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. [previewyoutube=g7wMzz67zrQ;full][/previewyoutube] Last time, we announced that we have been working with Kimiyoto, (Sprites/CGs) and Kjkjmulo (BGs) and ebi-hime (Co-Developer / Co-Writer) for the project in addition to SOHL2 being supported by full voice acting and a fully original OST. We're happy to announce we've been working with Red Robotix for the game's soundtrack alongside a preview above! We've had many reviews praising the soundtrack on the original game (despite it being royalty free music), but we understand the importance of having the right selection of music really defines a game's atmosphere. We hope to deliver something stellar and will be sharing more music tracks as they progress! We'll be making further announcements about the staff helping to deliver SOHL2 in our next update as we reveal more parts of the game! Nevertheless, to go alongside our cast of support delivering the game is a new cast of characters within it...
Sounds of Her Love 2 follows the music club's attempts to perform at the school's graduation ceremony... and here they are! We're in the progress of creating full bios for these characters, alongside selecting their VAs, so you can get to know them better soon. As Sounds of Her Love 2 is Ceri's story, these characters will of course not be romanceable, but we hope you'll give them love nonetheless as they contribute to the story in their own ways. Once again, Kimiyoto has done fantastic work delivering our art and I can't thank them enough!
(This one's a WIP, because you know, game dev.) Finally, our mission to deliver upon the original game is ever continuing. Not only are we working away at delivering new and original backgrounds, music and art for the game but new and exciting features too. There's a lot more we're keeping under wraps so you can enjoy the upcoming release and fall in love with Ceri all over again. Thank you all so much again for the support once again!
