Could be fun but it's really hard to play their games when the buttons can't be translated. A ton of time spent on trial and error to figure them out. Also, the games tend to be awfully high variance; well, as long as there are animations it's not that bad though
(I've quite enjoyed some of their past products and even finished a few)

Re: New cbaku game! [RJ133467]聖愛退魔RPG next
Well, a few things on this one:
1) Buttons are partially translated (i.e. there is an Engrish label, but no description); the help files do contain a lot of English as well, although not sure if it's badly translated or machine translated.
2) It uses some kind of hardware acceleration, so probably no chance of hooking text.
3) There seems to be some bugs on some hardware, or maybe 64-bit Windows; all text is displaced, some to outside it's draw area, and some characters don't render. This all seems to be random on load, so I'm really not sure what's going on.
Fortunately, CBaku is pretty good at fixing stuff, so hopefully this will get fixed. If not... well, that's unfortunate.

Supporting Circle Baku I've bought this one:
bitshare.com/files/n47ej8bx/RJ133467.zip.html
Unfortunately, I did not expect the (Spanish inquisition) font problem. Fonts randomly loading and randomly failing to display is a huge turnoff for me. Checking at the creators website this does not seem to be registered as a bug, so I'm not sure if a patch will get around that.
From what I've gathered by searching google this is more a problem with the Kiri Kiri engine itself rather than the game and it should disappear in full screen, I just don't know how to toggle it.
Anyway, long story short. Here's the link and I would greatly appreciate any help on the font problem.

Re: New cbaku game! [RJ133467]聖愛退魔RPG next
Well, I can't say if full screen will fix the problem because I couldn't find anything on it, but I do notice that the changelog for the v1.03 patch says full screen mode has been added.
Incidentally, saying you support a games dev and uploading the game in the same post is more than a little ironic...

Re: New cbaku game! [RJ133467]聖愛退魔RPG next
I agree it's a bit ironic. What I meant was along the lines: "I like it so I've bought it, but many others who would like to play it won't have the cash/can't buy off dlsite" kind of support.
And 1.03 did add fullscreen that's not really a fullscreen but a different resolution that adds a black frame around itself and id doesn't solve the original issue.

Unplayable until the font issue is fixed. Even with the patch, only the main menu displays the fonts in their proper positions.

Right, I've done some research, and it looks like that the issue is that this is not, in fact, a Kirikiri game; it's actually using
If I get a chance, I might try to build the engine from source on Windows 7, and see if that helps. That'll take a while, so check back at the weekend I think.

So my suspicion is that the game may work just fine on Windows 8, but may have bugs in other versions of Windows.If I get a chance, I might try to build the engine from source on Windows 7, and see if that helps.

Actually, if you didn't know, Windows 8 is actually pretty popular in Japan (

Re: New cbaku game! [RJ133467]聖愛退魔RPG next
I got pretty far in this game, but now I'm at an area that just crashes the game every single time.
Even trying to open the area's scene in the gallery causes a crash.

Where are you even getting these new versions? I'd like to see if they fix the crashing bug. It keeps crashing when I try to go to "校舎裏側", which seems to be the school backyard.

Well, here's a nearly full save, only missing some parts of the gallery.

Re: New cbaku game! [RJ133467]聖愛退魔RPG next
Honestly, not sure why v1.06 would make a difference. However, for me at least, approximately 20% of the time the game would load with most characters visible - certainly enough to be playable in battles, although not enough for story scenes - and due to the text being offset, a fair few things aren't visible either (e.g. text near status bars). Just try reloading and going to character status; if you can read that, the game is probably going to be playable.
Incidentally, looking through the source of krkrz leads me to believe that this is probably a missing font issue; I'll try to figure out what font is missing in the near future.

As of now, I don't even know what my attacks do or where my cursor is aiming at during the combat sequences.
I don't even get offset text, only the boxes show something. I wonder if it's something to do with the resolution I'm playing in.
