I launched a twitter page where I'll post updates on the novel. It is mostly there to fetch attention of people overseas.

Some of you may have noticed that I included a Japanese title in the subject. Well, I've gotten to translating the game in Japanese, and I'm laying down the framework for future, more professional translations!



A version with these translations will be released soon! I am not a native Japanese speaker, so some feedback on the translations would be much appreciated!

Thanks for checking it out! Follow my page for further updates on development, and to get a sneak peek at version 6.4.7, which is expected to be released at the end of this year!



v6.4.7 will mark the protagonist's arrival in Toronto, where the story will take a major shift. From characters, to music, it'll be a new and refreshing experience! It's still in development, so keep your ears peeled!

Zinnia, the protagonist of the novel, has just received an overhaul of her sprite! Damn, she's so cute that I want to crawl into a ball and cry. Her new sprite will be visible from the late portions of Montreal's chapters and onwards.

On the topic of development, I've also overhauled the settings menu, with seperate screens and a lot more stuff! It'll be included in v6.47, which is expected to be available by the end of this year.

(We expect to launch it in late 2022, or maybe early 2023, coinciding with the release of v6.47.)

v6.47 is now released (finally!)


Get it here: https://umineko-chan.itch.io/lets-go

- The prologue has been re-arranged, and will place the player immediately in the story, rather than a slow buildup. You can still play the old prologue after you finish the demo.

- The game's English title is now known as "Ikimashou! - Let's go on an adventure!", rather than "Let's go!", which will still serve as a moniker. On the other hand, the Japanese title is known as いきましょう!~冒険の旅に出かけよう~ (Ikimashou! ~Boken no tabi ni dekakeyou!~) This is to improve SEO.

- Minori & Vincent redelegated as side characters, due to their lack of voice acting and role in the story.

- BG gallery has been expanded

- OP movie has been refined

- Squished many pesky bugs

- Updated renpy version to 7.6.1


The demo is essentially a beta test for the upcoming v.7.0.5 version, which is expected to be released alongside/after the game's Kickstarter project here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ik ... =discovery
