Happy 2nd Anniversary✌️ It's been two years since the release of the Early Access version of 『Romp of Dump』! The main scenario is still in progress, and I must admit it's a bit heart-wrenching, but that means the main course of this story is still to come! Once my new work, “Severed Love,” is complete, I'll resume production on “Romp of Dump.” I plan to develop them as a series so you can enjoy them together, so I hope you'll continue to support me for a long time to come!🃏 https://store.steampowered.com/app/1951520/Romp_of_Dump/ 𝕏 New Account Launched! Starting January 1st, I have launched official 𝕏(Twitter) accounts for ‘Severed Love’ and ‘Romp of Dump’. My personal Twitter account's shadowban has finally reached the six-month mark, so honestly, it seems unlikely things will return to how they were before... But I'm trying to stay positive about being able to resume posting progre…

The scumbags' Christmas is coming around again this year🎄 Merry Christmas to all observers!

This penalty game can be viewed from 12/23 0:00 to 12/28 23:59. Your and the prisoner's birthdays are determined by the time set on your device, not by the local time in Japan.

【A limited-time Halloween event has been added!】 Observers, Happy Halloween! I've added a new penalty game called “Trick or Treat!” for all scum prisoners. Is it true that there's one prisoner in here who's scum but still gives out candy(item)...?🍬 I have implemented fixes for bugs, including security vulnerability countermeasures for the game engine “Unity” used in this title. This penalty game will be available for a limited time from October 25 at 0:00 to October 31 at 23:59. It's been a while since my last update, but I was finally able to complete the Halloween scenario I couldn't finish in time last year!

Observer, who's been taking a break from prison life for a while, might be able to see limited conversations through the l…

On June 16, I surpassed 3,0000 downloads and reached 65 reviews!

I am very pleased to hear from observers who enjoy the Simplified and Traditional Chinese versions! For that, I apologize for not being able to meet the expectations of those who have been waiting for the update. Since around June, there have been events that have interfered with our game publicity activities, and I have been very sick, both physically and mentally. (The detailed circumstances are described in the “Severed Love” announcement.) https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/3412110/view/512965256196128854 The situation is unstable, not knowing when it might improve, but thanks to your support, I are barely holding our ground.

The integration into the game was almost finished in January, but it was also very difficult to reflect the translations on the Steam store page, so much so that we had to stay up all night for three days to finish... Simplified and traditional Chinese versions of the following media have been added! Early Access P…
