Last time, we chatted about the power of dialogues and how your choices can influence the quest, its outcome, and even the rewards. Today, we want to introduce you a bit more to the playable characters: the Dayal siblings. The siblings are more than just colorful characters on your screen - they're people with their own unique personalities. By understanding their temperaments, you'll be better equipped to make choices in the game and avoid potential surprises. Let's get to know them better!
Jai - The intelligent and rational one
As the oldest of the Dayal siblings, Jai has grown up to become a responsible individual. He is naturally intelligent and likes being rational. Sometimes Jai finds it difficult not to point out when people are wrong or use faulty reasoning. He feels pressured to take over the family business one day, which makes him feel weighed down by obligations he doesn't want to shoulder. He dreams of becoming rich and gaining the freedom to do whatever he wants to.
Devi - The supportive and observant one
Devi is the second oldest of the siblings, and sheโs very curious and empathetic. Sheโs much more interested and in tune with her and others' emotions than the other siblings. She loves helping others so much that she often forgets to take care of herself and be happy. Although Devi tries to avoid conflicts with other people, she still sometimes feels sheโs not enough to be likeable. She hopes to make her family and the entire community proud of her.
Lilly - The hot-tempered and brutally honest one
The second-youngest, the most daring and ambitious of her siblings, with a sole goal to become the strongest. She was still a child, when she got badly hurt and lost in a fight to defend her sibling, and from then on promised herself to never lose again. Lilly doesn't like showing off any weaknesses, and her short fuse often ends up in harsh comments or fights with others. While her siblings can appreciate her honesty, people who don't know her often take offence to her straight-forward nature and lack of social skills.
Eshan - The charming and manipulative one
Being the youngest of the siblings, he has always looked up to his siblings and hopes to be as smart, dedicated, and tough as them. He quickly realized, however, that his real strength lies in his charm and wits. Although his inexperience and naivetรฉ can sometimes be a hindrance to his goals, he has little trouble lying and manipulating to get what he wants. And, with his busy and talented family, he often feels like he is not as valuable and good enough as the others. He dreams of becoming famous and popular, someone respected and important among the townsfolk.
We hope this insight into their personalities and family dynamics has sparked your curiosity and deepened your connection with our game. Thank you all for your continuous support and enthusiasm. It really means the world to small studios like ours โค
Until next time, /Coridden Team โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
We have heard you. Those pigeons in the town square? They are so much fun to run to them and make them fly. A childhood pleasure for many. But what if we could make it bigger? Like a whole island of it. Well just speak to Granny and she will send you to Pigeon Island. Where our dreams will be made real
There is only one problem. Our island is kinda...empty.
But that is where you can come and help us. We are using a mix of magic and technology and turning each one of your follows on our TikTok into a pigeon. Yes, magic. Not adding them manually...no. That would be insane.
Cool Guy
With Pigeon Island a new NPC showed up in town as well. He is the Cool Guy. And he will say anything you tell him to say. Because he is just here for the cool vibes.
You can find them next to the notice board (You know the one that informs you of the berry thief)
The way it works is every few days we will post the new sentence on Tiktok and the most-liked comment on that post will be part of the game for a few days. And yes we have had some high-quality comments.... never mind
Conclusion
So if you want to try and break the game and our sanity by adding too many pigeons follow us on tiktokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@portalfantasyio. And look up the latest post about the cool guy to try and get them to say your sentence of choice.

It has been a month since the release of the Early Access version of our scum prisoner observation visual novel "Romp of Dump".
As of 2/20, the game has reached 13333 downloads, and I am surprised that more people have taken notice of the game than we had imagined!
Thank you so much, Observers, for punishing our scum prisoners! I am currently preparing an update to make your prison life more enjoyable...!
ใThe review article was published!ใ
"Altema", one of Japan's largest game app strategy sites, has published a review of "Romp of Dump"! Click here to read the review: https://altema.jp/rompofdump
The article is designed to convey the game content in an easy-to-understand manner for those who have not yet played the game. Please check out the article and spread the word!
ใNext update noticeใ
The next update is scheduled for Saturday, March 9, around 0:00 JST.
Please pray that I can make it this time as well...!
The main scenario the "Vamp of Dump Case" is lifted.
A new main scenario, the "Vamp of Dump Case โ ", and case documents available at the library event will be added. Vamp of Dump, a serial killer who is the nemesis of the main character, As. The spotlight is on its first case...
Unlike the prisoners' main scenario, "Confession of Crimes and Repentance โ ก", there is no game over in this episode, but it branches off into multiple (10 in first episode) "hypotheticals" depending on the choices. You can choose any of the options and each play is short, so you can read it quickly, or you can go around and collect the branches. This is a consideration-specific episode!
Depending on your "hypothesis", you may discover a surprising aspect of the real culprit behind the Dumpir Prison, the Vamp of Dump.
System modifications are planned!
The system area that was pointed out in the review will be modified to make the game more comfortable to play! The loading time when starting up the game will be greatly reduced to 1-2 seconds, and a progress bar will also be displayed.
The bug that caused a force close alert to appear when clicking during loading is also resolved. (In the current version, the program will start up normally if you wait without clicking.)
This work was developed with Unity and the visual novel tool "Utage" and was made possible by the efforts of the "Utage" developers.
(There are other nice things under the blur in the actual game! Will be introduced with the update.)
In addition, the rules for mini-games will be modified to be more similar to actual casino games.
In the mini-game "Blackjack", A (Ace) is now automatically treated as 11 points.
In the mini-game "Poker", when two players have the same hand, the ranking is determined by comparing numbers and suits.
