| Win 2 Epistory keys! | 2025-10-24 | Epistory - Typing Chronicles is joining the Games Under 5 Hours event (October 13-27), and it's so much more than just typing.You're a muse helping a writer create her story, riding a magical three-tailed fox through an origami world that literally unfolds as you explore. Type to gallop through forests. Type to unleash elemental magic. Type to battle the insect corruption. But between the words, you're discovering secrets, solving environmental puzzles, and experiencing a story about creativity and inspiration. The typing? It becomes second nature. What stays with you is the gorgeous papercraft world, the atmospheric soundtrack, and that magi |

| 日本人! We need your help! | 2022-09-22 | Hi フォックスライダー, Once again we are working on a Japanese version of our coming title Outshine. Just like Epistory and Nanotale, Outshine will work with companion words which are romanized versions of the words you have to type in Japanese. Thanks to you we learned a bit more about Japanese localization while developing our typing game and now we understand that there are different ways to romanize it. There is the Hepburn romanization that generally follows English phonology with Romance vowels. But also the Nihon-shiki romanization originally invented for Japanese and his modified variant the Kunrei-shiki. So our question is: What romanization |

| Epistory Plush: Revised Design | 2022-01-06 | Hey Fox Riders, Happy New Year! Tadaaaaa! Here's the revised design of the plush following your feedback. We made the eyes cuter while conserving their geometrical aspect since we wanted to keep the essence of the origami fox. What do you think? The next step would be to have the first plush prototype. Then you'll be able to make it yours! Thank you for the feedback! -VirginRedemption PS: little reminder about our third typing game Outshine. Don't hesitate to wishlist it if some of you are missing the arcade vibes from the iconic typing of the dead. |

| New Typing Game Coming | 2021-11-22 | Hi Fox Riders, During the development of our last typing adventure, Nanotale, some players asked us for for a fast-paced typing mode. Of course, we released the arena mode to please the frenetic typists among you. But, we also had the idea of a new typing game, more arcade oriented where your only goal is to destroy your enemies in a fast-paced typing game. So, here comes Outshine where each world has its own flow, enemies and bosses. Master your different special abilities and find the best tactic to defeat your enemies and escape. Beat the game then change the game modifiers to create a brand new custom experience. Ready to type your way up |
