Roses in The Flames Demo
A downloadable dragon game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
What would you do if you woke up tomorrow not knowing you will be stepping into another reality that very same day? What if that reality is inhabited by dragons?
You are the main character who had the mysterious fate of walking through a magical pond and only to discover after resurfacing, you find out its a world inhabited by Dragons. At first, everything seemed so strange after meeting the first dragon, and then the second. After seeing this world for yourself you realize it's not so bad to be living in Draconia. However, living with dragons comes with its own problems.
This game is a current work of progress, and the official demo version will be released.
Some screenshots also depict the upcoming demo, while some depict this version.

just out of curiosity, when might the game release on steam? even if it's just the demo.
Soon! Very soon :)
We anticipate hopefully within this month, and January would be the worst-case scenario.
Thank you for playing! If you have any further questions, please let me know :)
Please tell me I downloaded the wrong version somehow... The demo was so short? I couldn't even from a proper opinion on it.
You did not in fact, unless you downloaded the version from awhile ago and decided to run it again somehow, I don't have any logical explanation otherwise. But this is our most recently updated one. We do have another one in the works that is revised and will be 1000x times better than this current one. :) If you'd like to get daily updates, we do have our discord server you could join at https://discord.gg/rosesintheflames where we have giveaways, meetings, active chatrooms, and more!
I am sorry if at any form you were met with an unsatisfactory situation, we do hope to curb that and morph it into a happier one :) We care about our players and fans, and if you'd like we could speak on discord at cringledragons which is my tag.
I imagine the game's page isn't meant to load like this? If I scroll the background moves down but still leaves a large portion of the screen as a white void that leaves text unreadable unless highlighted, and also seems to be missing a video and preview images. (Though it also loads fine on mobile for me some reason) :o
Unrelated to the itch.io page bug, will we still able to play as a dragon instead of human? I remember reading that you could "be a dragon dating in a dragon's world" on the old version of the page a few weeks ago but it doesn't seem to appear anywhere now and I was really looking forward to that aspect.
Thank you for sharing this error with me, its peculiar. I haven't had anyone else report this issue. I'll definitely consult others to look at it.
As for the dragon one, you can be a dragon in the game still or a human its entirely up to you based on which endings you wish to do :)
Let me know if I didn't answer this quite good enough, and please let me know if you have any other questions! :D
So being a dragon or human changes entire possible endings for the game? Wasn't expecting that much of an effect! :o
I love the game! I have this tab bookmarked so that I can keep up on updates. (and if I had money, I would donate)
Aww, thank you! On behalf of the Roses team and I, we appreciate you being here.
If you wish, you could join our discord server for frequent updates about the game :)

What's the gender split like for the dateable dragons?
Male humans+Female Dragons Female humans+Male Dragons
Or just same gender human and same gender dragon. I hope this answers your question.
Oh, I meant more like how many dragons are female and how many are male lol.
Sorry, I must have misread that somehow.
We want to equally distribute the same number of dragons in either sex, so we have about 10 males and 10 females to interact with in major roles in total, but to date them it's 4 males and 5 females.
I said SLAY the dragon, not LAY the drago
*Laughs*
YESSSS!!!!!!! LET'S GOOOOO!!!!!!! As a dragon lover, I can safely say that this makes me super happy!
Can't wait for the full version!
Me too! Even I can't wait to see what I come up with for all of the endings!
Awesome! I'm super happy you enjoyed playing the game! :)
If you want, we have a discord server where you can be kept to date on all of the updates towards the game!

WHAT THE FLIP
I adore dragons, and I can happily call your game a personalized paradise for me
Thank you very much for your heartfelt comment! I appreciate hearing something about that by someone else.
If you'd like, we have a discord server surrounding the game. You could click here to join if you wish, it is very active :D https://discord.gg/rosesintheflames
Thank you for playing!
"And if you would prefer to be a dragon dating in a dragon's world, don't worry. We got you covered"
Oh thanks im so reliefed
:) Thanks for playing!
Yay!!
A very good game demo. I am a player whose native language is Chinese. I played the test version of the game using Google Translate. I want to know whether the official version of the game will have Chinese. This is very important for us Chinese players because the translation software will have some errors. I don't want such a good story to be misunderstood because of the wrong mechanical translation.（I'm sorry for my poor English. This review is also completed with the help of Google Translate. Please forgive me if there are some difficult to understand parts.）
I understood your review perfectly in fact! I do plan on having the official demo translated in multiple languages. However, the closest we do have is Japanese and the game will be translated in Japanese. Though, this isn't enough so I can find a chinese translator to help do our game and write it all down for us. Thank you for playing my game. If you want to join our discord server, its https://discord.gg/rosesintheflames
We also have a twitter page, and our official website here
I really enjoyed the demo and i literally cant wait. I have been checking every other day to see if their are updates and am exited for its release. I hope its this year. I hope that you have a great time making the game because I cant explain my excitement.
I am very pleased to hear you say this. If you want, you could leave a review for the game and tell everyone how much you had fun playing it if you want :D
Tomorrow, I'll be hosting live Q&A's for the first time on our discord server. You could participate tomorrow on Saturday at https://discord.gg/rosesintheflames
If your discord account doesn't have a profile picture, add a profile picture or else our security system will kick you repeatedly. Thanks for playing!

You better believe I am very excited for this, and I'm basically vibrating with excitement. I love dragons so much and have a deep connection to them, this game will truly speak to me on multiple levels. <3
Thank you so much for commenting! This comment means a lot, thank you very much for your support! ^_^
Yeah, this game is making me feel very strong spiritual feelings... since I am a part of the otherkin community so I have beliefs that I'm a dragon in spirit, like other therian/otherkin people, in the furry community or not.
So this game means a lot to me. I love seeing dragons that are so beautiful yet to expressive, so empathetic, and so full of personality and sentience, just as diverse as humans.
It would be a dream to become a dragon too in this game so I can truly complete the love and romance and make my heart soar with joy ~
I'm very happy to hear that you feel that way. I have a feeling you would love to play the next official demo which will be released in hopefully a month or so :)
Oh my god I am so excited. I need these dragons and I need to be a dragon NOW! ^.-.^
Keep up the great work, Cringle. I finished the current demo... it's really short. I hope the next demo will be much larger and have much more going on.
Thank you! I'm very happy someone enthusiastic as you are interested in our game! We work very hard on it my team and I. We will make the next demo a lot longer.
This game cant come out sooner, cant wait to play it in full. Im assuming its not going to be NSFW so im hoping to stream it when i play through it.
interesting can't wait to see where it goes
Thank you! It'll be quite the adventure :)
Disheartened I Don't See A Non-Binary/Trans Option, I Know How Hard That Can Be (Writing For 3 Different Character's That Are Literally The Same One!! Ughhhh..... Ok..) I Understand You're Decision From A Writer's Standpoint Though, Gonna Play This On My YouTube Channel, Drive Attention To It For My 0 Subscribers... (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyHAfqfXEZwBLDgNs02ejpg)
Haha!
Yeah, I'm not able to do a non/binary trans option because then it'll be assumed that the player is a male.
Since there is a female option, I like it that female players can get a chance too, but yeah, I couldn't do a trans-nonbinary option simply because it'll be too many differences to write.
Although, thanks for playing it on youtube :)
it's cool, though quick question, where is the .sh for linux?
it's the executable for linux.
gonna have to make 10 minute parts since i'm not verified enough to do that..
Did you find everything okay? :) Do you need any help with anything else?
I enjoyed the demo. I picked all of the available choices, and the lore is sure interesting. I look forward to play the full game :D
Thank you!
I'm very glad you've enjoyed it, how was it playing on mobile? Could you tell me how you did that?
I'm glad you loved it; in the next demo we will showcase all of our new variety of backgrounds with animated sprites. Thank you for playing! :D
Hi!
I'm the developer, I see you must've clicked on one of the backgrounds that were planted in the screen gallery. Our team has known about this problem, and it has been since resolved, however, since this is the older version of the demo, the error remains because it has the unfixed code still in it.
We thank you for playing our game, and we're looking forward to having you play our next official demo that is coming out next month!

I didnt find any game updates on the discord, youre talking about de website right?
I was speaking about the website(s) yes, but we have game updates on the discord every 2 weeks, but we do keep people posted. Did you check the announcements page on the server?
Sorry I misunderstood, I thought you were talking about new versions of the game that were only on discord 😅. Anyways looking forward to the game
That's ok! I understand, no, we'll have a new demo version posted on here and we're making a steam page very soon! :)
Thank you for playing!
I really enjoyed the demo and was wondering how close the game is to a possible release date?
Hello!
Thanks for enjoying and playing my demo! We will be releasing another final version of the games demo soon in July. Our sprites will be fully updated by the next demo with more scenes and characters added!
Our actual game release will be by the end of 2024 and sometime during 2025!
We appreciate you trying our game and please if you want to keep updated regularly, join our server at https://discord.gg/rosesintheflames
Error I found an error when you click on Gallery in the menu, an error crashes
Hi! Thanks for posting. :)
Yes, that's the only one people mentioned about, but I'm making an upcoming and new demo version and I'm releasing it this month along with a new steam page. There was grammar errors and an error that makes your color always set to purple. All have been fixed since then ^^
Kind regards,
Cringles
When the full game releases will our progress from the demo carry over?
No, because the files here won't remember the files "Over there" which would be on Steam. And the beginning scenes might be redone anyways.
We've edited since the 1.2 version of the demo. :) Good question by the way.
Out of curiosity, is there a Macintosh build/port planned?
Yes, there is :)
Thanks for replying!
Android build as in phone wise, correct?
I would say there is a strong chance we develop a phone app for the game. Nice question!
I will be more active on here, stay tuned!
