🎭Taishō Romance Theater [Demo 2.0] is out!


Hi sweets!

We’re beyond excited to bring you this update of Demo 2.0, and it’s full of new things we can’t wait for you to see! Here’s what’s included:

  • A completed prologue
    Even without counting the overlapping word count in different branches, the new story content in this update is more than twice the length of Demo 1.0.
  • A ton of new art assets
    7 new background illustrations (not including variations), 12 brand-new CGs (also not including variations), a completely new opening animation, more facial expressions for characters, and updated or newly added NPC sprites and little comics.
  • A redesigned UI layout
    We’ve revamped the UI for the Prefs, About, and Help pages, along with many other subtle tweaks and design touches throughout the game.
  • A carefully crafted battle scene
    Although TRT is a visual novel, we’ve always wanted to bring you a more dynamic and varied experience, and this new battle scene is one such attempt! We’ve also added and polished a number of smaller animations throughout the daily story scenes.
  • A special gore content toggle
    Some of the new CGs in this update contain mild gore. To ensure everyone can enjoy the story at their own comfort level, we’ve added a toggle feature that allows you to choose how you’d like to view this content. 

⚠️ Note that due to code updates, old save files are likely incompatible. Please be careful when loading your previous saves!

Unfortunately, we haven’t been able to add English/Japanese translations for the new content in Demo 2.0 just yet, but we're working on it! We hope you’ll be able to enjoy the full story in your preferred language soon. For now, the first half of the game is still available in English and Japanese, along with all the updated visuals and features. If you're eager to continue with the new story content, you might need to use a translator for the time being — thank you so much for your patience and support!

Do join our Discord or contact us through social media, as we’d love to hear your thoughts on this update, whether it’s about the story, the visuals, or the new features. Your feedback means a lot to us and helps us keep making TRT better. Thank you for playing, and we hope you enjoy everything we’ve prepared this time! 💗

(Also, I must apologise for not posting a dev log for May. As I mentioned on our social media accounts, Norika has already written a Chinese version, but I simply haven’t had the time or energy to translate and post it properly. We’ll make it up to you in June’s dev log!)

All the best,

SweetSome
