Thank you for all the recent support! There's been an uptick in players from China recently, and multiple requests for a properly localised version to be made.
And so....
Simplified Chinese is now available!
As an English solo dev, I've had to resort to machine translation for this edition - I know it's not the best and will probably have a bunch of errors as well as parts of my story which are incorrectly interpreted. However, I wanted to get across something more accessible then using Google Lens or hard to use modding tools for the growing audience in China, so I hope this new build suffices!
[UPDATE]
A new version has just been pushed live as well - this update fixes some leftover English that was missed in the translation, as well as translates the video portions of the game! I went back and edited each of the 3 main video sections so that they also include localized text. Some additional images were also translated that were passed over on initial release. I will keep trying my best to improve the localisation for you all!
[UPDATE 2]
A small bugfix patch has gone live that introduces a fix to various bugs related to variables and save/loading. It is recommended to stick to one language build of the game, and if swapping, completely uninstall and reinstall the game to make sure no errors are encountered.
The DLC is included in the base game?!
For all the players on the Chinese build, you will have access to the DLC immediately when you install the game - no need to install the DLC separately. Originally, the reasoning behind the DLC being separate and not just a major update was so that players can decide if they want to experience the new story and aesthetic, or stick to the base game - as well as distinguish the two as separate stories.
This makes oath and the oath: there is a you that remains DLC two separate packages, as far as Steam is concerned - meaning each update I have to do parity between the two and port things over the different builds, which is pretty difficult! Doing this for the translation would've been extremely slow and made this take a lot, lot longer to get out - for that reason, the DLC is now just included into the base package for all players in China. Installing the DLC separately is still possible, but you won't see any changes when you do so - it'll all be the same!!
Thank you!!
To all the players who have picked up the game, thank you again and I hope you've enjoyed my work! To all my new players, especially any reading this post from China, please enjoy the game and I hope this translation helps you better understand my story and world I've made.
Thank you so much for your support! As always, please use the discussion tab if you need to report anything vital, I look over all posts when I can <3
