I’m out

Hi guys, long time no see.

Some might know me under another name. There’s nothing much left for me to do at mirror moon, so I’m announcing my retirement. The last two years I haven’t really been active, on the account of a full-time job combined with part-time study.

Five years ago, around this day, mirror moon was founded with the original intent to translate Tsukihime. We have gone on and completed other projects, most notable of all being Fate/stay night. I’m surprised it got this far, really.

Thanks guys, it’s been fun.

I’ll be around if you know where to find me.

Review: Edelweiss Eiden Fantasia & Kira Kira Curtain Call

So, yeah. I just finished playing Edelweiss Eiden Fantasia and Kira Kira Curtain Call.
Both games were freaking awesome, and I have to write something about it!! I love you, Overdrive!!!!!!

First, Edelweiss…

Started with Rin route. So freaking hilarious. I mean, your dick turns into a talking dick. It’s hard for this story not to be funny.
(TL: Glare)

Rin becomes friends with your talking penis, she even goes to make some clothes for it. Heck, she even pats it!
(TL: Yeah, I think it looks good on you. What do you think?)

You even get to play baseball AGAINST people like this.
(TL: Why do I bother? He talks incomprehensibly anyway)

I won’t spoil too much, but this route had me laughing A LOT!!!

Now, for Sakura route… This one was more of a moe route. Sakura turned into such a moe character!!
Girl with armpit fetish. How can you not love her?
(TL: I like armpits more)

And of course, the songs are awesome. I love the new UR@N Ashberry! And the guy friends are stupid in this one too, adding to the comedy.
Overall, 9/10

Now, Kira Kira Curtain Call.
Hot!! Hot!! It’s an exciting game! It’s as awesome as Kira Kira!!
It’s kind of weird, but the rock part was so much better than the romance part ^^
This picture sums up the first part.

I wish she was beatable…

I wanted the game to last longer… It was too short for a price of a full game, but I still loved this game. I now have the OP song stuck in my head.
9/10 for this game as well.

Now… I feel empty. I won’t have eroges I’ll be looking forward to this much… at least until Overdrive announces another game…

Some reviews and other updates

Well, another blog about eroge ^^
Haven’t had much time to play eroges recently, finishing Heavens feel translation and trying to get Brass Restoration and all that… But here’s a few I’ve played recently.

Chrono Belt: Ayakashibito and Bullet Butlers fan disc. Must buy if you’re a fan of either one or both games. Super awesome action and battles! A much better fan disc then, say, F/HA ^^ Score: 9.5

G-Senjou no Maou: Very good game. The story felt a bit convenient at times, but the story is great none the less. It’s one of those games where everything is so good that the small flaws become very apparent. Score: 9

Edelweiss: Now, this is a game where the flaws are overwhelmed by the good aspects of the game. The story is convenient again, but the comedy, the songs, and the scenario more than makes up for the flaws. But I’m also biased towards Overdrive ^^ Score: 9

Sekien no Inganock: The world atmosphere is great, as with the story. The art is… unique. Oh, but the Hscenes are worse than Kanon, and boy, that’s BAAAAAAAAD. Score: 8.5

Ikusamegami Zero: Enjoyed the game, got addicted to it. But too much to go through the second time. Oh, and not enough loli Score: 8.0

Wizard’s Climber: Played it over and over. A typical Soft house Chara game. Score: 8.0

Currently playing: Symphonic Rain: Depressing so far… I hear the ending is great, so I’ll keep at it.

Here’s some detailed current progress on the games I’m involved in.

Brass Restoration: I decided not wait for editors and edit the script myself so I can just get this game out. The original translation is worse than I thought. But I’ll probably be done in a few weeks. After that will be a quick beta (a very quick one); everything else is done for the release.

Farland Symphony: Weapon insertion is frankly being A BITCH, from what I hear. Insertion and beta-testing is the only thing left for it, though. Installer and other stuff is already done ^^

Heavens Feel: Editing and beta testing is progressing. This might end up taking a few months…

Up next: Overdrive is licenced now, so I might need to scratch the idea of translating Kira Kira… (T T)
