Hello everyone,
I’m mong, the producer of *Dreamless Girl*. Over the past several months, I’ve been entirely focused on development and have been pretty much silent—my apologies for disappearing like that. (Not that anyone probably noticed ╥﹏╥)
Since the game’s release, we’ve received a lot of reviews and feedback from players, and we’ve read them all carefully. Among these, the most common and most important concern was: for a visual novel, how could we release the game before the main story was even finished?!
The truth is, we’ve been secretly preparing the story updates all along. The release schedule was finalized after repeated discussions with our publisher, but unfortunately, the story ended at the most awkward point, which hurt the overall experience for many players.
This was indeed a miscalculation on our part, and we sincerely apologize for it.
But please rest assured! Over the past several months, I’ve been working non-stop on the story. The amount of new CGs and character art in this update is almost like remaking the game from scratch. Today, I’m resurfacing to share our detailed plans for what’s next!
Update Plans
Here’s how we’re planning future updates and addressing some of the concerns players may have:
【Clarification and Compensation for Split Sales】
Because the story was split during updates, the game experience felt disjointed. Selling future story updates as separate paid DLC would go against the concept of a buy-to-play game and would place unnecessary pressure on the loyal players who have supported us from the beginning.
Therefore, we’ve decided to integrate the content originally planned as DLC—the “Truth Arc” and “Choice Arc” (EP05~EP10), which cover the story through to its conclusion—directly into the base game. This ensures that anyone who has already purchased the game will have full access to the entire main story at no extra cost.
【Update Timeline and Localization Plans】
The “Truth Arc” update will be released first on September 30, and this update will only include the Simplified Chinese version.
Due to production cost limitations, localization of the subsequent arcs will be delayed. Following the “Truth Arc,” the content will initially support only Simplified Chinese, with Traditional Chinese, English, and Japanese versions to be added gradually in later updates.
Given our current limitations, we may not be able to update your language version of the story as quickly as we’d like. Thank you very much for your understanding and continued support as we work to improve.
