CRYMELIGHT Sakuzyo: The Composer Behind FURYU's Roguelike Action Game
Sakuzyo composed CRYMELIGHT's 30-track score. Here's what official sources confirm about the soundtrack, gameplay, release status, and editions.
CRYMELIGHT Sakuzyo is the search pairing that follows FURYU's new roguelike action game across every official page it appears on — and that pairing is earned, because the composer is named in the credits on Steam, the Japanese official site, and the publisher's regional site. Most action games bury their soundtrack in a press release; here the score ships as a 30-track album inside the Digital Deluxe Edition. Below is a source-checked breakdown of the CRYMELIGHT Sakuzyo collaboration, plus the gameplay systems, release status, and edition contents around it, with every time-sensitive detail dated to the snapshot it came from.
CRYMELIGHT Sakuzyo Credits: Who Is Building the Game
The staff block on the official CRYMELIGHT site lists exactly three named creators: Sakuzyo as composer, Naoki Hisaya as plot and story supervisor, and YOGISYA on character design. The CRYMELIGHT Steam page repeats the same lineup inside its About This Game section, where the game is described in one line as featuring plot and story supervision by Naoki Hisaya, music by Sakuzyo, and character design by YOGISYA.
That is the whole of the confirmed CRYMELIGHT Sakuzyo credit — a composer role on both the PC and console versions. The material collected for this article does not include a track-by-track breakdown, liner notes, or interviews about the score, so treat any detailed claims about influences or recording sessions elsewhere with caution until FURYU publishes them.
| Role | Name | Confirmed on |
|---|---|---|
| Composer | Sakuzyo | Steam page, official site |
| Plot / story supervisor | Naoki Hisaya | Steam page, official site |
| Character design | YOGISYA | Steam page, official site |
| Developer | FURYU CORPORATION, Winning Entertainment Group Inc. | Steam page |
| Publisher | FURYU CORPORATION | Steam page |
| Regional publisher | Clouded Leopard Entertainment Inc. (licensed) | Clouded Leopard site |
The developer/publisher split is worth noting for import buyers: Clouded Leopard Entertainment's own CRYMELIGHT page carries the line "Licensed to and published by Clouded Leopard Entertainment Inc.," which is why that site quotes prices in Hong Kong dollars, New Taiwan dollars, and Korean won.
What the CRYMELIGHT Sakuzyo Soundtrack Includes
The Steam listing for the Digital Deluxe Edition spells out the audio package in unusual detail. The Complete Soundtrack is described as a 30-track digital album containing the CRYMELIGHT theme song plus all background music used in the game — so the Sakuzyo score is being sold as a standalone listen, not just in-game audio.
The Digital Deluxe Edition bundles that album with three other extras:
- A 6-item DLC set — weapons "Aquamarine Emotions" and "E.V.E," an "Afternoon Tea" item set, and the accessories "Cheshire's Sin," "Mad's Sin," and "March's Sin."
- A digital artbook, "Partygoers' Memoirs" — 80 pages covering character outfits, early designs, stage materials, promotional illustrations, and previously unrevealed characters.
- A Special Voice Drama — three tracks ("A Whisper that can Melt Candy," "Afternoon Tea Time," and "Love") performed in Japanese only; the third track contains story spoilers.
On the physical side, the Switch 2 and PS5 "Tea Party Box" includes a special soundtrack, and Clouded Leopard's page notes that the 2-disc Special Album CD is also included with the Deluxe Edition as the "Digital Special Album." Both publishers caution that designs, content, and specifications may change without notice, and that bonus content may be sold or distributed separately later.
How the Game Plays Around the Music
CRYMELIGHT is a single-player roguelike action game set in Wonderland, a prison for dead souls. Alice, an amnesiac girl named by the White Rabbit, teams up with Mary to enter a death game where only those who defeat the Queen earn freedom. The cast — Alice (Sayaka Senbongi), Mary (Hitomi Sekine), Cheshire (Yukina Shuto), Mad (Nao Ojika), March (Yurina Amami), and the White Rabbit (Yu Sasahara) — is fully voiced in Japanese.
The systems that shape a run, per both official sites:
- Card picks: clearing a stage lets you choose one of three skill cards. You can combine up to five, and you lose the whole hand if you fall.
- Poker System: five skill cards form poker-style hands, and stronger combinations produce stronger effects.
- Wonder Dimension: killing an enemy spreads an indigo dimension across the field. As it expands, your abilities grow stronger and the action speeds up; your skill choices determine how fast it grows.
- Repentance System: Alice absorbs the sins of souls she defeats, and their "tears of penitence" become power-up items.
- Powering Up: materials from repentance upgrade weapons and accessories, so some progress survives a failed run.
- Tea Parties: conversations with the other girls change each time you rewind time.
- Mode Select: swap between a close-up side view and a wide overhead camera, and toggle the information UI.
The escalation built into Wonder Dimension — the field widening as the pace climbs — is the clearest structural reason the soundtrack carries so much weight in this design. FURYU sells the score separately because the game leans on a continuous, momentum-driven musical bed; that is a reasonable read of the material, though the publishers have not described the implementation in those terms.
Release Status: Consoles, Steam, and a Dated Snapshot
This is where dates matter. As of the 2026-11-07 capture of the Clouded Leopard Entertainment CRYMELIGHT page, the listed release date for Nintendo Switch 2 and PlayStation 5 was November 5, 2026 (JST), with a 20–30 hour play time and a single-player focus. The FURYU official site, captured the same day, listed the same date and added Steam (PC) to the platform list.
The Steam store page told a different story on 2026-11-07: the release date field read "Coming soon," the purchase area read "This item is not yet available," and the review summary read "No user reviews." A Steam news item added November 5, 2026 at 12:00 a.m. (JST) is titled "[Important] CRYMELIGHT Steam® Release Notice and Apology," opening with an apology to everyone waiting on the Steam version and promising an update.
| Platform | Listing at the 2026-11-07 snapshot | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Nintendo Switch 2 | Release date November 5, 2026 (JST) | FURYU official site; Clouded Leopard Entertainment |
| PlayStation 5 | Release date November 5, 2026 (JST) | FURYU official site; Clouded Leopard Entertainment |
| Steam (PC) | "Coming soon"; "No user reviews"; demo download available | Steam store page |
In short: console listings show a November 5, 2026 (JST) launch, while the PC version carried an unresolved status and a public apology as of the snapshot. Readers searching for CRYMELIGHT Sakuzyo release news should check the Steam page directly rather than rely on the console date, since the two are not in sync in the captured material. A playable demo was downloadable from Steam at that time, and Steam Deck compatibility was rated "Playable."
Editions, Prices, and PC Requirements
Clouded Leopard's page lists MSRP in three Asian currencies for Switch 2 and PS5. The figures below are that site's listing as captured on 2026-11-07; Steam pricing was not included in the available material, so check the store page for the PC equivalent.
| Edition | HKD | NTD | KRW |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tea Party Box (package) | 468 | 1,980 | 88,900 |
| Standard (package) | 194 | 830 | 37,000 |
| Digital Deluxe | 280 | 1,190 | 53,300 |
| Standard (digital) | 156 | 660 | 29,600 |
Pre-order bonuses differed by storefront: Nintendo Store downloads included an accessory called "Red Pouch," while PlayStation Store downloads included a "Blue Ticket" accessory plus 48 hours of early access.
If you plan to play on PC, the Steam page's requirements (captured 2026-11-07) are unusually steep for a 2D roguelike:
| Minimum | Recommended | |
|---|---|---|
| OS | Windows 10 64-bit | Windows 10 / 11 64-bit |
| CPU | Core i7-6700 / Ryzen 5 1600 | Core i5-12500 / Ryzen 5 5500 |
| RAM | 16 GB | 16 GB |
| GPU | GeForce RTX 2060 6GB / Radeon RX 5600 | GeForce RTX 3060 6GB / Radeon RX 6600XT |
| DirectX | 11 | 12 |
| Storage | 10 GB | 10 GB |
Interface and subtitle support covers English, Japanese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean, with Japanese as the only full-audio language. The developers recommend a controller, and listed support covers Xbox, DualShock (USB only), and DualSense (USB only) pads.
