice there's another folder called "game" among other folders and files. If you enter the "game" folder you will see more folders and files. We are only interested in the "censored_graphics" folder and we should paste the new "censored_graphics" folder that we copied in Part 1 there. Replace all files and all arts will be uncensored.

Thank you so much for the speedy reply. I did everything you told me to and it finally works! I'm so excited to play this game now

Awesome game and art !

Perhaps consider marking it as compatible with Linux since it works fine on it natively (and maybe distribute the uncensored part as a zip as exe are not really a Linux thing) ? That would make it a bit simpler (I downloaded the demo before buying just to verify it was working fine because of seeing only the Windows support).

Anyway, love it !

Thank you for the kind words :)

Did you have  to use wine or some sort of emulator or does it straight up run on Linux? I'm looking into deploying a Linux version. First I have to test it on a Linux system to make sure that it works so it'll take a while. I will definitely make a separate uncensor download for Linux with just the files. Thanks for your advice, glad to know that it runs for Linux users.

No I didn't need Wine, just running the .sh (Ren'Py in general always just works on Linux).

Cool, thanks for the tip :)

I spent $13 for some fictional pp... Can I just say ur character designs are absolutely gorgeous and the main reason I bought this game. And the clothing is so erotic too. You hit all the right marks :)

Thank you! 

Aedian is experimenting a lot with the character designs, so we're glad that you enjoy them ❤️ We always try to deliver the most pleasantly shaped pps. More nsfw and sfw games are coming in the future.

I liked your demo and the game looks great. When can I expect the full version to come out?

They have said they are releasing the final game by the end of April. The game is 90% complete as of 0.9

Exactly :) Diamond Mirage will be released this month.

Diamond Mirage is 100% finished as of right now :)

Edited but now I'm just confused, the version of the game on here is the censored version but the one from the video tutorial on your patreon says uncensored? Did I miss a link somewhere.

(1 edit)

We have a link in the description which will take you to our Patreon post where we explain how to uncensor the game. Follow this link and you will find a guide with a download link for the uncensor patch.

I bought the game in the bundle for the Winter Sale and the game only loads the title screen and then will say "Not Responding" and cannot play the game at all.

Hi, we tested the game on Windows and it's working properly. Do you get the same issue with Mannequin Academy? What operating system are you using?

Sorry for the late response, I am on Windows 10. I am updating some drivers and downloading a new Windows 10 update and will see of this resolves the issue. I will comment if I am still encountering the problem.

Hi back again with the same issue for Diamond Mirage, Mannequin Academy does work and runs fine, but still having the problem with Diamond Mirage where the game will start up and be on the title screen but I am unable to click 'Start' etc. and then the game will say 'Not Responding' at the top of the application. I am wondering if maybe the animation for Diamond Mirage on the bottom right of title screen is the issue.

Could you email us at aedianglair@gmail.com? It will be easier to resolve these issues there.

I also ran into a bug in Coming of Mage and I am stuck in Vanessa's room and cannot exit...I only have 2 save files and both are stuck in Vanessa's room and no way to exit out the door.

(1 edit)

It would be amazing if you could attach the save files located in this directory "Coming_of_Mage_0_939\www\save" to your email.

You'll see the www folder in the main game folder and after you open it you should see the save folder.

Thanks, I will go ahead and send an e-mail with these issues.

It's not easy! At least for me. I downloaded the game and then downloaded the uncensored link and it doesn't work. I can't extract anything. 

Hi. I saw your email and I will explain how to patch there.

I'm also making a visual guide that will explain the whole process and will be easier to follow.

Thank you!

Hi! I love your visual novels, the art and writing are amazing :) I was wondering...do you plan on making a otome in the future?

Hi Valencia! Thank you so much for your comment :) Yes, we are planning to release an otome game sometime next year!

Yay! That's awesome I can't wait to see it :) thank you for answering my question! 

It's been some time, but we're finally developing an erotic otome game😁 You can see our Kickstarter here https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/elf-in-chains

AHHHHH OH MY GOD IM SO EXCITED

Oh wow, it's not often that I get combination of erotic yet tasteful and so beautiful. The art is just stunning and the story - absorbing and well written, really makes one want to know what happens next, and find out more about the characters. Really cool yet hawt game ☺️ Looking forward to the continuation.

Thank you for your kind words :) We are working on the continuation right now. There's going to be a Friday content update showing more of the story.

This is one of the hottest games I've ever played. Like wow I cant wait for more. Your art style is gorgeous. I keep looking at Kilie and Veros together (͠≖ ͜ʖ͠≖)

Thank you so much, we're really happy that you enjoyed it!;) 

There will be more very soon. <3

The game seems to end so abruptly and with no resolution. Will there be a part two or any updates? Unless I am just missing something...

(1 edit)

Hi and thanks for playing! Of course, there will be much more coming soon:) This game is in development.

O_O it's saying Malware >_< does any one get that?is it false positive?

(2 edits)

The file is perfectly safe, don't worry. It's pretty common for antiviruses to wrongly flag something as malware if the file is an indie game or an indie visual novel. T_T

ty :3 ty for letting me know <3

Sure, have fun playing!<3

Okej! i know what i am buying, when i get my pay :3 

Yay! Happy to see you here :)!

omg bless you

<3 <3

is it really only an hour long? also how come there is nudity in this and your other game but not mannequin 

(2 edits)

No, the game is at least a couple of hours long already - there was a mistake in the info:)

Mannequin is not a +18 game, but we will be releasing plenty of projects that are NSFW (such as this one and Mage).

ah
