Jimmy, We Are Go for Launch!

Bought it from Steam, about half an hour into it. It's already a huge improvement over A Very Long Rope! The game's influences are pretty clear, but I can tell you put some thought into how all the little pieces fit together. And the scene where Mr. Beaver gives you a tour of his house was a very Earthbound moment.

Will keep going and see how things turn out, either way I'd so far gladly put it in the ballpark with paid RPG Maker champions Helen's Mysterious Castle and Rakuen

Blog 35: A new RPG Maker RPG (Japanese) to introduce & Seraphic Blue-related Video

Hat World looks pretty neat! I might try the Chinese version to practice the language (since I definitely need a refresher...)

On the note of Japanese RPG Maker games, I've been playing a couple of neat ones that have just been translated into English--Helen's Mysterious Castle (a really fantastic short game about exploration and battling, also adorable) and Capella's Promise (which was translated by vgperson who also did Ib, etc.) I think you'd dig Capella's Promise in particular, it's a big (20+ hours!) game w/ lots of unusual mechanics (synthesizing classes w/ a plot-relevant item, enemies all drop randomly generated loot, lots of flexibility in learning skills...) There are a lot of promising RPG Maker games made in English, but looking at some of the crop that's been brought over recently from Japan it's refreshing that so many of them put real thought into their inner workings rather than blindly emulating SNES classics (keeping in mind some of those projects do that REALLY WELL.)

Either way, thanks for translating all 50+ hours of Seraphic Blue and bringing more cool projects like Hat World to my attention I guess! Makes me want to go learn Japanese, even if the language is tough as hell for an English speaker

V1.0 uploaded

So is this the complete game? Or a more complete demo?

Will probably play this either way because new game by the maker of The Longing Ribbon oh my god

SSP Trailer!

SO EXCITED.

Iron Maiden isn't really my thing either but jeez, when the ending kicked in...Volrath is pretty much right about Star Stealing Prince being a parade of striking images.

RSD Video

Well you got the style down! It's a world away from the modern-society stylings of the Persona games (feels a lot closer to the sci fi entires of SMT, actually) but the atmosphere is definitely distinctive. Liked the flickering lights in the elevator sequences a lot.

I did feel a little uncomfortable with the use of the Dark Hour in this game, though. So much of what happened in Persona 3 was tied into its mythical structure/evocation of the Fool's Journey/themes of death and sacrifice that I'm worried that using those elements in a different game without the accompanying structure might drastically weaken the effect.

What I've seen of this so far is intriguing, though, so I guess I'll wait and see what you'll do with it? Anyway, looks promising.

I'm Scared of Girls Final Version Released

Got it! I'll try again.

EDIT: Okay, NOW it works. Think it might have been a problem putting it into a folder on my end.

Just cut the first thread. Excited!

I'm Scared of Girls Final Version Released

Ran into a bug! Walked into the first red gem in the starting area (I think) and received "Map 153/4 (forgot which) cannot be opened."

Otherwise, like the atmosphere a lot! Even though I only got like a minute in.

Still missing an image--Ep23, I think? Could someone else confirm this?
May I know where you get the part about Ep23? As in, at which point does this appear?

Oh well. This happens when I delete certain files in order to prevent viewing spoilers. I'll have to be more careful.


You get it right after the opening quote, after the title appears and disappears. I'd check for the exact number but that would require watching the sequence again; I have to go to bed pretty soon so I can't help too much here, at the moment!

Maybe tomorrow I'll check to make sure, if I have time. Might want to do a check through to make sure there's no more missing files, though.

When I tried to start a new game, an error message popped up saying "Cannot open file Ep43_Hill View. Not sure if I'm missing something or if there's a legitimate error in the game at the present.

Otherwise, great job translating! Am super psyched for this!

EDIT: On second note the guy above me seems to be saying the same thing. Yeah, think there's a problem
