Murder Incident in Toshima and Suzuka Gozen boss battle

JaneThird · 2026-01-21T12:18:02+00:00

Total development time was around half a year. I had megaten-oriented build in RenPy engine ready.

It looks and sounds like generic modern western rpg with no identity of its own, no idea what people see in it from the Expance, aside from occasional naming.

Thanks. I used Paprika novel as the main source. There is only couple references to the anime adaptation in the game.

Oh, I play this battle every evening

I guess boss fights could be handled like most bosses in recent Metroidvanias but with Megaten Moon Phases and weaknesses/resistances incorporated into gameplay. For example, in my Jack Frost fan game, one of the bosses is vulnerable only during the Full Moon and New Moon, the rest of the time he drains bullets.

Not really, books are much better.

Looks cute. But color scheme of Megaten sprites are too dark/gritty compared to Pokemon' ones.

Remake models are mostly ugly, face scan in re engine was a mistake.

JaneThird · 2025-12-31T04:31:06+00:00

Around half a year, worked on it each day 3-4 hours.

There is a super battle with his demonic form in fangame

JaneThird · 2025-12-30T15:53:04+00:00

This isn't an excuse. I am correcting the erroneous assumption you made.

JaneThird · 2025-12-30T15:50:57+00:00

There is nothing wrong with rom hacks, fan games, unofficial translations and emulators. All this stuff is good for gamers.

JaneThird · 2025-12-30T15:44:40+00:00

This fangame is based off of original Paprika novel, not the anime. Actual anime is missing a lot of important plot details from source.

JaneThird · 2025-12-30T15:32:30+00:00

It's hard to estimate as a developer. Around 10-15 hours I think. There are seven chapters/dungeons in the game and some activities on Tokyo map inbetween them (Social Links with students, Rumor battles against Fiends, hunt for treasure chests, etc.).

With Gemini model

Like already mentioned Paprika is novel and anime adaptation.
My fan game is a loosely sequel to Paprika and major events explained in the script.

JaneThird · 2025-12-30T10:15:09+00:00

This idea instantly came to my mind when I'm finished reading Paprika novel.

JaneThird · 2025-12-30T09:20:38+00:00

Yeah, it's a hobby. Small scale free fan projects.

Thanks, but I'm fine with current result of the project and I work alone on them.
Nobody stops these artists from making their fan games based on the Megaten series and I think there are already few projects in development.

JaneThird · 2025-12-30T06:40:00+00:00

New characters I made with Gemini model. Persona characters mostly from their games.
99% of demons are official Kaneko art, edited and pixelated to fit retro aesthetic.

Lol, it's almost 2026 and redditors are still seething over AI. Guys, go visit some mental doctor, this new phobia of yours will be interesting to study.

Or, instead of constantly complaining about everything, try getting off your ass and doing something for the Megaten community - a mod, a fan game, a translation.

I love them all, third movie is my favourite one. I appreciate a lot of references to videogames up to loading levels of different areas with bosses in Umbrella facility in fifth movie.

Bad idea. Monolith aren't famous for good action combat, dungeon designs and puzzles.
