- Sounds of Her Love 2 - Coming June 20th! - 13 June 2025
"Leopards don't change their spots that easily... A tender, wholesome love story awaits." Sounds of Her Love 2 is finally here! We'll be releasing next week, on June 20th! Thank you all for joining us on our journey, not only over the last 2 years of SOHL 2's development, but over the last 8 since we first released Sounds of Her Love. When setting out on its development, I never imagined that the game would receive anywhere near the amount of love it had, let alone getting to the point where we'd be able to make a sequel. Sounds of Her Love 2 is a story about growth and overcoming challenges - the ones we decide to tackle ourselves and those which are forced upon us unexpectedly. I hope this has been translated well through Sounds of Her Love 2, and we will continue to work on projects with the talented people who've made it possible. Thank you all for the support. - ds-sans X / Twitter…

Sounds of Her Love 2 is coming soon! Our store page is now LIVE - all wishlists are appreciated! https://store.steampowered.com/app/3427740/Sounds_of_Her_Love_2/ We'll be working over the next few months to finalise the game ready for release. This'll be our final post in this devlog series, so thank you to all who have joined us along the way. Further updates on the release itself will be made available on our usual channels (*cough* social media). X / Twitter: https://x.com/dssansVN Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/dssansvn.bsky.social As the release is only a short while away, as you'd expect we have been working on adding the finishing touches to the game. It's been a pleasure working with everyone to get all these aspects complete and I'm glad we'll be able to share them all with you soon. One aspect I've really enjoyed working on is the 'extra' touches to the game. One of these w…

Oh, it looks like you startled her! (Yes, the opening animation is based on this scene.) Work has continued on Sounds of Her Love 2 - and so - as it has been a few months since our last devlog, we are here again with another round of updates and announcements to keep you all satiated until the game releases and you get to watch Ceri play the harp. Yes, she plays the harp! If it wasn't particularly obvious in the plot summary, cover image and opening animation, Ceri will be playing the harp in SOHL2. The above CG by Kimiyoto is already enough to captivate us, but we have more lovely things planned throughout the game as Ceri hones her skills for the graduation ceremony! This also includes new backgrounds by Kjkjmulo, as shown here inside Ceri's house. It is a nice feeling to be able to re-build this world using original backgrounds, imagining the events from the previous game in this set…
- Sounds of Her Love 2 - Devlog #4 - 19 May 2024
They're just having a bit of fun! Work on Sounds of Her Love 2 has continued! After all the fun of our anniversary, we've pushed forward to make more progress on the game in the last couple of months! So, of course, what better way to celebrate our continued motivation than by sharing new updates with everyone! It is always a pleasure stopping by, and the support really means a lot to us. Sounds of Her Love 2 is shaping up to be one of our most enjoyable titles yet, so I'm really pleased that this train shows no sign of slowing down. Thank you all! In terms of updates, things are now in full-swing adding in our voice cast to the game. In addition to Amber Barile playing the lovely Ceri, I am also pleased to announce the following talents who'll be joining the music club as our side cast! Leader Looi as Nonoka Ibaraki - the passionate oboist and leader of the music club! Shellah as Emma…
- Sounds of Her Love 2 - Devlog #3 - 9 March 2024
They're having a party and you're invited! Thank you all for supporting us over the last 7 years! That's a really long time to be honest. At this point, Ceri would be in her mid-twenties... But of course, time doesn't pass in the world of Sounds of Her Love, but it certainly does for us. What better way to celebrate than by showcasing what we've been doing with that precious time over the last few months of SOHL2 development? Big thanks to Kimiyoto for another anniversary illustration (and all the great work shown below)! One of the things we're looking to stress in SOHL2 is our focus on CGs. The original SOHL only contained a few snippets of Ceri spliced here and there throughout the game. Whilst that's cute and all, giving Ceri more opportunity to shine makes clicking through all those lines of text worth it. Kimiyoto has been doing a fantastic job in this regard and being able to tel…
- Sounds of Her Love 2 - Devlog #2 - 2 December 2023
Oh no... you scared her! We have been continuing work developing Sounds of Her Love 2! Thank you all for the warm support on our previous update post. It's really a pleasure reading through supportive comments and we're happy to hear how much the original SOHL has meant to you, from being some of your first VNs to inspiring others to develop VNs themselves, it really means a lot. It has been 3 months since our last update, so here are a few of the things we've been working on! Firstly, I am happy to announce that SOHL 2 is getting an animated intro. As it would've been a shame to save this until release, given how cute Ceri is, we decided it would be best to dual purpose it as a 'teaser' trailer as well it's inclusion in the final game. Huge thanks goes to 'Chloee_desu' for the animation and 'Red Robotix' for the music composition! In addition to the above, we've also been continuing wo…

It's Sounds of Her Love 2 update time! As promised in our announcement post, we are here to share some occasional progress with Sounds of Her Love 2's development. For those who missed it, we're working on a sequel to the game! - and to those who didn't, thank you so much for the warm reception to our announcement. We've heard your calls for a sequel many times over the years, but to still see so much love over 6 years on really means a lot and reading your comments and messages has given us an even greater lease to continue pushing with development. We announced last time that we are looking to release in 2024 and that is still the case! (Unlike some of our other projects, *sweat*). We're happy to report that development is going smoothly - we will look to create a new Steam page for SOHL2 closer to the time we start gearing up for release. Last time, we announced that we have been wor…
- Sounds of Her Love 2 in development! - 5 July 2023
So, it's finally time, huh? After six years of 'Sounds of Her Love', an epilogue, a prequel and a cameo, we have decided it's time to continue Ceri's story... again. We're happy to announce 'Sounds of Her Love 2' is now in development. Following-up on our short and sweet visual novel, Sounds of Her Love 2 continues the serenading of Ceri with a narrative focused on your newly orchestrated relationship. As spring comes to an end, and with graduation on the horizon, this love-filled story continues to bloom, compounded by new faces, new challenges and new feelings. For Sounds of Her Love 2, we've enlisted the help of Kimiyoto (Sprites/CGs) and Kjkjmulo (BGs) to design the artwork from the ground up. New original assets will add a level of consistency to Sounds of Her Love 2's art whilst still remaining faithful to the original game. This will be supported by a fully original soundtrack an…
- Future SOHL Updates + Cute Halloween Project! - 3 October 2020
Interested in knowing what our plans are for Sounds of Her Love? Well, don't fret! We've been busy since release brainstorming new ideas for the title including future updates or remastering. We've come a long way since 2017, so the time will eventually come to look back at Ceri's story and see where we can take it - even if that just comes down to polishing a few things up. Many of you have said you'd be willing to pay for the game, and as much as we'd like to make that possible, with the licencing around certain assets we're unable to do that. Even so, we'd still release any new update/expansion/remaster/sequel for free anyway! Even if it seems like a long way off, it's still something we're thinking about, as we know how many of you and how much you love the game. We have already been releasing SOHL web content on Patreon (for free, it was just the easiest place to upload them), whic…

- SOHL Achievements + Summer Fun! - 25 June 2020
So we finally caved to the pressure... Ever since Sounds of Her Love came out, you all have been asking for achievements. While I never really thought they were necessary, I think it's about time to breathe a new lease of life into the game and bring back some old and new Ceri fans to the WISJ (she probably misses you too). https://i.postimg.cc/YqGBPn9Y/Capture.png Now that's that, you should go back and give Ceri some love. In other news... it's summer! And that means, cute girls doing cute things discounted for 50% off! ICYMI: We released a commercial VN last year - original assets, full voice acting, cute girls - Ceri even shows up too!

- Our new visual novel out now! - Chemically Bonded - 8 December 2019
From what we've seen in your reviews, comments and feedback - many of you would've been willing to pay for Sounds of Her Love. While we couldn't do that due to copyright issues with some of the assets used in SOHL, the next best thing is to make a new game from scratch: double the girls, triple the playtime, and everything handcrafted with love... ...a game like that would certainly be nice, right? If you haven't been living under a rock for the past two years, we've already done that! Chemically Bonded is out now! A story following two estranged girls and your attempts to restore their friendship. Made with love, everything is fresh off the press and we're able to sell it to you for the cheap price of $9.99. The game contains: Multiple routes and endings - ~9 hrs gameplay. Interactive phone system for choices and dates. 5+ outfits and multiple poses for both girls. High quality artwork…
