Hey!

We just made an important update on the demo.
You will find bug fixes, visual improvements (in the UI and the fonts) and more importantly, you will find 2 new languages : French and Japanese. I translated the game in French since it’s my native language. msBean offered to translate in Japanese. THANKS!

Jonathan reached out to msBean to send the demo because we noticed the beta demo had already been played on the msBean twitch channel. They chatted a bit about Japanese food and stuff, and here we are! Translating in Japanese was a project we’ve had for a long time, but we delayed it many times. Thanks for the kick in the butt! If you’re curious, msBean has a Twitch https://www.twitch.tv/ms8ean and a Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/msBean

We believe Japanese people might be interested in The Hungry Fly because of the game concept itself and because we had some Japanese press coverage when we announced the game.

It’s very weird because we did not send anything to them, we did not write anything in Japanese. Some people found an obscure game announcement and thought it was worth translating the news. Often, to get coverage, the publisher (or the dev if you self-publish) has to contact the press to get coverage.

In the end, the only way to really know if Japanese people will like it or not is to make it available to them. We’ll see!

Anyway, the game looks badass in Japanese!
