May 19: Drake Birthday Event!


[h3]Observers, it's time for the Scum Prisoner's Birthday event![/h3]
Drake's birthday event is happening on Thursday, 5/19 from 0:00 to 23:59!

Try to beat him in a mini-game and choose "Happy Birthday!" in the penalty game!
The rules of the Dump are to celebrate with a penalty game!



This snapshot was taken in "Photo Mode", which animates in Live2D, implemented in the Early Access version.

Purchasing the collection item "Disposable Camera" in the "SHOP" will unlock Drake's photo mode.
Purchasing the "Photogenic Frame" item will also add a decorative frame for Drake's birthday!

↓Please share your screenshots taken in photo mode or at birthday events with the community!

Your posting will help motivate our developers!
(Please do not post anything that will spoil the story.)


Present the new item "Birthday Cupcake" to Drake and you will see a special conversation and his liking will be greatly increased.
If you raise the liking of the scum prisoner to 100, a friendship event will also occur where you can get a collection item as a proof of friendship. Why not take this opportunity to deepen your friendship with Drake?

Your and the prisoner's birthdays are determined by the time set on your device, not by the local time in Japan.
If you miss an event this year, you will be able to see the same event again next year on the same date with the same content.

Thank you for the 17,000 downloads & contest awards!

[h3]I was able to surpass 17,000 downloads on the recent 2024/4/23![/h3]

Thank you very much for those of you who played the previous version of "Primula" during the update collaboration event!
Thanks to your support, the trial version of "Primula" has reached a total of 20,000 downloads.

I will continue to update "Romp of Dump" with the goal that it will be enjoyed by the same number of observers!

Drake's birthday event will also be held on May 19.
I hope you will spend Golden Week and the rest of the year with our scrappy prisoners.

After completing the free "Primula" demo version, you will be able to see the keywords in Extra mode.
Enter the keywords in the "Romp of Dump" and you will receive a collaboration item related to "Primula".



When you present a collaboration item to a scum prisoner, you will be able to watch a limited episode.
The collaboration item will not be lost even if you use it, and you can present it as many times as you like. Enjoy the reactions of all the scum prisoners!

The English version of Primula was released at the same time as the collaborative event was implemented.
We hope that all observers and people from overseas will enjoy it.


【New penalty games have also been added!】

Penalty game for everyone, including As: "Where are you from?" has been added.
It will be released when you play a lot of mini-games, so try to ask the roots of the scum prisoners!


【5/19:A one-day Drake birthday event will occur!】
May 19 is the birthday of Drake, the dealer known as "Little Draco".

I am implementing a special event that will allow you to celebrate his birthday!
It will occur for one day only, from 5/19 0:00 to 23:59, so please log in on that day as well!




There are some other small changes in the demo scene at the first startup.
