Harmony Girls Post Release Announcement
🕑 Added 2025-07-21 17:30:21 +0000 UTCI hope you all had fun playing the latest releases of Harmony Girls! I've got some pretty big news today regarding major changes coming in the future, so strap in.
For those of you who aren't aware, I put a lot of time into modifying the existing code of the game to support translations. Unfortunately, I don't have the budget to support full translation support, so I'll be translating the game using GPT to provide the best machine translations I can. I'll be releasing more translations as I make them over the coming weeks to ideally have a large number of major languages supported. In this process, I've had to modify nearly every file in the game and so I decided not to release the translations in the public version. Instead, they'll be released when v0.5.1 goes public.
Now for some big news, I've commissioned an artist to help overhaul to GUI in Harmony Girls and make it look as nice as possible. This will include everything from the main menu and dialogue box down to the cheat menu. I don't know how long this process will take and I don't want to get everyone's hopes up that it'll be out soon. We may see it slowly roll out piece by piece over the long term, but since this process has just started we'll just have to wait and see. I'll be posting updates about this in the developer updates that I put out on a weekly basis for supporters. The one thing I can say right now is some of the functionality of the game will change as a result of the GUI rework. Some GUI elements will likely be combined into a single screen and others may be accessed from different buttons or areas of the game. I still want everything to flow well and navigating the UI to be easy for the player, but I want it to look good at the same time.
I decided to pursue this now for multiple reasons, one of them being help with a final design for the card rework I've been working on. The translation has also demanded UI changes because a lot of the translated text results in larger words and more space in the UI than I originally designated. That, and the UI of Harmony Girls is just... ugly! It's finally time for a facelift to get the UI to match the quality of the rest of the game.
I've got a lot of work ahead of me getting all of these changes implemented in the game, but I hope everyone is excited to see what the final result looks like. That's all I have for you today! Thanks for your interest in Harmony Girls and I'll see you all next time!
