Little Briar Rose News

New Package & Spanish Localization!



Hi everyone,
how 's it going? Big news today!


New Package on Sale!


What could this DLC be? In short: our Art efforts!
LBR Original Sountrack & LBR Artbook.

Only a few know that Little Briar Rose traveled around the country expos followed by an original artbook drawn by our artist. The time of expos is now over, and we want to open the chance to get the artbook to the players.
You'll find 50 pages of concepts, stories and in-depth info about the characters, the lore, and our personal experience.


Moreover, you'll find all the original music composed by our friends Humble Student and Francesco Percassi, who believed in this project as much as we did!
We still owe them big time for this. :)
We hope you'll like it!


Spanish Language - Beta

We are happy to inform you that our first community-translated language is out on beta now!
The Spanish language has been added to the game thanks to the help of:
- Alexandra Letelier González (Sacred)
- Luis M. Robayo (Luincho)
They translated an insane amount of lines: we are speechless!

You can access the new language through the language option, choosing the beta Spanish translation. We already tested the game, but if any issue were to occur, don't hesitate to reach us on Steam or, even better, on our Discord Channel:

We Want More Languages

Do you want to help with new language translations? Do you want to jump in and bring your language into the game?
You can!
You'll find all the info in this topic:

Special Sales

Finally, to promote the DLC and the new language, Little Briar Rose will be on sale for a week. Get your chance now!


That's all for now.
Have a nice summer, princes!

#LOVEINDIES WEEK UPDATE



Hi there!

Little Briar Rose's team is joining the #loveindies Week and we hope you're hyped to join too.
We are preparing some cool news about Little Briar Rose, which we'll reveal during this week, so stay tuned!

The #loveindies Week aims to celebrate the indie community in its entirety.
This celebration wishes to shorten the distance between players and devs, encouraging you to express yourself and leave a review.

You might not know how much a simple review or rating can mean to an indie development team. They make a huge difference to us! We can learn and grow this way.
So, if you get the chance, please leave a review about Little Briar Rose!

Thank you for supporting indie games, we wouldn’t be able to do what we love without you!


First announcement:

As a gift to the indie community and to help the game to spread around, we've decided to definitively change the price from 7.99$ to 4.99$. Little Briar Rose was our first project and we would love to see it played more and more!

We can't contain our excitement!

SUMMER UPDATE + CALL FOR TRANSLATORS



Hi everyone,
What's up? Are you all enjoying the summer so far?

The team is glad to offer you a special 50% for the Steam Summer Sales.

The sales come with a couple of updates:

Call for Translators

Little Briar Rose is a text-rich game. Quite text-rich actually! Maybe not the most text-rich game around, but we had quite some fun coming up with cool dialogues and funny jokes, painting a very unique dialogues style.
This, however, cut our legs short when we dreamed to open the game to more than English and Italian (our mother tongue).

Still, some of you reached out to us asking if they could translate the game for fun, so we've told ourselves: why don't we continue living the dream a bit before waking up?

Taking into consideration all this, we've worked on adapting the game: Little Briar Rose is now open to be translated from the community!

But what should you do in practice?
Go to this link: http://translate.elfgamesworks.com/collaboration/project?id=300139
Select which language you want to translate it to (If your language is not listed, please report to us)
Create an account for free to start translating!

We have to warn you, though, princes: Our lovey-dovey game counts around 17k words. How cute, right?

As proof of your unyielding valor, any brave soul that will collaborate to this challenge will be automatically added to the game credits.
Thank you!
