Devlog #4 – Main Story Translation Nears Completion!

Hello, this is Kate from sweet ampoule. Here’s the latest progress update on Dreaming Briar Rose 🌹

💠 Translation Progress

We’ve completed English translations for Urheil’s and Ikorl’s routes! This means the main story is now 75% done—only Zarnitza and Ksina remain.

Once all six routes are translated, we’ll release the Main Story Pack on itch.io as a paid bundle. At this pace, we’re optimistic it will be ready before the end of the year. Please look forward to it!

🌙 What Comes Next

After finishing the main story, we’ll move on to translating the After Stories (one for each character). When all are complete, they’ll be released together as an After Story Pack on itch.io.

Once both packs are finished, we plan to launch the Steam version, featuring full English–Japanese language switching. We’re also considering separate DLC releases for the After Stories—but the details are still undecided. We’ll keep you updated as translation progresses.

🏰 Upcoming Projects

Before Dreaming Briar Rose arrives on Steam, we’ll be releasing another title first: LOOP THE LOOP 1: The Mansion of Gluttony, a closed-circle mystery visual novel. A free demo will be uploaded to itch.io soon—be sure to try it when it’s out! We’ll announce again once the Coming Soon page goes live on Steam.

And one more thing—our newest psychological mystery, Rocking Chamber, now has a free demo available on itch.io. If you enjoy dark, story-driven experiences, please give it a try!
