Dream vs. Dream

progress for real this time

there are plenty of skeletons that needs to be sprited so if any of you guys have a pencil tool, or binary tool or anything similar and knows how to use it, feel free to join us :’)

I’m not part of the team anymore so I couldn’t give you an exact answer but maybe Neko can help.

*screams* NEKOO!!!!!!!!!!! IS DREAM VS DREAM STILL BEING WORKED ON??? HELP THIS ANON PLS

Shadow and Ses are still doing stages, and I think Shadow is still on GFX (unless he’s got all of those done already, that man is a MAGICIAN).

It’s all kind of going slowly in all other regards, mostly because Mathew’s said he’d redo the ENTIRE GAME ENGINE and then didn’t get around to it ever. For months. And keeps starting new projects. And is now working on a commercial release of Oneshot. Gosh darnit, captain.

I donno what the spriting team is doing, but Thewmat not-quite-yelled at me for asking about progress once a month. Finals kinda killed everyone for a while. Wait lemme check the dropbox. Once it’s done with the 980 files it wants.

Last change, 6/5/2015 11:34. A lotta folks were dead busy during the finals period, but that’ll probably settle. (Remember, we’re basically all students!)

I’ll still push through to keep this amazing project alive. Don’t worry! Like Neko said, we’re not dead yet we’re just kind of slow because of important needs.

Keep an eye out on my art blog and the DvsD forum for anything from me. :)

A new engine is being written at a very, very slow rate. I have a lot of stuff on my plate this summer and I’m afraid I can’t put as much time into DvD as I could a few years ago. I had planned to revise the website, social media outlets, etc. with up-to-date and relevant, transparent information, but frankly I haven’t had the time and energy to do it. The team members are doing what they can with the time they have.

Hi, you are more than welcome to utilize my 2kki translations in any way you please. I actually have a .txt file with most of the text from 2kki. You can download it here: http://www.mediafire.com/view/9hu0oi1jkelh44a/2kki_txtdump_v1.txt

If the Japanese text is showing up as mojibake/gibberish, lemme know and I’ll try my best to fix it.

Note that some lines aren’t translated. I never intended to share this file with the public; it was only supposed to be a reference for when I had to translate new versions.

Also, I’d like to ask: if there’s any time I’d like to update or change any of my translation choices, would it be easy to update the program? I’m just wondering because I’m constantly learning new things and tweaking my work to accommodate my new knowledge.

Oh, and I still need to send you some translated images I did as well. I have every text-related image (such as the GameBoy World menus) in a folder and when I’m translating I go through the new version to see if any of the image files have changed and, if not, I copy and paste the translated images into the new version. I’m a little strapped for time right now, so I won’t be able to get them to you until this afternoon, I’m afraid.

I’ll also try and work on translating some of the untranslated lines in the text dump.

For the actual in-game text translations, I was able to translate the effect text/PC text using your translation and Google translate (and my own limited ability) as a reference. For the remaining text (which is a lot more than I was expecting from a Yume Nikki fangame, but hey, this is 2kki), Rosette has agreed to help. (It should be noted that I didn't haphazardly using Google translate for things like books or other things that affect the mood or story of the game, but rather UI stuff.)

The translation program is designed to easily accommodate new text and image patches, so if you would like to revise anything in particular, adding it to the patch would be a breeze. I can send you the text patch files if you want to take a look or want to help, because there's a surprising amount of text hidden in this game.

Annnnnnd done.

Uro walk! I wanted to try adding a blinking animation but it was too frequent :/

sprite blur edits/updates

WIP for the Underwater Carnival stage. Still need to get some kinks out and add in a few more things. 

If you’ve ever wondered what the animation process basically is like

I create animation skeleton hell and make a skeleton first based off of the moveset description

Submit the animation for pixel artists (I can’t pixel very well, so I’m not good enough to finish my skeletons)

Let the pixellers handle it

BOOM finished product 80
