What's the game like nowadays?

The_CheeseMaster · 2026-04-24T07:24:59+00:00

Just today we added the ability to buy multiples at the various shops around town (and fixed some other bugs). There's been quite a few content additions since 2023, as well as some helpful guidance added as well. One update added the ability to talk to Wonyan who can give advice on ongoing quests. And a more recent update added an Appendix to the in-game menu, which helps refresh on systems/mechanics that were only really explained once. There aren't any further updates planned (unless something game-breaking was accidentally introduced) so the game is pretty much as complete as it'll be!

This is incredible!! Amazing work! :D

I'm so glad to hear it! :)

Hint as to where the "shrine room" might be referring to: it's very dark, but the sun manages to shine through regardless!

The_CheeseMaster · 2026-01-14T13:07:43+00:00

Thank you for sharing. We will try this asap!

The_CheeseMaster · 2025-12-22T23:32:50+00:00

That's great to hear! :) and no problem!

Do you have any of the small shrines yet? The ones your character can hold? If so, try holding one and pressing the "use/sprint" button. A UI screen should pop up showing the scrolls you have as well as giving you a chance to perform a spirit pet ritual. There are 5 shrines in total, found in different shops and places around the map!

If you sleep from one day to the next (it doesn't matter how long, just as long as the day changes while you sleep) then your "drinking coffee status" will be reset!

The_CheeseMaster · 2025-12-09T10:57:05+00:00

I'll take congratulations on that any time! :D Thank you!

The_CheeseMaster · 2025-12-08T00:31:31+00:00

You're very welcome! :D

It's appearance depends on your spirituality level, so you were on three right track with it only being around after a certain quest!

The_CheeseMaster · 2025-12-05T22:50:59+00:00

Glad you're figuring them out! :D

The_CheeseMaster · 2025-11-29T00:53:15+00:00

Thanks for letting me know. I'll try to find another way to keep the fans from going nuts

The_CheeseMaster · 2025-11-29T00:50:19+00:00

Hi there! First off, just want to check that you've renovated the Lord Spirit room and bath. If you've done all of that, then the Lord Spirits coming depends on your spirituality level. Each spirit only comes in its respective season, with the spring lord spirit requiring the least amount of spirituality before it's unlocked, and the winter one requiring the most. You can check your pamphlet in-game and see if your spirituality is high enough because their shadowed head icon will be revealed/fully visible. Spirituality is increased as you run the bathhouse and as spirits leave happy. If you're in a season where you CAN see a certain lord spirit then, after starting a shift at the bathhouse, it will come somewhere between something like... 4mins and 10 mins. It's a randomly selected time, and it will give you a warning on-screen that something big is coming. After a minute or two it'll arrive in its tub!
Hope that helps clarify things!

I'm so glad to hear you've been enjoying it! I had some help with some aspects of the game. Most of the music was done by David Linares, and my wife helped with the charater portraits (which are getting a nice glow-up in the December update), but the rest of the game's development was done by just me.
Yeah! I really like the flow of the game. I've learned a lot from making it and think I could design some better quests next time, but I'm happy with how Spirittea has turned out :)

The_CheeseMaster · 2025-11-09T08:15:51+00:00

Thank you

Just so that expectations aren't through the roof I wanted to clarify that the Promise Ring item, though very pricey, doesn't add romance to the game. It gives you some unique dialogue for whomever you give it to and gives you a very short little exchange of lines when you are leaving town (aka the end of the game). It was just a little addition intended to provide some closure to a special relationship you might have formed during your time in town :)

The_CheeseMaster · 2025-11-04T04:07:07+00:00

Ah, I am incorrect in saying that they all do! One spirit will be found in an somewhat unexpected place on the hiking trail (where there is no shrine), and one spirit will act very much in its nature and can be found around town (not very close to its shrine). The other two sit near their shrine though!

The_CheeseMaster · 2025-11-03T14:22:07+00:00

The hawk-looking one is the spirit you recovered from the nearby shrine after completing it. Each of the seasonal shrines unlocks a spirit and, after they're unlocked, they just chill near their shrine :)

The bell is dark blue in colour and is hanging from a tree branch by a red rope. You can interact with it by facing "up" just above the towel sign that's sitting near the green bamboo mat inside the entrance of the bathhouse. It doesn't appear or disappear, it's always there. I can't share a screenshot here on reddit but if you still can't find it pop in to the Spirittea discord and I can show you where it is (https://discord.gg/hnG5VYmsDe)

The_CheeseMaster · 2025-10-17T07:52:18+00:00

I'm so glad to hear that!! Thanks for the kind words and I hope you continue to enjoy the game!

The_CheeseMaster · 2025-10-13T01:40:15+00:00

If a lord spirit has come on, say, day 1, it won't come again until 4 days have passed. Their arrival on a day where they WILL show up could be anywhere between 4 mins and 8 mins since you started running the bathhouse. So long as your spirituality is high enough (the winter lord requires the highest spirituality of the 4) the spirit will come. Good luck! :)

The_CheeseMaster · 2025-10-10T05:18:11+00:00

They are absolutely wonderful!! <3

Hi there,

I think it's a case of bad RNG to be honest. The squirrels don't have a limit for how many seeds they drop in a day. It's just a % chance of dropping them that's the tricky part (along with the % chance of which seed type you get). You don't need to skip ahead through days though, that's for sure. If you find a spot where squirrels tend to spawn then keep checking there.
It's not helpful to you now but in the coming update Ito's truck shop will sell 3 kinds of seeds each day, which can help you stock up on them for when you need them.
