Will there be a similar project like sakura dungeon in the next time?
The answer is currently no. Sakura Dungeon was an incredible amount of work, thougth we really wanted to pull it off somehow. Everyone is a bit exhausted and we decided to make a few "normal" visual novels which dont push us beyond our limits every day.
That said, we still have a lot of exciting visual novels coming in the next time.
1. Sakura Shrine Girls. Its completed and we are currently preparing for steam greenlight.
2. Sakura Space. I dont want to give away too many details, but this one is pretty close to being completed and we are looking forward to share more details with you in the near future.
3. Another Sakura game with a SciFi setting. We will release a few more artworks for this one, thought I feel its still too early to give out too much information.
Since our writer is already super busy, we decided to hire a professional japanese writer for this project and translate it from japanese to english. Yup we go through that much work to develier more nice visual novels and keep quality high. It was nessecary since we couldnt find a responsible writer who was up to the quality standarts we are looking for.
4. Sakura Adventure. We made a lot of art for this one already. Sadly we have not really decided where it is going. We consider adding gameplay, but are not sure how much it would increase the workload. Also it is not decided if a japanese writer or our own writer will help us to finish the story. Its still being discussed what could be the best for Sakura Adventure.
So a few of you might be very disappointed to not find Sakura Fantasy 2 on this list.
Please let me say a few things about it. Sakura Fantasy was probably the visual novel we put most effort into and spend the longest time making if we look at visual novels without gameplay. Personally I thought it was a great story and did enjoy making it a lot. But the sad fact is this: It didnt sell.
Its well known that only a small part of the audience who did buy chapter 1 will also buy chapter 2, so the income we could make from chapter 2 would probably be even less.
If we have free time and enough spare money at some point to be able to effort to make a not well selling game, then Sakura Fantasy 2 could be considered, however in a competitive market, especially one like steam, making a sequel to something that was not financially successfull is super risky. We love making visual novels and like to stay in business so please understand that it currently might be not a wise decision to continue sakura fantasy.
That said, if you have questions regarding our other projects, please go ahead and ask what you like to know !
We will try to answer it as good as we can.
