BOKURA: planet – Thank You Regarding the Launch & Upcoming Update Plans
Hello everyone, this is Tokoronyori.
First of all, thank you so much for playing BOKURA: planet. It’s hard to believe it’s already been a week since launch, and we’ve been overwhelmed by the response on Steam, social media, and across various communities. I’m truly delighted that this project has found its way into your hands.
Based on your feedback, I’m currently considering the following updates:
1. Additional Ending for BOKURA: planet
It was an incredible feeling to see so many of you dive into BOKURA: planet faster than even BOKURA’s launch momentum and share your thoughts on the story. I’ve been touched by analyses and theories I never even imagined, and as the creator, it’s a daily joy to see this work resonate with you. In response, I want to craft a new ending that lets you ponder the characters’ futures—just as we did after BOKURA. While the plot is still in broad-strokes planning, I’m aiming to implement it in-game sometime between May and June.
2. Connection-Issue Countermeasures
We’ve seen reports—especially in Simplified Chinese reviews and community threads—of lag and occasional crashes due to server connection hiccups. I’ll be running validation tests and server diagnostics to pinpoint what we can improve, then roll those fixes into an upcoming update.
3. Puzzle-Difficulty Adjustments
Some of you pointed out that a few puzzles feel overly cryptic. I’ll be reviewing and rebalancing their overall difficulty to ensure a smoother experience.
4. Other Bugs & Feedback Handling
Beyond the items above, I’m combing through every piece of feedback you’ve posted. If you encounter any bugs while playing, please report them in this thread:

I read every report and will patch issues as they come up.

About BOKURA: planet
This project grew out of ideas I had during the planning of BOKURA, but with a twist: whereas the original focused on “the different landscapes each player sees,” BOKURA: planet explores “what each player is thinking in their heart.”
You and your partner must cooperate toward your own hidden goals, creating the paradox of feeling lonely even while standing side by side.
In moments where thorough communication and mutual understanding are crucial, tensions may arise—but that very tension, and the process of working through it together, completes the experience.
After you finish playing, I hope you’ll ask yourselves: What changed between the two of you? What stayed the same? And above all, what lies beyond confronting that sense of loneliness? It’s in those questions—and your conversations afterward—that BOKURA: planet truly comes to life.
Thank you again for your support, and please look forward to what’s next!
