Check the Leaderboards menu from the Main Menu by going to the Extras section. Your ranks for various different statistics (26 types!) will be shown! Note that ranks will feel a bit outdated and low in total number for some time due to this feature being introduced late into release. We will make sure the next game has it all ready to go on launch!
We are aiming to eventually migrate data into a global database, allowing for you to compare your scores with players on other platforms.
🔥 Major Data Overhaul - Thanks to a series of major improvements regarding data infrastructure and architecture, future patches should be much smaller in size. The game's file size has also decreased by 5-10% (300+ MB).
Resolution of the game's loading screen has been improved on certain platforms.
Updated Shujinkou logo on the Title Screen.
Tatiana's minigame, Kotoba Kyuugi, has undergone extensive reworks regarding physics, collision logic, enemy AI, and game speed. The game should be more enjoyable to play and score points in.
Fix animation degradation in the backgrounds of Kendama Kombo.
Fix issue with background images not loading sometimes in certain circumstances while in the Kanban Menu.
Fix bug with Otogawa's Okkake no Osakenori waves, present during some runs and only on some platforms.
Fix bugged character in Town 2 at night.
We still have more cool news to share with you guys in the coming months. Also, the game successfully launched on two other platforms last week too, bringing us to a total of five platforms where Shujinkou is available. We're confident that Shujinkou is one of the best RPGs you can use to learn Japanese, or even to review or get a feel for the language, while still also being a unique game all on its own. Feel free to join our Discord community if you need assistance with gameplay, want to suggest features or provide constructive feedback, or want to meet and chat with other fans of Shujinkou!
