Aoiro Rinne status update

Since there seems to be some renewed interest in the game, here’s a status update.

Q. Is the engine hacked?
A. Not entirely. Don’t expect it to be hacked for a while unless a miracle happens. Meaning no partial patches at the rate things are going. DFG is busy with real life stuff and really doesn’t have the time to worry about a stupid porn game.

Q. What about editing?
A. Again, my sole editor (Fyuria) is generally busy with real life things, so editing is pretty slow. If anyone is interested in editing, come to #vnsociety (on Rizon) and talk with me (Cafe).

Q. You were making good progress on the translation, what happened?
A. Monster Hunter 3: Ultimate happened, along with Sayonara wo Oshiete, which I’m also working on with vvav (who is translating SubaHibi and Sumaga for reference). Translation will resume starting this week unless I get lazy.

Q. Total progress?
A. Roughly 43% (535 KB of 1.24 MB) translated, 16/135 scripts edited, image editing/translations are basically done.

Hiring one editor for Hatsusaku

Hatsusaku needs an editor who is an expert at character voicing.

I need someone who has a flexible command of the English language that can polish and refine the text to bring out the unique personalities of each character more.

With the proper characters, if you think you are good at changing lines from:

“Did you hear about how all of those people were beaten up?”

to

“Did’ya hear about how all them idiots got fucked up?”

…then you’re qualified, if you do it properly at the right times with the right characters. I will explain to you how each character should sound and their personalities.

Prologue/Common Route Complete

Prologue/Common Route is complete. We will release a patch once everything has been edited and hacker has made the necessary preparations.

Next will be Chapters 6 and 7 which consist of the Ran route (AKA Sakura bad end #1). This one shouldn’t take long.  After this will be Aya’s route.

Progress: 7098/39843 17.8%.  Prologue/Common Route Complete.
