Here’s what we fixed in v1.0.1. Honestly, a lot of these came from you.
We’re so grateful to the Wanderers taking time out of their runs to report bugs and tell us what’s breaking. It makes the game better for everyone.
New patch notes coming soon. Come and explore the World of Raoah!

Metroidvania Guru’s review of Fallen Tear is up. Always a good feeling when someone takes the time to really dig into what you built.
And yes, MGV is actually in the game. Have you found the cameo?

I need a Hira!
I'm holding out for a Hira till the end of the game!
He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be fresh from the fight

TODAY’S THE DAY!
Fallen Tear: The Ascension is out!
It’s been years in the making, & I’m so excited to finally explore Raoah & to have had the honor of voicing Nesta & some monsters 🌌🗡️🩷
Thanks & congrats to @FallenTearGame @JustRandyGreer @HuntBran & everyone involved!

ALT the developers’ art of Nesta, along with a description that says: “Nesta is a courageous and loyal dancer who combines playful confidence and sharp wit. She lightens difficult situations and is devoted to her friends, standing firm when it matters. With her mischievous humor, she teasingly strengthens her friendships”

Today feels extra special for me and my team. We’re just one day away from the full release of our debut game, Fallen Tear: The Ascension, and I wanted to share what this moment means to me.
As an art studio, we lost most of our clients because of changes in the economy. It’s been a difficult journey, and I’m grateful we had already started putting our time and passion into our own game IP.
We wanted to make something familiar that we love, built around what we feel confident doing: 2D art and traditional, frame-by-frame animation. Something fun that could also offer its own unique experience within the Metroidvania genre. And looking at what our team has created, I’m proud to say I believe we’ve done that.
We wanted to create a world people could take their time with. Somewhere you could get lost in the lore, get to know its characters, and discover the secrets we’ve hidden along the way. As a developer, there’s something really special about imagining someone finding a small detail our team put so much thought into.
I grew up in the ’80s, and some of my favorite gaming memories came from spending so much time with just a few games. We played what we had, explored every corner, and stayed in those worlds long enough for them to become part of our lives.
Now, there are so many amazing games to play, and our backlogs keep growing. Sometimes, even enjoying a game can start to feel like something we need to finish so we can move on to the next one. I miss being able to slow down and just enjoy the adventure.
That’s the feeling I hoped we could bring into Fallen Tear. A reason to take your time, follow your curiosity, and enjoy the little discoveries without feeling like you need to rush to the ending.
This game is our love letter to the gaming community, from a team that grew up loving games and dreamed of making one of our own. I hope that tomorrow, we can share something special with you. Something you’ll enjoy playing and remember long after.
To our Kickstarter backers, Early Access players, and everyone in our community: thank you for continuing to support us and believing in what we’re making. Getting here has meant so much to our team, and you’ve been a huge part of that journey.
Tomorrow, our debut game takes its next step into the world. I hope it leaves a lasting impression on you. 🙂

Two days left. The patch notes for 1.0 ended up way longer than we expected, which says a lot about how much changed since Early Access.
Everything you can expect in the full release is up on our Steam page now. See you on September 23, 2026 at 9PM (GMT+8).

Three days. At this point the World of Raoah is basically out of our hands and waiting on yours.
Every region, every boss, every bond. It has all been sitting here for a while now just waiting for someone to walk through it.
