☆Protagonist Mahiru☆

Hey guys! It’s been a while, but I’ve finally finished writing the script for my SDR2 AU: Danganronpa MK2! As I start drawing the art for it, I’m interested in having some people step in and give the script a proofread. 

What is Danganronpa MK2? 

During the early stages of SDR2′S development, the DR creative team decided to backtrack and reassign Hajime’s role to Mahiru. The resulting game is Danganronpa MK2 (or MK2 for short), where Mahiru takes centre stage!

MK2 will be told via a fake liveblog (think orenronen’s SomethignAwful liveblogs) meaning the script has been set out like we are playing the game. The majority of CGS and screenshots that will accompany the liveblog are not yet included in the script, as they are currently being made by me and @bitesizebird​!

 What will proofreading entail? 

Just the usual stuff: 

Checking grammar and punctuation 

Making sure the script flows well 

Reviewing the general story beats  

Making sure everyone is in character 

You don’t need to be a professional editor or even have a background in editing, all you need is a critical eye!

Other things to know 

There will be new trials and mysteries to solve. 

This au is around the same length as the original game.

It is a bit of a slow burn.

Contacting me/The process 

If you’re interested, you can contact me here on Tumblr or via Discord (preferred). My discord handle is sozzay#6295.

To start off, I’ll link you the Google Documents for the Prologue and Chapter 1 (including the trial). These can serve as a taste test for you guys, and if you’re interested in continuing I’ll send you the next chapter! 

I’m not doing a fangame as such, but a somethingawful styled fake liveblog of an SDR2 in which Mahiru is the protagonist. I’m basically editing assets from the danganronpa wiki/my own in game screenshots in order to create the illusion of a Mahiru led game.

There’s a Java tool called Spiral that can basically extract and convert the files inside the Danganronpa main game files. Most of the game consists of image, audio and script files. Spiral converts these scripts into .osl files (Open Spiral Language) which sounds scary but actually, the script is super easy to understand and use. It looks a bit like this:

This makes editing dialogue, what CG is shown, what characters are available to talk to, etc, really easy to manage. It takes some time to experiment what values control what but if there’s interest, I’ll see if I can compile together the knowledge I’ve gathered into a simple guide.

I won’t show off any of the edits we’ve made without sozzay’s permission but we’ve made some pretty neat stuff so far. Her art is incredible and she’s honestly perfected the official Danganronpa CG style. Seeing it in game is all the more convincing. 

Modding the game to make an AU like sozzay’s is really quite easy though it depends how far you want to go. More substantial changes like UI, map and trial editing are much trickier. I haven’t looked into trial editing yet since it seems more hard-coded but it should be possible to create entirely custom trials too from what I’ve seen. With some hex editing, we were able to successfully edit the UI so that Mahiru actually was character 0 where Hajime used to be so the game and its UI actually made it look more like Mahiru was the protagonist. The same should be possible for the trials too.

This is all the case for Danganronpa 2 at least. Danganronpa 1 I believe is mostly the same but V3 has a different engine or at least runs differently, I can’t exactly remember.

I would be working on it if I had more time but I definitely plan to get working on it again.
