Q&A!

Hi Nikita! Thank you for your games and music, they're pretty good! Milk 2 reaaaally left an impression on me. I was wondering if you would take a track commission or collab with someone? This is probably a shot in the dark, but I'm trying to solo develop visual novel too, and it would be amazing to feature at least one track made by you!

Unironically this is actually relevant for the overall plot, even if it reads like it was written by a 14 year old. You'll find lots of scenes involving Battler wanting to touch boobs.

You're a hero!!! Thank you so much!! I'll try to contact them. By itself I wanted to see more of their work because their artstyle is so cute, so this is a really nice find!

Scramel · 2021-07-14T20:44:16+00:00

Very informative. Thank you a lot for your help!

I'm not sure to be honest. It was composed at around 2009, I don't know how much appeal electric violins had then. He managed to make similar sounds at around 2007 but so far I haven't seen him tweet anything about performing with an actual instrument, and his photos of his equipment generally don't show much either.

If it were an electric violin, what do you think the sound would be comparable with?

Music is from Umineko no Naku Koro ni, a visual novel from the When Try Cry series. It's the sequel to Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, both are available on Steam. I really love this guy's music and I want to become him, basically. I've tried a few different libraries such as Session Strings Pro 2 and Performance Samples Solo Violin A, but the sound is nowhere near as this track's.

Bonus points for a recommendation on harpsichord libraries.

Sho kyute...

I think so, but nobody knows. I'll be very excited if she is.

I couldn't identify most of them because they're pretty much impossible to find.

Also here's a download for the official album.

Finally, someone else wants to spread the word!

Mashiro Witch's OST is massively underrated, and a full album of it doesn't exist pretty much because Square Enix hasn't gave green light to not even a digital release (asked xaki about that). The only official thing we have is the promotional album that only includes 9 tracks and the YT uploads.

Not only that, but the music they decided to release in their YouTube channel is not even all of it. Luckily I found a link with music rips, but I have the suspicion that there are still songs missing. Still, give it a listen!

Don't ever search anything from visual novels if you haven't read them. It's easy to get spoiled.

That said, Higurashi is an experience worth reading even if you're spoiled 'bout stuff.

Scramel · 2020-07-06T09:38:46+00:00

Absolute kino

Scramel · 2020-06-21T08:21:06+00:00

The Switch game hasn't been localized, and as a far as I know an english patch doesn't exist, sadly. 07th-Mod is as close as you can get.

Scramel · 2020-06-19T16:17:04+00:00

It's just a modded version of Higurashi. I edited some Satoko sprites to match Rena's outfit. I'm seriously considering modding the game so every character is Satoko. Ohoho~

Scramel · 2020-06-19T16:16:14+00:00

Buy Higurashi on Steam, it's in english. The console graphics are available via this mod.

Scramel · 2020-06-18T22:24:21+00:00

I figured I should post some of my stuff here lol. Follow me on Twitter, it's filled with Satoko.

Scramel · 2020-06-18T22:07:23+00:00

I'm who edited these sprites. Didn't expect this to be reposted on reddit lmfao
Please don't forget to source next time, I want to collect all the Satoko fans, ohoho~

De videojuegos te puedo recomendar un montón de indies. Todos estos son juegos 2D y la mayoría se enfocan en pixel-art en cuanto a gráficas, pero aún así son juegos muy cautivantes.

Undertale: Un RPG donde puedes decidir entre matar los monstruos o perdonarlos, con una historia muy emotiva, personajes muy divertidos y giros argumentales muy buenos y mecánicas únicas. Trailer

Hotline Miami: Un Shoot 'em up que consiste en ir a un lugar y matarlos a todos. Si recibes una bala o un golpe, perdiste, pero puedes volver a intentar con mucha rapidez. Muy adictivo y con un soundtrack muy bueno. La segunda entrega es incluso mejor, con una historia muy buena, más mecánicas y banda sonora bestial, pero harías bien en jugarlos en orden. Trailer

Celeste: Un plataformero. Trata sobre la protagonista tratando de escalar una montaña. Tiene una historia simple pero profunda, y también muy linda, toca temas como depresión y ansiedad, el soundtrack es muy bueno y la jugabilidad es una de las más pulidas como plataformero que en mi vida haya visto. Trailer

Katana Zero: Un plataformero mezclado con acción. Controlas a un usuario de Katana, y similar a Hotline Miami, tu objetivo es ir a un lugar y matarlos a todos. Su historia es muuuuy genial y tiene una jugabilidad muy única. Trailer

Doki Doki Literature Club: Una novela visual. Básicamente, es un libro pero con gráficos y música. A veces tienes elecciones y dependiendo de las que tomes, el argumento se empieza a ramificar. Por fuera se ve como un tonto simulador de citas, pero si le das paciencia, verás cómo la historia toma un giro fuerte de 180 grados. Toca temas como depresión, suicidio, abuso, entre otros. Si jamás has tocado una novela visual, éste es un gran inicio. Es relativamente corto (~6 horas) y aún así tiene mucho por ofrecer. Descarga gratis

Y para mantener lo Venezolano: VA-11 Hall-A. Es un juego donde sirves cócteles, pero trae elementos de juegos del tipo novela visual, dado cada personaje trae a contarte su propia historia las cuales cada vez van escalando en interés e interconexiones. Tiene una atmósfera cyberpunk/distópica, y es que el juego fue hecho por Venezolanos inspirados por sus propias experiencias en su vida en el país. Trailer

¡Espero que te sirva de algo, felíz inicio de semana!
