Ren'Py 8.4.1 web build
Pale Carnations
Pale Carnations is playing on this page at Chapter 4 Update 4. It is a chapter based project, which means the version label tells you exactly how much story exists rather than hiding behind a decimal.
Plays on this page. We host the build, so there is nothing to install and nowhere to go. Checked on 2026-08-11.

Chapters instead of decimals
Most projects in this genre version themselves as 0.7.5 or 0.15c, numbers that tell you nothing about how much game is there.
A label reading Chapter 4 Update 4 is more useful. Four chapters exist, and the fourth has had four rounds of additions. You know what you are starting.
It also sets expectations honestly. This is not finished, and the labelling does not pretend otherwise.
What it costs to start
A measured 96 MB, the second heaviest build we host. Four chapters of rendered scenes is the reason, and about a third of the total is the shared engine that every Ren'Py web game carries.
Nothing downloads until you press play. On wifi the wait is well under a minute, on mobile data it is a real consideration.
Afterwards it is cached, so returning to continue a run is quick.
Saves across chapter updates
Chapter based projects add content to the end rather than rewriting what came before, which usually means an old save still works when a new update lands. Usually is not always.
Export a save at the end of each chapter through the engine menu and the question stops mattering. The file lives on your device and no browser cleanup can reach it.
Why we serve one build and name it
Search for any game in this genre and you will find a dozen sites offering it, each one at a different version, most of them not saying which.
We serve one build and we print its label on the page. If it says Chapter 4 Update 4, that is what loads when you press play. No guessing whether the page you landed on is a year out of date.
That is a small thing that turns out to matter a lot, because the alternative is playing forty minutes before realising you are on an old build and none of the content you came for exists in it yet.
Pale Carnations, answered
Which version of Pale Carnations plays here?
Chapter 4 Update 4. The build label is printed on this page because a version you cannot identify is not much use.
Do I need to install anything?
No. It runs in this page. Your browser fetches the build the way it fetches any web page.
How much does it load?
A measured 96 MB on the first launch, about a third of which is the shared engine. Cached afterwards.
Is the game complete?
No. Four chapters exist and the project is ongoing. The chapter based version label is there so you know how much story is currently in it.
