- Sequel Announced! In FULL 3D! - 11 July 2025
Hello everyone! Sigyaad here, oh man it's been a little under 3 years since I last posted any updates of this game. But I'm proud to announce that a sequel to I Am Sakuya is in the works and will release very shortly on September! Wishlist it here: It aims to improve on the original IAS 1 in every way, while still having the same spirit as the original! For example, in the original IAS 1, the timestop was a limited use ability in the form of a single item, however in this game, you can freely stop and start time as you please! Provided you have enough meter! You can gain meter by of course, defeating enemies! That's all for now, of course, more will be revealed in the coming days and weeks. Wishlist it and stay tuned for more updates! PS: You can also join the discord channel and follow me on twitter! Discord: https://discord.gg/tR2W26x9YA Twitter: https://x.com/sigyaad
- VR Version is OUT NOW!! - 17 May 2023
Phew! That took a while. The VR version took longer than I'd like to finish, and then my plan to grant it for free to owners of the Desktop version of IAS took even longer than I had anticipated, but after a while I finally was able to get it done AND grant it to owners of the desktop version for free!! Also buying the VR version grants you the desktop version for free!! So yeah, the VR version is finally out! It features 3D models for all of the weapons, and of course, the game is fully playable in VR now! I tested this VR version on the Quest 2, however you may have to rebind some controls if you're using a different headset or controllers. Have fun!!
- VR Version coming soon! - 30 March 2023
Hey guys, Sigyaad here again with another update to I Am Sakuya. As mentioned way back during this game's release, I planned to make a VR version of I Am Sakuya, and I'm happy to say that now it's finally ready to release in a few weeks! After extensive play testing, I can confirm the game looks AMAZING in VR and should run with any SteamVR compatible headset (I tested it on the quest 2 via the virtual desktop quest app). The VR version features all new 3D models for all of the weapons! And don't worry, the vr version is FREE to all owners of the base game, all existing and future owners of I Am Sakuya will be awarded the vr version absolutely free! And those who buy the VR version will own the non-vr version absolutely free as well! You can wishlist the storepage of the VR version HERE: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2375160/I_Am_Sakuya_VR_Touhou_FPS_Game/
- Funky Mode Added! - 28 December 2022
Hello guys, Sigyaad here once again with probably the final update for the Reimu DLC! This update's main feature is the addition of a completely new and fun game mode called Funky Mode! Funky mode grants the old version of the Gouhei (Your Melee weapon) and grants you flight! It creates a truly unique experience to the game, of course, it is kinda broken, so I highly recommend ONLY playing on funky mode when you have beaten the main game! Additionally, some parts of the game have been tweaked, they are as follows: Map 1,2 and 3 have been slightly more optimized A certain secret item was added to maps 1,2,3 and 5 The gates have now been optimized so Reimu cannot squeeze through them, Reimu's hitbox is now returned to it's normal value Grenade launcher now fires even faster That's about it for now, more games will come future, including a VR version of I Am Sakuya + DLC, another FPS game,…

I just pushed an update that makes a slew of balance and bug fixing changes to the Reimu DLC! The changes are as follows: Gameplay changes: The infamous Gouhei (Melee weapon) has been reworked. It's now a long range, high damage melee weapon that restores your HP on hits. The grenade launcher's explosion radius has been slightly increased, it's fire rate is now faster too Yuugi can't be thrusted by the Gouhei Increased Reimu's hitbox (She can no longer squeeze through the gates) MAP 1, 2 and 3 have been optimised to perform better The final boss kills you in 2 hits instead of one Map Changes: MAP 1 : Balanced most of the enemy encounters near the start and the cave bit since there were a lot of enemies and wi…

- Small hotfix update - 11 October 2022
Hey guys, normally I would save all of the QOL and bug fixes for a major update but these one were too big to let go until. Especially the voxel one, So I just released a hotfix patch that fixes the following: Cirno doll has a proper pickup notification on hard Cirno doll's pickup is now much smaller Cirno Doll now does much more damage on hard Reduced knives count on Hard Fixed a bug where remilia didn't do as much damage on lunatic Fixed a bug where the candles would turn into voxels for 1 frame Removed the shotgun in the hub world (this was redundant anyways since the shotgun is already in the waterfall in the first level Assigned p90 to the first weapon slot on lunatic Assigned cirno doll to the 5th weapon slot Unfortunately, this might break your save data, so you'll have to start over or revert back to the previous version before this hotfix, which can be accessed via going to the…
- Hard and Lunatic Mode, New Weapons And Hub World Added! - 11 October 2022
Hello everyone, Sigyaad here with yet another major update to I Am Sakuya! This updates adds the following: Two new unlockable difficulties! Hard and Lunatic! Two new weapons! The Cirno doll and a secret weapon for Lunatic mode! Cute little hub world to relax in! Fairies now have a small chance of spawning the Cirno Doll weapon! See for yourself how powerful it is! As you probably guessed, the difficulties are unlockable, meaning you have to beat the game on Normal to unlock hard mode (the middle door) and you have to beat the game on Hard to unlock Lunatic (the far right door)! Hard and Lunatic mode completely remix the game! Enemies are faster and have deadlier attacks, bosses have more HP, new attacks and do more damage! But don't worry, YOU are much deadlier too! You'll see what I mean! I truly do think it's best to go into these difficulties blind and see the changes for yourself!…
- FIVE NEW LEVELS AND EXTRA BOSS ADDED! - 26 September 2022
Hello everyone! I'm so happy I can finally announce that one of the major updates I promised to the game, extra levels, is OUT NOW! You can access the new episodes from picking new game in the main menu, or simply by beating level 10! Thanks again to Mittens for providing these gorgeous maps! This update features the following: FIVE BEAUTIFUL new levels! An extra boss! Extended story! New ending artwork! Two awesome new metal cover songs! Additionally, some bugs, features and balancing fixes have been addressed: Added a notification on how to use switches Added key icons to the HUD when you pick a key up Fixed a bug where the shotgun could infinitely alt-fire if you stopped time and stood still Rumia now deals fixed 33 damage instead of random damage, like every other enemy MAP 10's boss's attacks no longer instantly kills. MAP 2 now drops the shotgun near the entrance. Of course, this…
- Gamma Update + New content sneak peak! - 18 September 2022
Hello everyone! Sigyaad here again with some more gameplay updates to I Am Sakuya! The changes are as follows: Bosses now show their full death animation and some dialogue when you defeat them Dialogue has been added in levels to make the game a more richer experience! The default gamma has been increase to make the game look a bit more prettier (you can still lower this to the default in the settings though) Fix Map 9's missing and misaligned textures Moved the enemy spawn points on map 9 to the edge of the platform Added a invisible backpack and a health restore to the start of boss fights that refill all of your ammo, instead of a stockpile of guns. Patchouli is a lot harder and can no longer be perma stun locked by the knives (I hope) You are now 100% invulnerable during timestop, though the main change of this feature is that now you get to see a cool face sprite from Sakuya when y…
- Revamped Levels Update! - 16 September 2022
Hello everyone! Sigyaad here again, I'm proud to release this update that revamps a lot of the levels! To summarise, it adds switches with proper level exits and entire new exit sections of maps! They look damn beautiful to boot! Thanks again to mittens for providing these beautiful sections! (Don't worry, I'm sure Remilia has some nice shades so she can enjoy the view during the day.) Additionally, all of the missing and misaligned textures have been fixed! (I hope!) Stay tuned tomorrow for more gameplay patches and then shortly after I will be hard at work on creating more content for you guys, including new levels and new weapons!
- New Map + Balance Updates! - 14 September 2022
Hello everyone!I have listened to your feedback and I'm pushing out the first of many updates to make the game a much better experience. This new update adds a new map and makes several gameplay and balance changes! To start off, there's a new map! It replaces stage 2 entirely with a beautiful, brand new cave level, thanks so much for Mittens for working with me to make this! Additionally, Map 4 has been tweaked a bit to feel a lot more better! I have also made a bunch of balance changes listed below The player now gets 2 frames of invincibility upon being hit In stage 1, enemies have their back to you, meaning they won't attack you unless you're ready Meiling will not attack you unless you attack her first, like a good gate keeper! Switching and selecting weapons is now much faster The crosshair should now be on by default In addition, there are a few hot fixes! Added names to maps Add…
