A Personal Message from the Fallen Tear Team
about 1 month ago – Thu, Sep 10, 2026 at 10:34:23 AM

Hello, Wanderers,

To our Kickstarter backers, everyone who supported us during Early Access, and every player patiently waiting to begin their journey through Raoah, thank you, from the bottom of our hearts.

Today, we need to share an important update with you.

During the final optimization and polishing of Fallen Tear: The Ascension, we encountered several issues that require more time and attention. Because of this, we have made the difficult decision to move our full release from September 16 to September 23, 2026.

We are truly sorry to announce this delay so close to release. We understand that many of you have been waiting for this day, and we never take your patience or excitement for granted.

Fallen Tear is content-complete, but we do not believe the game is currently at the level of polish that you deserve. Releasing on time would mean asking you to accept an experience that we know can still be improved. That would not be fair to you, especially after all the trust and support you have given us throughout Kickstarter and Early Access.

This additional week will allow our team to focus on the remaining optimization issues, fix important problems, and perform further testing so we can deliver the game in the best possible condition.

Fallen Tear is our debut game. Building it has been one of the most challenging and meaningful journeys of our lives. Every hand-drawn frame, every boss, every corner of Raoah came from a small team putting years of care into it. This is a game made by people who deeply love games, built through human creativity, collaboration, and countless personal sacrifices.

The road has not always been easy, but we are incredibly proud that we made it this far. More than anything, we hope that when you finally experience Fallen Tear: The Ascension, you will feel the heart and passion behind it.

Our team will continue working tirelessly throughout this final week. No game launches perfectly, we know that, but we want to put something in your hands that we can stand behind, and that respects the time and trust you've given us.

Thank you for understanding. Thank you for believing in Fallen Tear: The Ascension. And thank you for walking this journey with us.

We will see you in Raoah on September 23, 2026.

With all our gratitude,
Winter Crew Team
CMD Studios
