Latest Steam announcements

  • Hotfix - 15 July 2026

    Reverted the electron version as it was causing issues (e.g. not saving your progress).

  • Kanji Mega Expansion - 15 July 2026

    Almost 30000(!) more Kanji addedThanks to Jitenon's data store, Kanji RPG is able to add information of 29200 Kanji. Entries which did not overlap with the existing KANJIDIC2 will not have an English definition (but these are obscure characters anyway, for advanced learners/hobbyists). I (Looh) will be incrementally adding definitions to JIS Kanji over time. Since some levels have insane numbers of Kanji in them, a loading screen has been implemented. The Kanji Stamp Book (aka the dictionary) has been highly optimized and should take less time to load and search.Level AdjustmentsThe Kanji from Black Hole and Milky Way have been moved into Milky Way (漢検準1級 merged in 1 level instead of 2 levels), and the content of Void moved into Black Hole (relocated 漢検1級). Void now contains Kanji belonging to JIS Plane 3/4. A new level called "Null" has been added containing the other 20000 or so Kanji…

  • The Bug Squasher and Vocab Update 🐛 - 27 April 2026

    Bug Fixes * Fixed a bug where fighting the boss a second time resulted in a softlock due to the way item drops were handled * Fixed a bug where getting a status effect from an enemy created a softlock * Fixed a bug that softlocked the game if you spam clicked the options in multiple choice questions which would also make the player bald 🤨 * Vocabulary in the wrong bank are now in the correct levels * Enemy now actually shows up when doing vocabulary * Enabled "Flee" button from battles Content * New enemies * New backgrounds * MORE fish - including 2 rare fish inspired by the artists (0.005% chance!) * Grade 3's vocabulary is finished! Every lesson from Grade 1-3 has tons of vocabulary to study from - nearly 3000 words! * Added more uncommon Kanji (later levels) Vocab Explorer * Browse vocabulary found in each lesson! * PRINT!

  • Grades 4-6 and MORE are HERE! - 5 May 2025

    Introducing Kat! Kat (Mcartiie) is our new scene artist, and she has been helping create new backgrounds for the individual levels. You'll see some of her work in Grade 4, Levels 1 and 2 (the Sunken Library). She is an extremely talented digital artist and I am so excited to have her on board! Please follow her on X and BlueSky :) Game Updates * Grades 4, 5, 6, Middle School Kanji, and Jinmeiyou Kanji, and MORE are all accessible! Kanji Count has gone from 400 to ~5800! :) NOTE: Some bosses in Grades 4-6 are NOT implemented, but see note below about Boss substitution. https://i.imgur.com/knfsUOK.png * Settings Menu Overhaul: The settings menu has been fully redesigned! You will find an SRS tab and a Graphics tab which currently are *not* functional but will be later. https://i.imgur.com/GxDT0zv.png * Stamp Book Overhaul: The dictionary / stampbook layout has been completely redesigned!…

  • Grade 4 Preview - 23 April 2025

    Hi everyone! Thanks for your patience. Unfortunately right after the last update is when I got diagnosed with POTS, hence the lack of updates 😔 That said: I am working on this! Here's what's included in this update: * Grade 3 is FINISHED (minus vocab). There is a final boss now! * Grade 4 is now partially available up to the 1st mini-boss. * Added more vocabulary to grades 2/3 (still in progress). * Fishing mini game in preliminary stages! See the shop!

  • Update Notes for 2/25/24 - 25 February 2024

    Removed softlock when dying in a lesson Updated message box appearance and function so there are less overlapping boxes Added an export/import save option in Settings (see top-left cog wheel in game) https://i.imgur.com/fusYLjR.png

  • Grades 2 / 3 Preliminary Release - 24 February 2024

    Hello everyone, Looh here with an update (finally!). In this update you'll find Grades 2 and 3 are available. Most of Grade 2 and all of Grade 3 do not have vocabulary options at this time. You'll see a lock icon on the "Vocab" button in lessons only on lessons that don't have any vocabulary to study. I'm being a bit picky about which words I pick and choose from, and it created such an unnecessary mental block that kept me from designing levels and such. So, I decided to just release an update with the Kanji only! Some bugs have been fixed, but as always, since this game is still in early access, there will still be bugs. Please join the Kanji RPG discord and follow my Kanji RPG twitter for updates and to discuss any bugs!

  • Launch & Day 1 Hotfix - 25 October 2022

    Thanks everyone who bought the game day 1! I'm grateful for people who pointed out some bugs right away, and they have been fixed: * Dying in the HIragana/Katakana mode is no longer a softlock (woops!) * Fixed an issue relating to spam clicking buttons
