(4) Imperial Grace by @synstoria.bsky.social . Otome game with a really neat resource management/political strategy twist. Very attractive love interests (and other characters who aren't love interests but should be). Fantastic demo! #FallinLoveFestival store.steampowered.com/app/1652580/...

Update on the lore book and other merch, I finally received everything today. There were so much problems with the printing then the delivery, I was super stressed and forgot to also tell you here. 🙈 I'm very sorry about the delay, I will do my best to package and ship everything ASAP.

Imperial Grace @synstoria.bsky.social · 11/06/2026

Thanks for that, I really appreciate !

Imperial Grace @synstoria.bsky.social · 10/06/2026

On the other hands, I read in the posts here that every engine (so I am assuming Unity/Godot are?) did used IA in their development at some time, which would mean practically all games in the platform would need to check the AI mark if the engine is enough, it wouldn't really make sense🤔

100

Imperial Grace @synstoria.bsky.social · 10/06/2026

Additionally, I am wondering what it means legally for us, devs using the engine. As someone who has been careful to avoid AI with a 10 foot poll, I wonder if it changes things in the way I have to disclosed it. For example, every store asks a question about it now, and I'm not sure what I must do..

Imperial Grace @synstoria.bsky.social · 10/06/2026

Well, I am welcoming the transparency, a little disappointed it wasn't disclosed earlier and by the usage itself.

Imperial Grace @synstoria.bsky.social · 28/05/2026

Honestly if they don't back down it will be so crushing for us and so many dev, we worked so hard the past years to gather our wishlist, with the serenity that some day we would be there and it would make a little difference and now they just want to take it away...

Hello, I forgot to announce it here, but I have decided to extend the shop opening until the 4th of May, we need to finish one piece of art, plus I realize now that opening a shop only at the end of the month was maybe not the most clever idea x) Thank you for your support <3

Imperial Grace @synstoria.bsky.social · 19/04/2026

Our expressions are more on the realistic side, which means it’s quite subtle especially on small pictures. I initially wanted to put them all, but for MC who has like 50+ combination it was unrealistic so I ended up cherry picking my favorite and the most “visual” of them for each of chara! 😊

0103

Imperial Grace @synstoria.bsky.social · 13/04/2026

Fun fact, I collection stickers IRL, the first thing I did when I received the sheet was to stick some in my little book 🥰 Honestly it’s really a unique feeling to see the world I created, the characters I imagined like that. ☺️

051

Imperial Grace @synstoria.bsky.social · 12/04/2026

Here is the design of Theodore’s bookmark, he has a more romantic expression on one of the side like the others, but I had to include his signature disdain 😂 This design is part of the bookmark set currently available in our Ko-fi shop <3

051

Imperial Grace @synstoria.bsky.social · 11/04/2026

Given the whole royalty setting it was important for me to show family tree, that’s why I decided to do it for each major characters as part of their introduction! Some are more… complex than others. 😅 Our lore book is currently available on our Ko-fi shop!

Imperial Grace @synstoria.bsky.social · 10/04/2026

I think my favorite part of the lore book are the double page for country. I commissionned those "postcard" specifically for it! I think matchai kat the artist really did an incredible work representing the vibe and biome of each countries! The lore book is currently available in our Ko-fi shop <3

Imperial Grace @synstoria.bsky.social · 09/04/2026

Here is the design of Alexander’s bookmark, I wanted a cute blushy expression and a more happy/dreamy one, I think it fits his vibe well! 🥰 This design is part of the bookmark set currently available in our Ko-fi shop ko-fi.com/synstoria/shop <3
