For as tragic a game I knew it would be, I still bought it at launch. And honestly, as a time waster, it is exactly the experience I hoped for. Fast biking through the sky. What does however sadden me is the wasted potential the game truly had. It could have been a comedic take on Pilotwings, but it's squandered the opportunity. New maps would be nice to see in future updates too.
But like I said, I went in expecting some fun trash, and that's thereabouts what I got.

Tragic like... Momodora 4? Or Lufia 2? Or Red dead redemption? Or let me spoil some other game?
What kind of tragic?

Tragic in the sense the game is exactly what you see. It's basic. The environments look like they were borrowed out of a Unity demo, yet it still manages to provide a suitable amount of variety in the six or seven stages it has. The bike choices in the beginning felt incredibly lackluster also, with the starter bike being too slow to be fun, and the better bikes being too expensive to realistically get before growing tired of using the starter bike. This was however addressed in an update, adding tutorial stages with nice amounts of money for completion - letting you ditch the awful starter gear essentially as soon as you've gotten to grips with the game.

It was a good decision on the dev's part if I'm being honest. The update is another thing worth laughing about. It actually tried to fix a lot of the broken English seen in the game. For example, upon buying a bike, in v1.0, it would be listed as "Buyed". Sure, it's bad grammar, but I found it somewhat amusing and charming. Now, while it does indeed say "Sold Out", the miscellaneous dialogue seen in stages is now broken to the point of the puns being lost in translation.

I know it isn't a good game. I really do. But at the same time, I can't help but find myself charmed by it, enticed even. If you have the spare cash and find yourself in need of something you can pick up in short bursts and just enjoy a little at a time, I really would recommend it.

I'm confused what you mean of the type of tragic in momadora revier under the moonlight...I loved the game so you surly arn't talking about it being bad/buggy, and I don't really remember the story having much tragedy...I suppose the story is slightly forgetable but the gameplay is the forefront of it

I am still sad that no matter the amount of skill I put into it, having taken all achievements, including don't even try this, pacifist and imperishable.
Fucking joke, imperishable, no matter what I do Kaho still dies in the end... Hell, let me bend space time and corrupt continuity, I want Kaho alive!!!

PS: And don't even get me started with Cath!

No, I mean the ending where Kaho sacrifices herself absorbing the evil that curses the Queen into herself and later fading away from the world. I.e. dying in order to effectively remove the curse. :sad:
And also, poor Cath, the best you can do is end her fast out of pity.
Also the Pardoner, poor Pardoner, she was just a little crazy, but she didn't have to die like that.

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
    +1
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
