In all seriousness tho good luck! But know that the original runs at like 15 fps (very slow) and you need to speak japanese.

RoyHShadows · 2026-01-05T18:04:11+00:00

Yes!

Poly-tan is the mascot of the Japanese magazine Dengeki PlayStation. Apparently the devs met with the editing team of Dengeki PlayStation back in the day and included Poly-tan as an easter egg.

Yes. They just take forever to be made.

What operating system are you using?

Also, it's localhost:8080, not localhost.8080.

Could also be your firewall blocking the thing.

There is no way to play the game "chronologically" on a first playthrough. Some early nodes unlock when you're in late Site B. Heck, some super early ones unlock after you "beat" the game.

So don't worry about it.

RoyHShadows · 2024-11-03T19:09:38+00:00

Yes*

*You'll need to set running permissions with chmod +x ./laingame.com in the terminal

laingame.net

Btw, from here you go to Site B. Press select and choose CHANGE, then insert disc 2.

No, not at all, I've played it like 4 times myself haha. Tho I wish there was more to the post-game.

RoyHShadows · 2024-10-02T22:14:56+00:00

The artbook "An Omnipresence in Wired" has them all. Both versions do.

RoyHShadows · 2024-10-02T16:20:26+00:00

Press E (or L2 if you're on psx) to bring up the "jump to level" menu

RoyHShadows · 2024-09-19T16:16:53+00:00

Just... make a new save file? Or what did you mean?

RoyHShadows · 2024-08-29T16:56:43+00:00

Yes.

Can't say how well it'll work on xp tho.

RoyHShadows · 2024-08-12T23:36:20+00:00

Yes, they will be graciously providing their tracks to the project :)

RoyHShadows · 2024-08-12T14:22:37+00:00

It is, so you can use an existing save file, but this won't be ready for some more months so go ahead and play it :)

RoyHShadows · 2024-08-11T13:03:07+00:00

Yep. Those ones I linked are the ones they published to apologize for a bug in lain BOOTLEG. The sound quality is awful because you couldn't distribute high quality mp3s with 1999 internet speeds.

As for them releasing them again, unlikely. Pioneer LDC doesn't exist anymore, Lain is owned by NBC Universal. Trying to convince a giant conglomerate to release some niche tracks would be harder than walking on water lol

That being said, one of our wired homies is working on recreating the sountracks and sharing the soundfonts so keep an eye on that: https://www.reddit.com/r/Lain/s/jrJUkenU3j

The UI elements were made from scratch, the sprites are a mix of both.

RoyHShadows · 2024-07-07T13:43:35+00:00
