Such a sad sad day.

Wish I had the necessary skills to translate Shuffle, alas, I have none of the skills needed. -sigh- I need to go back to school and take some programming courses as well as Japanese.

Vexx · 2009-01-13, 01:54

I just hate that a lot of work might get simply lost and anyone else who took it up would have to start from scratch. That's why places like the B-T translation projects are great... if someone is hit by a meteor, the work can survive.

sora12 · 2009-01-13, 21:56

honestly, i think if they know that something like this could happen, i wish that they plan some effective counter measures. Well we just have to wait or its better to think that it is already lost forever.

Vexx · 2009-01-14, 14:54

aye, I can't say I'm terribly happy with the situation. If they intend on finishing it - fine, say so. If they don't, also say so. Its been "almost done" for, what, 3 years now?

It actually impedes other people from starting because no one likes to re-do work that they know exists. That's why places like Sourceforge are so popular (open source software site).

Starting to think about putting my copies of Shuffle! and TickTack! up on ebay... :P I've played through them in my torturous knowledge of Japanese.

LookaBomba · 2009-01-20, 18:44

oh hey im new here so...yea....anyways i have been trying www.game-patch.org and i always get "404 error"......has the site been down long?

siber222000 · 2009-01-20, 19:30

haha i gave up on this patch long time ago =_=... too bad but i guess some people doesn't know how to back up important files or make copies.

Vexx · 2009-01-20, 23:34

"back ups" weren't the issue.. .its that the guys who *HAVE* the data keep vanishing offline for months or years, leaving the others adrift.

As far as the website goes.... they keep taking it down to save money if nothings happening. There was also a period when their site host apparently had them on a very tight transfer cap and it would go offline frequently as people tried to visit.

Frankly, I'll give it six more months and then call the project essentially dead and stop worrying about it anymore.

LookaBomba · 2009-01-21, 14:12

i think its stupid if u ask me i mean c'mon i have waited 4 at least 7 months now and they still dont even have 80% of the real patch done!!!!

i have been trying 2 get the alpha patch but i dont know where 2 find it....the internet is a big world......i am soooooo lost!!!!!!

Try 3 or so years for some of us.

Not really waiting, I forgot about it after a while, but it's all the same.

Vexx · 2009-01-22, 20:13

yeah.. heh... 7 "whole months"

Sorry, don't mean to poke - but for those of who've been checking periodically since 2005-ish just find that a bit funny.

"They" appear to only work on it in their spare time (since it is a hobby after all) but it does seem they've vanished for good this time...

sora12 · 2009-01-24, 09:13

well we cant blame them because they are just their hobby but i am disappointed for their lack of consideration. well, lets forget about this.

LookaBomba · 2009-01-25, 00:38

NO WAY!!!!!

i would really like it if some1 has a link or download for the alpha patch but maybe im asking 2 much here

and if i cant get any english patch for this game then i will forget about this WHOLE thing

Leiji · 2009-01-26, 20:50

well, i do have a patch here.... i don't know if this patch is the correct, but is better than nothing... sry the poor english because i'm from another country.

lol!!!! thats ok ur english is pretty good if i may say so

Vexx · 2009-01-27, 01:39

Took a look at it... it does appear to be the alpha patch of the translation. Thanks to Leiji.

LookaBomba · 2009-01-27, 13:00

yeah it is great job on finding this though the patch is abit screwy but it's better than nothing

Yakumo Fan · 2009-02-22, 03:47

And still no news. And I still believe the patch will soon be finished.
Shit, I'm going right now to start learning japaness :/ It'll be quicker i think

Keroko · 2009-02-22, 05:39

Question: Is the alpha patch worth the effort of purchasing Shuffle, or is it a half-done patch that leaves much of the game untranslated.

Sian · 2009-02-22, 09:00

its only the first two days ... not really that much to cheer for ...

Keroko · 2009-02-22, 09:15

Thanks, that saved me from spending money on that game.

Though seriously, if they're not planning to finish the game they could at least release their work so far and let others pick it up.
