Game mentioned as "like King's Field" - Hungry Ghosts

[Guyra]

I'm trying to finish my PhD by May, and that has to take priority with most of my time.

Worst excuse ever!! Prioritizing important real life stuff over a video game translation project! What is the world coming to?

any news? almost 5 months passed already/

Hi,

No real 'news' yet - but it's not at all a dead project.  I've hit an unavoidable, but temporary, bottleneck in my time in real life that I knew was coming.  Some progress has been made, but of course it's an enormous translation project.  The good news (for this project, anyway) is that I will be completely free to work on things like this all summer. I may have a version that's far enough along (but missing some of the obscure parts) to send to a play tester to check for missing/wrong bits in June or so.  It's currently mostly playable (in English anyway) for the first couple areas, except for the 'gameplay instruction notes' at the beginning. 

So, until then, 

Thanks for checking in

Thanks for the update.

Definitely looking forward to hearing about progress this summer Dr. Mord.

I am extremely excited about the translation of Hungry Ghosts. It looks like an awesome game and I really enjoy first person rpg's/dungeon-crawlers.

Any update on the status of this?

[Mord of Swoonlight]

Hey Demifiend, thanks for checking in.  I'm still slowly chugging along on the translation, making progress when I can.  (I recently moved across the country, which slowed things up a bit.)  At least slow progress is better than no progress!  ;)

Is there a rough estimate of when this will be completed?

And if you need someone to test what you have translated so far, let me know, I'd be more than glad.

I know better than to announce a specific date or anything, ha.  But I think I'm on track to finish the version for testing sometime in late summer.  Thanks for volunteering to help test things out!  I don't anticipate sending anything out until the first-pass translations are all done.    (I did a basic check myself, to make sure my changes work, which is when I made those teaser videos.)  But I will definitely be relying on testers at that point to iron out the wrinkles.  I'll send a message around when it gets to that stage.
