Hello, players. Erase will be exhibiting at BitSummit PUNCH, one of Japan's largest indie game festivals, under the "Denfami Special Recommendation Category"! This special recommendation category is a special project hosted by the Japanese game media "Denfaminicogamer," where indie game developers jointly exhibit their games. * Click here for the article about Denfaminicogamer's "Denfami Special Recommendation Category": https://news.denfaminicogamer.jp/kikakuthetower/2604222zAs introduced in the article above, Erase is a game that takes on the challenge of doing what we really want to do. We have packed it with elements that the developers love, such as "card games," "puzzle games," "adventure games," "TRPGs," and "mystery." Contrary to the atmosphere of the character illustrations, the game itself might be a bit heavy to digest. However, making the most of the freedom of indie games,…

- [Erase News Letter vol.17] Our Localization Process - 6 February 2026
Hello, players.This is my first time greeting you here at Erase. I am Sachazi(사차지), the official Korean Localization Manager. Starting with this post, I will be communicating with you frequently, so I look forward to your support!Today, I’d like to talk about our language support and the localization process for different countries.While I mainly handle Korean localization, I also support localization work for other languages. Currently, Erase supports Korean, English, Chinese (Simplified/Traditional), Japanese, and Spanish (Spain/Latin America).The two Spanish variations were recently added, and I think this is where I put in the most effort. I wish I could speak every language like a native, but due to realistic limitations, I borrowed the power of AI technology. We utilized language models like ChatGPT and Gemini, rather than simple machine translators.Of course, hiring professional…

- [Erase News Letter vol.15] Status Update and Notice of Discord Server Opening - 26 October 2025
Hello Players, We participated in the indie game exhibition "Kobe Game Labyrinth" held in Kobe, and visitors played the demo version at our booth.So far, it seems that it has always rained on the days of exhibitions. Nevertheless, we would like to thank everyone who stopped by and provided valuable feedback.Because the game's system is unconventional, conveying to first-time players what "Erase" is like remains a significant challenge. Based on feedback received at the exhibition, we have promptly revised the card cost images.In Erase, the cost to play a card is accumulated by clearing the blocks located in the center of the screen. (For example, the red cost accumulates when red blocks are cleared in chains.) Until now, costs were represented only by color; by also using the images of each block (fire = red, water = blue, earth = yellow, wind = green) for the cost marks, we have enhanc…
