Double Score Cosmos X Camellia released~


Limited edition comes so full of awesome, I don't even know when the proxy will deliver my copy how I'm gonna stuff all of the games in here!! XD

Anyway, the developer, Blue Moon, has issued a note warning that some stores might have a delay getting this game. I hope nothing goes wrong with the proxy agent I've contracted and they manage to secure mine today.

Reviews must be made, soon (tm)

Celebrity Darling - new mobile game release

So I log into My Sweet Bodyguard for the morning guard before leaving to work and I found out Voltage have released yet another free to play game! I can't keep up with them, think I'll just drop Be My Princess since it's so cheesy...

That cigar shot... even if I dislike it, I bet it'll attract a lot of girls

In Celebrity Darling, you're a girl who dreams of being an artist/entertainer/idol sort of thing, so you decide doing a test for an agency, but you do not succeed. You're later contacted in private by a businessman called Teppei Yamada, representing the "Rabbit Promotion", who is interested in contracting you. That's when your life starts changing while you pursue your dreams... and fall in love with someone from the entertainment industry!

I didn't play it for long or else I'd be late for work ;;Orz but it does look good, almost like a more realistic Uta no Prince-sama approach (I mean, an idol high school? The seiyuu are great but UtaPri really lacks a better plot).

More news when I actually engage into something. Meanwhile, I still need to finish the route roundup for MSBG's casino event >_<;;

Double Score Cosmos X Camellia demo first impressions

HIGH RESOLUTION GRAPHICS!! I think I only play old PC VNs nowdays...


Characters on screen (the regular waist-up images, not CG like this) are kind of animated - I mean, you can see it is just images being flipped through, but there are just too many face variations you almost feel like they are naturally reacting to your responses. I like this a lot and it shows the developers' effort in bringing a lively mood, it really makes it worth to buy the game to have the "full experience" (since, in the previously released drama CDs, you only had sound after all, so you could only wonder what kind of faces the characters did).

Of course, seiyuu are the same from the previous drama CDs as well - it feels great for those who did listen to their situations before.

Oh yeah, overall menu presentation could be better, but it's simple and functional, so it's not a downside.

Go get the trial at their website~

My Sweet Bodyguard - Casino Royale event #3

Were the bugs really sorted out...?
After the real mess following the event's grand opening, I have started doing the character routes available.

The main premise is that the Prime Minister (the good for nothing protagonist's father) has some affairs within the USA (randomly curious note: My Sweet Bodyguard's common route stories takes place in Japan) and he kinda invites you (and every bodyguard, including Goto, who haven't a route in this event) to come along. From there on, you pass through assorted dangerous situations together with the bodyguard of choice.

Without further delay, here's a sort of abridged review for Daichi and Subaru's routes...

Fiddling with SeiOji files #2

Oh look at what I have managed to achieve~


By the way, these are not photoedits, but actual phone screenshots running the game - I just found out the scripts are editable without damaging the game data, thus translating the game is possible, though considering some limitations, like the window for the character names (and dialogue) being a fixed size, making the text flow out like that, but the game runs just fine without lockups =D

I am currently translating the prologue, but I'd like suggestions on which route to translate first.

Seifuku no Ojisama - Shotaro Hayama app event


I didn't even had time to recover from the last event, yet there's a second Gold spamming gathering event, this time warranting a widget featuring Shotaro Hayama, the targetable-character employed as a policeman.

Once again, scoring over 3000 Gold in the period between February 1st and 8th allows you to exchange that Gold amount for the app download.
If it's anything like the previous one, it serves as a clock widget in which you can select the featured character's picture to be displayed together with the current date and time. It's worth the effort if you like either the featured character or a neat clock sitting at your phone's screen, it's free after all, go grab it! =3

Once again, please follow the guide if you still haven't started playing SeiOji. Besides these apps being distributed, it's a nice otome game with a fresh plot.

If I succeed at this event as well, a CG post might follow as soon as the event period is over.
Should the developers continue releasing such events, the next featured character will probably be the doctor.
