Following a period of intense development to upgrade Nina Aquila: Legal Eagle, Season One with the help of crowdfunds supplied by our community, we are happy to announce:
The v5 version of the game launches on November 24th, 2021, at noon CST, or 6pm UK time!
This newer version of the game will feature a wide range of improvements, which include...
Character busts for Anya Miller & Judge Tawny
Thanks to our community, we were able to commission additional bust artwork for the characters of Anya Miller (in 3 outfits) and Judge Tawny. These were supplied by a new artist, Sincryart, who came highly recommended by @Koahri1, the artist behind our Nina & Hawke bust images.

Linux & Steam Deck support
The game now supports Linux & Steam Deck, via a native Linux binary (not via Proton or similar abstraction layer). As well as opening up NALE to Linux users, we've also already had the game running on a Steam Deck early devkit and the performance is looking great.
Name Cards for dialogue
At the request of many fans, we've now added namecards to in-game dialogue. These appear similar to the example above, for all "major" characters. Each one will only appear once the player reaches a point in the game where Nina is aware of the character's name.
Nina's major OBJECTION pose is now animated!
As in the example above, when players perform a major OBJECTION in court, Nina's image will now be animated, courtesy of @KJOEE88 over on Twitter!
Significant performance enhancements & small fixes
NALE has been upgraded to use a much newer version of the nwjs framework, which means the game will perform significantly better on lower-spec machines, and should drop fewer frames on higher spec machines.
Also, thanks to our community, we were able to stamp out a bunch of smaller bugs & typos.
Get ready for NALES1 v5!
With all of these improvements, there's never been a better time to step into court in a world where all anime genres exist at once! Wishlist the game now, here:
