Hi everyone! After two months of work, I've finally got the game running on the DS/DSi ^^
This was done using VNDS, although there are some issues (i.e. saving/loading), the game should be playable from start to finish.
It's on gamebrew's vnds page if anyone is interested.

Bravo! Congratulations! I love VNs, and ports on DS are rare nowadays.
Regarding the saving/loading, what does the issue consist of? Does it not work at all, or does it sometimes freeze (which is frequent with some titles, e.g. Umineko)? I in any case great job, and I would like you to port more titles, such as the horror masterpiece "Animamundi: Dark Alchemist", which has been freeware for quite some time.

P.S. Hey pal, couldn't you also upload it to mediafire or similar, since gamebrew is not accessible in my country? Thanks. 🙏

The main problems I've had are occasional crashes during saves, random freezes (usually after saving/while skipping through dialogue), and after playing for an extended period there is also a chance to get libpng errors from loading a save file.
I've included a version for the update vnds fork which runs much more stable, although sfx seems to play at a faster speed and the save/load function doesn't work.

Are you certain it's freeware? According to vndb it is still commercially available.

Edit: Removed the other version. Added music and fixed some of the crashes.
Edit2: Updated because I forgot to add a variable and left the old save file in. Sorry ><
Edit3: Many fixes. Doesn't work with previous saves.

Regarding this, the company that distributed it (Hirameki int.) went bankrupt many years ago, and the title was considered freeware for a while. If things have changed lately, I can't say.
After all, it's an old flash player game (vn), and I don't even know if it would work on modern PCs. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I think the freezing might be related to sprite sizes. From my testing, it tends to occur when multiple large sprites are present:
-When there are 2 or more sprites at 256 × 192 (or larger), or
-When there are 2 or more sprites that are either 256 wide or 192 tall.
Maybe you can try reducing the sprite sizes to see if that helps. You'll probably have to adjust their positions in the scripts too.
