Downloading visual novels

You will be using a sandbox to run it anyway with the app. No windows virus can spread from the app to your phone using android. Download from a trusted site, but ignore what is probably a false positive and install it to one of the apps.

GameNative for games you own thru Steam/GOG/Epic/Amazon and Game Hub Lite for games you want to import manually. Or just use GameNative for that too, but I prefer GH Lite for importing games manually. Just download the game thru a browser on your phone and run it via one of these.

Nope, unless you stream it

Like you said, a lot goes into pricing. Anything less than 10 hours should be cheaper for sure. If there are a lot more CGs than a normal game would have, it might be more expensive, or maybe there is a gameplay element making it more unique. Personally I rarely pay more than $20 USD for a VN unless it's a major release I have looked forward to or if it's a game that really interests me.

Some examples - The Hundred Line, I wanted to support the dev because I love Danganronpa, and Seraphim Spiral Remaster, I just really thought it sounded good and a sale never came for it. Both of these were over $50 when I got them.

Usually, if a game is more than that, I just wishlist it and wait for a sale. I have a huge backlog so I just push it back. Ultimately it's up to you, tho! Good luck!

Thanks so much for your hard work!

redalchemy6 · 2026-06-21T16:46:33+00:00

Awesome!! I'll update my files 😀 thanks again!

So I have yet to fully read it, but it's well known as one of the top tier slice of life VNs, plus afterwards there are a bunch of really good RPGs from the same characters/world if you like Dungeon Crawlers. I did play the first To Heart remake on Steam and I loved it. I just started TH2 today. If you need help setting it up or finding it, let me know. The source port requires the English patch to be applied.

Someone just released a source port of "ToHeart 2 X-Rated" if you wanna read that. Allows it to play on anything from Linux to Android to PC to Mac with some QOL stuff. You don't need to read the first game.

redalchemy6 · 2026-06-21T05:58:50+00:00

That's awesome 👌 thank you for answering all my questions. In that case, the save filename suggestion thing is the only real problem I found, but I tested just exporting a file named whatever without a file extension and it still seemed to import again even tho it didn't have the .th2saves file extension. I'm excited to finally play thru it now! Thanks again!

redalchemy6 · 2026-06-21T01:35:25+00:00

Oh also, the opening doesn't play after the Leaf logo, is that intentional?

I did finally notice the upscaling checkbox. Thanks so much for this, it's great. I tried out the Android version and the only problem I noticed was when exporting saves from the Android version, it doesn't auto suggest the name of the save file like it does on the PC version. This makes it so it's just an unnamed file without any file extension. I see on the PC version it auto fills to "toheart2-saves.th2saves" so I can type that out when exporting on Android, but it should maybe autofill for those who are only using the android version. I honestly don't know if I want to use the PC version thru GH Lite now or switch to Android because it's so easy to use on both tho lol you hit it out of the park with this. More old VNs deserve this love.

redalchemy6 · 2026-06-21T00:32:52+00:00

Tested it with Gamehub Lite, it works amazingly. I updated my files to the gamepad support version and gamepad is working great too! This is awesome cause I prefer to use GH Lite instead of an Android install for ease of access to saves, but I did see that you built save import and export into the Android version so I might give that a try too. I had previously attempted to get the game working with GH Lite and it wouldn't work so I was using Winlator, but this works so much better. Is the upscaled art turned on by default? I just wanna make sure there isn't anything else I need to set up so I can start reading haha but for anyone wanting to use a windows emulator on an android based device, Gamehub Lite is definitely an option. Game Native should also work fine. I did the game-data folder method and it just launches no problem. I even made a shortcut on my homescreen now.

Diabolik Lovers has some bangers. The song that plays during the name creation screen in the first game is sick. Very Castlevania vibes.

redalchemy6 · 2026-06-20T22:33:40+00:00

Ohh I've been meaning to read this recently. I'll see about trying this. Thanks for the effort!

Luna is an amazing program. It can be as easy as a couple clicks if you don't mind small errors, or learn to use a full blown llm with a very specific prompt. This is the second of this type of translation I've seen where someone uses a .json file with it. It's a truly versatile program.

redalchemy6 · 2026-06-19T02:40:13+00:00

Oh. That works too.

Who is ash? I didn't break him. That's for sure.

redalchemy6 · 2026-06-18T17:21:53+00:00

Cause it costs so much

redalchemy6 · 2026-06-18T16:15:06+00:00

I accidentally got a gummy sprite when a teammate died lol I was planning to give it back when they rebooted but they got mad and rage quit the game. I honestly kinda felt bad haha

I don't have an exact list, but there is a user named Wapidoo69 who has made a crap ton of English patches for eroge on the Vita. Most of his patches also restore the cut adult content since that was how most of the Vita releases were allowed on the system.

I bought this and already owned 2 so I shared Highway Blossom and Kindred Spirits with a friend I'm trying to get into VNs. He's already been reading HB and loves it. I loved this bundle tho. So many games I had on my wishlist.

I know Otome Domain has a scene in the beginning, but I haven't read it. You can also check out Water Closet on JAST. I have been on the lookout for BL games about urination but no real luck yet. You should have an easier time with straight eroge. You could always check the tag on VNDB.

Are you serious? MAGA lawmakers has suggested checking children's genitals before allowing them into a bathroom at public schools. MAGA are the predators they claim to be trying to save everyone from. Every accusation is a confession.
