Version 0.8.0 Major Update: A New Chapter Begins — Byakuren Hijiri Arrives!

Hello everyone!

A Schoolhouse in Gensokyo has been updated to Version 0.8.0!

This update brings a new main story chapter, expanded regional storylines, and more Upgrade Projects and teaching items. The schoolhouse’s story continues, with even more options for developing your students and managing the school!

A New Main Story Chapter Featuring Byakuren Hijiri

A new main story chapter is now available, and Byakuren Hijiri joins the game’s cast!

How will her arrival shape the schoolhouse’s story? We’ll leave the details for you to discover as you play!

We’ve also added new storylines and Influence Level missions in Misty Lake, the Eastern Suburbs of the Human Village, Scarlet Devil Mansion, and other areas. Alongside the new main story, be sure to revisit familiar places around Gensokyo and see what’s happening there.

4 New Upgrade Projects and More Teaching Options

Following the additions in the previous update, we’ve introduced 4 more Upgrade Projects, giving you more ways to develop the schoolhouse.

The new content also brings a wider selection of teaching items. With more items to combine and projects to choose from, there are new possibilities for planning your students’ development and meeting the schoolhouse’s needs. Try different combinations and discover the teaching and management strategies that work best for you!

Quality-of-Life Improvements and Updated Artwork

Alongside the new content, we’ve continued improving the everyday gameplay experience:

• Added several quality-of-life features, with a particular focus on job postings.
• Replaced some background illustrations and other art assets to improve the game’s presentation.
• Fixed various bugs.

The Full Release Is Coming on October 4!

We’re ready to announce what comes next: we’ll be skipping Version 0.9 and moving directly to the full release on October 4!

That’s the day of the Autumn Hakurei Jinja Reitaisai, and one day before World Teachers’ Day on October 5. For a game about teaching and running a schoolhouse, it feels like a fitting occasion to take this next step.

Thank you for playing, sharing your feedback, and supporting us throughout development. We’d love to hear your thoughts and suggestions on Version 0.8.0 as we work toward the full release.

Enjoy the new chapter, and join us for the full release on October 4!
