Does anyone here know about these games?

Towelket is a series of RPG Maker games inspired by MOTHER, with surreal, philosophical, and horrific themes. Currently, there are six games, and four spin-off titles.

Recently, a few people have started work on translating the series. If you can aide with the translation, feel free to join the IRC: irc://irc.rizon.net/towelket

I heard about it a good while ago (I'm guessing 2-3 years ago) being referenced alongside Yume Nikki and (I think) Ao Oni, so I guess you could say I know about it, though it looks like you know more than me; I had thought there were only 4 games, and had no idea anyone was working on translating the series. Pretty nice to know I'm wrong on both of those, though!

I'm unaware on the status on 3 (which is actually the first game), but 1 (the first game, which I posted screenshots of) has been translated up to start of chapter four. Some of the text gets cut off and there are a few bits of untranslated dialogue, but that will be fixed later down the line. You can get it here: http://www.sendspace.com/file/foqwag

You'll need to install the Japanese RPG maker runtime package to play these games. Get that here, and click on "Zip形式 2000rtp.zip(サイズ:11.7MB)": famitsu.com/freegame/rtp/2000_rtp.html

For updates, check out the Towelket thread on /jp/ (11142304).

Also, do not upload any videos of the gameplay. It goes against the author's wishes.

You know how xenophobic the Japanese are? It's probably related to that. Why would some glorious Nipponese man want a gaijin to touch his glorious Nipponese game intended for other glorious Nipponese?

Or maybe the Japanese have really different takes on fame and the like. Maybe the author is a hipster who wants his game to stay as underground as possible. Maybe he really is sensitive to fan works and fan art makes him cry.

I wish I could ask him myself.

Thanks for the hard work! A couple of things I noticed (I played only the intro part):
- Can the naming screen be fixed to include the English alphabet? Or if that's too difficult, leave it out and just use the character's official name.
- The title of the first chapter (I think - it was a huge white text on a black background) wasn't translated.

It can't be changed so it's been removed.

The chapter images were also translated now, with the text added by another.

It's been almost a year, but I edited it so all the text should be on the screen and typos should be nearly or completely non-existent. Writing might still be a little weird because no one has looked over it but me, and my concern was with translating more so than making it pretty.

This is essentially the final version, unless I really need to change something.

Creator of the wikia and the IRC channel here. I'll be uploading the translation of Towelket 1 again after me and the translator managed to fix the issue with japanese particles in the battle text. I'll also be updating the wikia page with more content since I finally got around to playing the first game of the series (Towelket 3).
And maybe I'll start working on Towelket 2 after I finish all games in the series (originally, I was supposed to be translating it, but I was horrible at japanese back then). I'll make some kind of wordpress or tumblr blog to post about updates on the translations when I start.

It's because of Towelket 2.
After commentary/gameplay videos of it went online, the creator thought it misrepresented the game and despised the fact it was compared to Yume Nikki and labeled as a depression game.

To this day, if you google 鬱ゲー (depression game), Towelket 2 will show up quite often in the results. I think the reason why Towelket 1 ended up being so different is likely due to the reception 2 got.

The darkest entry in the series, Fury was also deleted from everywhere.
That one is the real masterpiece of the series in my opinion. The creator and her mental issues take center stage over the story and characters. It becomes a way to channel her disillusionment with women and their place in society. It's fucking mental.

Probably nobody cares about the series or this thread anymore.
Hopefully the rest of the games get translated someday.

You can get 2 & 1 on freem which is where most of the games are. It's even got the demo for the new game since the creator is back to making games again. She seems to have removed 6 & 5 though. 6 and 裏 are both the same game. I'm not too sure about 表, but if you want a release order it should go 3, 2, 1, 6, 4, Fury, 5, and then the spinoffs.

During the dinner scene press the up key two times then press enter. The creator hated that game and just uploaded it when it was finished without bug fixing it and then tried to remove it from the face of the internet. It's still possible to get to the end and there aren't any other bugs that'll stop progress to the same extent as the dinner scene bug, but you're at the part where the lack of bug fixing really starts to show.

nice get. Right now I'm doing it with RPGMakerTransv4.5, which is so easy a techlet like me can use it.
So far it's going well, but I'm a little worried about…

-the alien and Elizabeth dialogue. The aliens often use fairly complicated technobabble, while Elizabeth uses a very sarcastic style I'm not sure I can translate right.
-the honorifics and pronouns, should I keep them, translate them awkwardly or try to rewrite them to something more natural? See in the pic, Paripariume says "Obasan…" referring to the protag's mother. This happens a lot and I wonder if I should just go the "Witch Hunt way" and leave all anatas, obasans and oneesans in.
-same for Japanese standard phrases, if I rewrite every ara ara to oh my, this game will say Oh my a lot.

on the technical side, it bothers me that I can't find the string for "enemy defeated", as you see it's still in Japanese. Do I need to install RPGmaker for this?

>But I'm ok with translating the text.

if you could help translate the Elizabeth hint corner and maybe items/skills it would be great. That part takes up a significant chunk of the script, see pic.

Pretty sure those are in some "common event" file, but I wouldn't be able to tell without peeping at the files.

To contact me, either join the discord server for ubuu translations (link in https://scans.uboachan.net/about.html ) and shoot me a message, or you can send a mail and we'll see if there's any alternative (DM or other). IRC is kind of dead but I'm okay with contacting through that if necessary.
Or give me a mail and I'll contact you, whichever feels better for you.

You can help by proofreading or helping to tune the translations. Believe me, sometimes, when we are trying to translate things, we tend to go a little too literal (because we're trying to bend the target language so it approaches the original text), even though there may be more natural ways of sayings something in the target language. Having someone pointing things out and criticizing the translation makes a much better product after a few iterations.
Plus, the more people that test the game before release, the better things turn out since we're able to fish bugs out and make sure everything works as intended.


>>5450
I made a separate channel for towelket in that discord channel in order to dump assets/files and another for discussion (if anyone else wants to join). I'm kinda busy with mock exams next week so it's pretty much bare bones at this point (and dead, since I'm stalling on mango releases too), however once I'm free again I'm going to commit to helping with the translation and technical details of the patch.

it covers the first three chapters, and chapter 4 to the point where you reach the A-Type city. (about 2/3 of the game) I will work on the remaining events.

I'm translating Warawau now, though I'm not even at map 100 yet(out of 341, although there's only about 300 with any sort of text in them), but maybe I'll get motivated soon. I don't really intend to release anything before I'm done. After that, if I feel like still translating, I might do 3 if it isn't done by someone by then, although I'm not sure what the differences between the original and remake are and if I should only bother with the latter.

There was some mention of Warawau being translated and needing proofreading, and while I don't know for sure, I feel like it's referring to a "cleaned up" Google translation someone did of it, which I do have, but is of course mostly nonsensical.

It's been a long time since I started and I notice the author seems to have sometimes written names with Roman characters in the more recent games. Is there a list of author Romanized names of the major reoccurring characters?

PPU that you?
It has been forever but is good to know you are working on Warawau.

That translation of Warawau should be discarded though, it was done on Google translate so it is quite useless.

With Towelket 2 and Warawau in the works I think we would only need Fury.

hey there, good to see you.
>although I'm not sure what the differences between the original and remake are and if I should only bother with the latter.
I only played the original 3 to completion.
The Karaage Tanpopo RPGmaker 2000 version is the one with a partial translation afaik.
As for the MV remake, I only played the trial version from the dev's website. Judging from the first chapter, it has new scenes, new characters, new character designs for the old characters (wow the male protagonist really looks like a girl there) and most importantly a revamped battle system. Up to 6 characters in battle and they act when their action bar is filled up (sort of like in Touhou Labyrinth). They also have limit break attacks and such.

Can't help you with the name thing though. With some names I don't even begin to have an idea how to romanize them. Just look at this.

After 3,2, and 1, came Ura which later became 6. That is the one that introduced Minpou, Warawau, and Nyanyamo. Then came 4 that's the one that has a bit of a Peter Pan/My Little Mermaid feel to it and it's the one where Warawau shows up as a fairy. After that was fury which was originally supposed to be 5, but the bug testing for that one never finished and the creator then tried to nuke it from the internet. After that came Gau Gau's Bride which is currently accepted to be Towelket 5.

oh, good thinking.
Yeah エールエア looks like a complete nonsense name to me. Eeruea? I thought Ellea would be a compromise that isn't a pain to say out loud.
Sera is clear, the only guys I'm still wondering about are "Krishe" クリシェ and "Zukke" ズッケ.
Krishe is supposed to be a cypress according to the pixiv wiki…

Zukke might actually be "Zucche", which is Italian for pumpkins . What do you think?

Strait up googling クリシェ brings up cliche, but I'm not entirely sure that's it. I did the same for エールエア too and found nothing so unless we get an official romanization anything goes for those two. If you ask me Krishe and Ellea sound fine but a second opinion wouldn't hurt. As for ズッケ I think either of those two work though I've always been referring to him as Zukke in my head.

Speaking of nonsense names though some of the characters that show up in the later games really do have some out there names. Like うぃけちゅけなっつりここなっつぃー who shows up in Yoru no Umi and Yorumorukimiri or Arma-Goddamn-Motherfuckin-Geddon from Shippoutachi no Kizuna. Yes there is a character named after a Marilyn Manson song.

The long vowel in katakana works to cover for unvoiced letters in a word (picture シャーク、チョーク、ゴール), so yeah, Ellea works for エールエア [Which should be pronounced as Ell'ea]. クリシェ makes me wonder if maybe there's some reference, but considering names as this one
>うぃけちゅけなっつりここなっつぃー
exist, yeah, don't sweat it that much. I wouldn't discard Cliche completely, Lasagna is, after all, a name for a girl and it's completely random from all I know.

you can make that decision when are asked to stay the night on Poppichi's workshop. If you hurry back to the Pon battleship, Pucchi survives and will have either her offensive or defensive skillset - depending on what you told Poppichi earlier. But if you stay at Poppichi's workshop, the remodeled Pucchi will die in the Kisechu ambush, becoming Reincarnated Pucchi. The problem of choosing living Pucchi is that you won't get the scene of Pon Groom sleeping together with Conchelle.

Did you use the save file from an older translation? It looks like old save files uses the old database and reference the wrong asset names, that's why the game can't find those "mojibake assets" shown above. My first two screenshots show old savegames in the new translation, the third screenshot shows how it is when you start from the beginning. I'm afraid you need to start over or continue playing the old translation (or edit your savefile, I think vgperson's tool can do it but I don't know if it can fix a database error https://vgperson.com/posts.php?p=rpgmakerguide).
If just you want to reach chapter 4 quickly, you can open the game in test play mode, start a new game and add 3 "Gonna Die Pillow" items to your inventory to make yourself temporarily overpowered.

by old translation I meant the older version where the RPG_RT is still in Japanese, the game is completely in English except for those Japanese words in battle messages and needs the Japanese RTP.

Everyone, Towelket Reverse a.k.a. Towelket 6 English translation is nearly done. I'll share the to-do list of the Patchy Illusion Team:

1. First translation of all text, interface, events (this is finally done - Wasshoi!)
we are here -→2. fixing spelling mistakes, dealing with awkward sentences/puns etc.
3. inserting the TL with RPGMakerTrans
4. offering a DL with the Japanese RPG_RT for those who want to continue their 50% partial savegame
5. renaming the assets to change the Japanese filenames
6. testing if nothing broke
7. checking for further bugs and glitches, TK6 has more of them than the previous games. Making a "bugfix patch" of sorts that removes/changes the "empty text bubbles" etc.
8. providing "bugfix files" with the upload
9. FIN

additional tasks
- contacting the author - I've wrote the author yesterday and got the answer "I have no problems translating my work" - however, Towelket 5, 6 and fury are no longer distributed on vector/freem, to ask him how he feels about the English TL of TK6 being passed around, a game that was supposed to disappear from the internet.
- changing the rather small and ugly font (see 2nd pic), Chesir is working on it rn

Towelket Reverse/6 translation is complete. I've decided to share the translated game now, though it is still in need of editing and checking for errors. The team will continue making improvements to the script in the next few weeks.

Note that this uses the Japanese RPG_RT and RTP! So for those users who played the partial translation, I think it should be fine to copy over your save file. Have fun

the old author's blog doesn't exist anymore, but according to pixiv wiki the fish hats used to be human. I can't find an explanation for the hats they're wearing, but I suppose that they grant special powers since the hats can use similar magic abilities on their own during the final boss fight. Or maybe those hats are just like monsters summoned by Zucche, who knows? They're called 名残 there, or remnant/vestige

sadly 6 is extremely unfinished, for example: K made an unused map (pic related, you can access it with play test mode in easy rpg) that apparently would lead to Nyanyamo's escape from the Pon mother ship.

From my point, there was too much with Agochu's bots. Sure the dialog was fun and all but I would have preferred if that was used for the main characters which for me were Minpo, Warawau and Nyanyamo. Agochu could have been a side character just to flesh out the story.
But hey, Towelket 3 was kinda remade, no? Maybe 6 can get the same treatment, maybe.

And I hope Warau is more complete than 6.

Agochu and Pucchi were fine but the rest definitely didn't need to be there. They didn't contribute anything and were just there to take up space. And I wouldn't worry too much about Warau. It's a much more complete experience and doesn't give you a bunch of useless characters like 6 did. The only other character that joins aside from the main 3 that were in 6 is Chihedomusubi and she meshes with the party a lot better than the extras from 6.

That was from the TV Tropes page right? Some stuff in it is accurate but it's got a fair amount of misinformation too. For example the character page lists Nekoashi Otome as the protagonist of 5 even though she doesn't actually show up in that game. The first game Otome showed up in is Kaiketsu! Nekoashi Otome-chan and that game came out after 5 did. If it's got something about a game you haven't played yet then take it with a grain of salt since it was written when none of the games were translated and hasn't been updated since.

Nice. It's a long way off before they're translated but I do have a few details for some of the later games. Yoru no Umi and Yorumorukimiri are heavily story based with virtually no combat. Yoru no Umi also has the highest amount of endings based on choices you made throughout the story and which girl you pick for your love interest. Yorumorukimiri on the other hand is the longest game in the series. This is only based on my personal experience but I'd say the average Towelket game is about 5 to 8 hours. Yorumorukimiri however took me over 40 hours to beat. That game has about 7 chapters and the majority of those chapters are made up of around 10 sub-chapters. The first chapter in particular has nearly 20 sub-chapters. So needless to say it's a long game.

As for the later 2 Yorumorukimiri games Shippoutachi no Kizuna is about a tanuki named Tantanuki who transfers to Deudeu Academy to acquire and learn how to use an angel. However Tantanuki and their friends are dragged into the academy's fight against the mysterious being Douke Neko/Jester Cat. It also overhauls the sprites for the battle and maps. I highly recommend playing it after Yorumorukimiri since it makes a lot of references to it that wouldn't be understood if you play it first. As for Hajimari no Shoujo that one is still in development so I don't really know anything about it.

Like 3 Yoru no Umi and Shippoutachi no Kizuna has a boy/girl option for the main character. Yoru no Umi basically becomes a yuri harem if you play as a girl.

Since Yorumoru is much newer compared to the rest of the series I don't think you'd be able to find much. Especially since you have you pay for it.

okay neat.
I added a few notes to the top:

>All the games are focused on story and character interactions. There isn't much combat in any of the games and there are no random encounters, all monsters are visible on the map as symbols.

>Every game is in a "parallel world" and some characters appear in multiple games, but their role in the story, appearance and personality is often wildly different - it's kind of like in Zelda games.

I'd probably go with some games don't have much in the way of combat instead since it varies. None of them are all that hard but some games certainly have a bigger focus on combat than others.

I've beaten Shippoutachi no Kizuna. There's a lot I'd like to say about the plot, but I'll keep quiet on that until more people have played it since I don't want to give away anything that might be a spoiler. But aside from that I do want to mention that it has a much bigger focus on battles than the first Yorumorukimiri. It's still a pretty easy game, but it's not nearly as braindead as the one before it. Also even though you can pick between a guy or girl tanuki and the entry for Tantanuki on the creator's blog mentions that you can pick male or female both options refereed to me as male throughout the story. I don't know if the creator said anything about it so I can only assume that either it'll be added in a future update since he often updates past games or he changed his mind and decided to just leave it as an option to pick Tantanuki's appearance.

Well - imagine, like if you were an adolescent/young adult and made a very, very edgy RPG Maker game, where you shoot up your school or something, or where you keep all your real life bullies in a torture chamber… you would probably have a change of heart, like, "God no I can't make this game, it's too much"? Towelket fury's author had no such inhibitions. If the game ever gets a finished TL it really should be plastered in content warnings, Christ it's edgier than Pico.

次回新作「でかぱり」 (upcoming title "Dekapari / Giant Pari")

synopsis:
A girl I grew up with died.
The one who puts flowers at her graveside… me (you)
When I turn around and look at the sky, I see a gigantic girl looking at me, blocking the entire sky.
That huge girl was my childhood friend who was supposed to rest for eternity.

info:
As soon as Yorumorukimiri 3(currently in production) is completed, I will start work on "Dekapari".

There's no stopping k-san.

Towelket: One more time ~Fury~ is translated!

The game was tested several times and it should be playable from beginning to the end.

It also has a gamebreaking bug that could be easily avoided, just read the attached "Readme" file in the game's folder (or you could just always hold your daughter in your team).

Recently binged through all the translated Towelket games over the last few days. Here are some quick reviews:
3: Cute and overall pleasant. Far more lighthearted than the others. The combat system is weak but that's true for the entire series. The shrinking premise is handled well and adds a lot of charm to the game. I like that humanity is basically unaware of the hostile alien invasion going on.
2: Quality is consistently high throughout. It's not a feelgood game in the least, though. The early parts are an outstanding kleptomania simulator.
1: A rollercoaster ride of high highs and low lows. Lots of crazy twists. The scripting gets pretty sloppy for a while after the second time skip. Little indication of what to do or where to go. Arm still appears in dialogue when she's not in your party. Doesn't seem like you can render it unwinnable though, just keep exploring. A lot of the best parts of the game are the side stories that initially seem unconnected to the main plot. The story of Chun and the story of the No. 3 robot that crash lands on an alien planet are highlights. Cow-chan's subplot is solid black comedy too. These games tend to end abruptly. Part 1 isn't an exception, but I thought it was more effective than most of the others.
6: Much weaker than its predecessors despite a promising start. Has far more talking but less personality compared to the rest. The ending is abrupt even for a Towelket game. The antagonists have very little presence throughout the game. Can't recommend it.
Fury: Starts out with good potential. Seems like the author was going for a tragic tone like Towelket 2, but it's too cartoonishly edgy to take seriously. The game also doesn't give you much reason to care about the characters, and without that the tragedy doesn't work. Paripariume from 2 is ten times more sympathetic as anyone in Fury. Combat system revolves around exploiting elemental weaknesses and resistances. It ultimately doesn't have much depth but at least an effort was made.

6 has a lot of flaws, it was treated rather unkindly by the author who just rushed the heck out of it. (further above there are more details on that).
Still, I rather like its unique atmosphere, I think it has some of the best music in the series, Minamikaze is still one of my favorites. And Warawau is just great, she's so evil in this game that in every other appearance in the later games the players expect her to do something abhorrent.

Okay, here is Towelket 4 with a partial English translation so you can take an early peek. It covers the first 9 chapters - there's still a fair amount of text left to translate (about 30%), but I think it should be complete within the next few months.

Have fun, and Merry Christmas!

It's unfortunate that you didn't find the games interesting. I consider them a very specific taste myself, like ska music.

It's a bit complicated, but Pian in TK4 is female and most often referred to as Mocha's older sister. However, she is also married to Momo. Since Momo is the who gave birth to their children, Pian is called the husband in a few scenes.
However, it looks like there is some inconsistency and it gets mixed up sometimes.

I've uploaded a slightly changed version of Towelket 1 - the game should now run without having to install the RTP and the battle strings display without any leftover Japanese characters (I ran a check with vpgerson's rpgrewriter program and there aren't any non-ascii characters left in the script now. The brackets are actually special symbols). The script is otherwise nearly identical, I intend to check it for errors at some later point.

It's really easy to get stuck there. I don't think you can soft lock the game but there's not much guidance on what to do. As I recall, to move forward you need to restore Conchelle's memories, talk to the surviving Conchelle robot on Earth, and listen to Momen's recording. If you've done all of that try going back to Armstrong's room and talking to her and listening to the recording again.

To enter chapter 7 you have to
- retrieve Conchelle's memory from the yellow planet
- find "Memories of the Past" in Kachikachi city
- show "Memories of the Past" to Arm and retrieve the screw
- return to the satellite

apparently the whole chapter 6 sequence after you start at the satellite goes like this:
1. install arm's chip from Pucchi's body, startup Conchelle and go into space
2. visit the yellow planet and obtain "Conchelle's memory"
3. Go to Earth and Scrap City. Enter Momen's lab and have Arm investigate the machine in the left room, she will say "transferring data"
4. Now you can go through the rail tracks to Kachikachi city. Once there move up the right ladder and enter the nearest building.
5. Talk to the white Conchelle and follow her into the garden room, keep talking to her until you receive "Memories of the past" and the message says "maybe I should show it to Arm?"
6. Return to Arm, show her the memories, after the scene make sure to grab the screw on the ground
7. Return to the satellite, interact with the glass case to insert "Conchelle's memory"
8. If you've done everything right, you'll see Pucchi Arm standing here and can go to chapter 7. (see pic)

Afaik there are two scenes that are optional: talking to Kerbas while you control Arm, and hearing Momen's recording on the table.

Then wouldn't it be better to just change all instances where she's referred to as a male to female? It would certainly make things less confusing. Feels like she was written as a guy as first, but was changed to a girl mid development but the early dialog wasn't edited to reflect that change.

Well, we'd then be changing the original script deliberately to make it fit a setting for the sake of convenience, even though we don't know if it's written like that on purpose or if it was an accident. Ideally, we would need to ask kanao what's their stance on this. With some luck we might get an answer. But when you work in a translation, you can't just casually change things like that just because the author wasn't explicit enough or made a mistake - you'd be changing on a whim how the target public will experience the game to make it fill your idea of what they need, instead of letting them choose for themselves what to believe. Unless, of course, the author themselves give the ok or something.

Honestly though, the confusion is part of the towelket experience.

while the individual details are a bit hazy, what's clear is they wanted to invade the domain of the moon goddess, and they seem to succeed as Zucche is found where the imperial princess was in 3. I think the author wanted to player to draw his own conclusions, my view is that Zucche wanted revenge for his empire being defeated over and over in the previous parallel worlds. That and he wanted to rebel against the goddess and her minions (deities or goddesses), since he apparently wouldn't be able to keep his free will and wanted to go down fighting. A "better to reign in hell than serve in heaven" kind of affair

I've cleared the game. I won't go into the plot for obvious reasons but I see why this one didn't get a demo while the first two did. You'll be completely confused right from the start if you didn't play the other two because it expects that you already played them. It's not like the Towelket series where playing in production order is recommended but not needed. If the chart gets updated with it then it needs to be mentioned that the Yorumorukimiri series is explicitly meant to be played in sequence.

What I can say about the plot that isn't a spoiler is that this time around it focuses on the Pons and the Fish Hats working together. Even the Fish Hats that only had bit roles in previous games like Arieair and Elegy get a good amount of screen time.

6 was rushed and it shows, but the beginning and end are really good, also you want to meet best girl Warawau.
4 is really funny and probably has the best party interactions of all the previous games (dove sisters best girls), but you absolutely need to play 3,2,1 and 6 to fully get it. Why the autor isn't fond of it? I'm guessing the ending, it isn't bad, but I understand why she would be dissatisfied with it.
Fury is madness.

Also yeah now that I think about it, it does remind me of Houseki no kuni, how did I never made the connection before.

>I wonder how soon the translation of Warau Warawau will be ready…
Every day I say "I will seriously work on this and finish it within a month" and every day I remember I started TK1 in like 2008 and finished it when, 2014 or something? Then I remember it's 2022 and 2014 was 8 years ago.
>if the translator will return to the series, because I haven't seen a major update in a long time.
Back when I started I thought "I'm going to do the VN one next" (Yoru no Umi). I know now that that is literally never going to happen given my ability to stay focused on translating anything longer than a manga chapter.

>>6386
As far as progress, I've probably translated like 200 out of the 300 or so maps that actually have text in them, and should probably start having someone double check them because sometimes I go back and wonder what I was thinking while I make fixes. My short term goal is to check and upload a version in translation for the sake of an off-site back up, even if not editing. Probably sometime this month unless I get distracted.

Now that I check, it was 2015, only 7 years ago and 7 years after 2008. If I hurry, I can be on par.

Probably the funniest game in the series, that fucking roar in the Ponpe rape scene that comes out of nowhere, but still, pretty lighthearted compared to the rest of the games. Also an actual happy ending.
The auhor really loves to reference towelket 2 in the latter trilogy, can't blame her, it's probably her best work storywise. Talking about 4, 5, and 6 I still prefer 4, the party interactions are just way too good, the exploration aspect is nice even if barebones, also the combat is little more fleshed out with status effects and stuff. Oh also the lore, 4 is basically the culmination of the series and the way it references past games as myth and legends is just perfect.

So I played Sora Kara Kuru Otome Bakudan and you know what? It sucked, I can see why Kanao wiped it out from the face of the earth.
It starts so good and then wastes time rehashing Gaugau's bride. When you finally go back to the main story it just ends. It's actually pretty funny how rushed the finale is. The heroes literally speedrun the final section and then it just ends, when I saw the "Oshimai" in the screen I though it was a joke, but no, the game had actually ended.

Since it has been a little active around here lately I will ask.
You see I've been using gpt4 to translate the games that haven't been traslated yet, I basically made a pipeline that let me translate without getting spoiled and the results were pretty good, way better than using Deepl. Thing is I relied on RPGRewriter to extract the StringScripts, which is fine for RPGMaker2003, but now it turns out that the next games are done in RPGMaker MV. Is there a similar tool for RPGMaker MV games? A tool that let's me extract the text from a map, translate it and then just udpate it the original file? So far I found Translator++, but its not what I was looking for, also some functions are paywalled. I could code a tool, but I really don't want to spend time understanding MV's file structure.

I recently played 6 again, and I think it's pretty enjoyable. The start it's very strong, and so it's the ending, I kinda like how everything goes to shit after they open Warawau's heart. My only real complain is the middle, it really feels like it's just going through the motions and worse, the party dialogue its not even funny, most jokes are just "wow it sure its cramped here", but I did like Nekoashi-konbu's backstory and the blind girl.
Anyway Sora Kara Kuru Otome Bakudan is way worse, it starts on space with a lot of potential for what's about to come, then it shifts to the earth with a totally diferent cast and it's just boring all the way, like I said it's literally just Gaugau's bride. When you finally go back to space the plot suddenly speeds ups and everything gets resolved in the most boring way possible and then it's just ends. The game is 4 hours long, and yet the towelket 5 section feels like an eternity. And I did like towelket 5.

 No.6594

>>6593
I haven't played Sora Kara Kuru Otome Bakudan yet, so I can't really compare the two games, but if it's worse than 6 that must be something.
I do agree that 6 starts strong and promising, but the middle of the game and even the ending really ruins it.
For example I love how Waruwau's psychopathic personality is written and the "Shocking" scenes with her are really something, but the game kinda just ignores that she's supposed to be a crazy bitch and she just sits around for the entire middle of the game and then only at the very end the game is like "Oh yeah she's supposed to be a psycho". I can see that Kanao had some interesting plans for Towelket 6 but just dropped them on their head.
That said I still do appreciate Towelket 6, mostly because you can see that Towelket 4 took a lot of the interesting ideas from Towelket 6 (Ex. Being able to talk to party members in maps) but refined them heavily so they're a lot more enjoyable.

It's not something I can say with complete certainty but I feel like the only reason that game was made was to flesh out Hemiola but Kanao probably lost interest in it and tried again in Yorumorukimiri which was a game that had a lot more love put into it. A hell of a lot considering how much longer it is compared to every game before it. Hemiola before that game is probably the blandest of the Fish Hats since he usually gets offed the moment he shows up, Hemiola after it is probably the most developed Fish Hat in the series.

I just finished playing through Wonder Girl! Nekoashi Otome and the game is really amazing. At first I felt like it was kind of middling for a Towelket game and just going to be a big joke game like Towelket 5, but the game keeps getting better overtime and by the end it feels like a really good story. It handles its serious moments very well despite being such a goofy game most of the time. I have to give props to the translator for translating it.

That said I want to talk about some heavy spoiler content:
So who is the 9th maiden bomber? At the end of the game there is a sign that says "Current maiden bombs: 9
So the obvious 7 starting ones are Wriggle, Present4u, Samurai Mama, Lotsofsocks, Coughcough, Little Miss Prayer and Ricecake. Then the final boss refers to Master Green Tea as a failure and there's some signs that hint at her being a Maiden Bomb so she's number 8, but who is number 9?
I'm honestly really not sure who number 9 is because it feels so up in the air that it could be a lot of different characters. It could be the Ms.Wriggle you fight at the end as if she's a different character than the normal Ms.Wriggle possibly, but then what happened to the normal Wriggle? I almost want to say it might be Nekojita because of how well she knows him, his past as an awakened being, and because "Cat ear fluid" is thrown at you so much at the end of the game but he's male so I have no idea.

So I started playing Yorumorukimiri, and I gotta say that it's really good so far. I played it for 3 hours straight.
Kanao's writing has improved a ton, the characters feel like actual people instead of just vessels for jokes (not that I mind that). I'm very intrigued about the different factions, characters and mysteries so far. I just hope it stays as good.

I ended up beating it. Honestly before playing the game and for most of the first part of it it didn't feel like Towelket at all. Maybe Shippoutachi no Kizuna during Tantanuki's parts but not Towelket. After a certain point though I instantly changed my mind and thought "I get why the name change happened. This is 100% Towelket." Thought it was pretty good overall. I'd put it above most of the other Towelket games except for 2 and 1. If we're talking everything that Kanao made though I'd probably put it around upper mid. Not as good as the best but still worth playing.

Apparently it released somewhere between late 2018 or early 2019.
In my opinion the setting/tone for the game is really interesting, but it falls off pretty hard after the 2nd chapter. It feels like a game with a lot of lost potential. Maybe that's why it was removed from the store at some point. It's a shame too because Okappa is very cute in this game.

I feel like uploading it is a little taboo since it's supposed to be a paid game, but if it's not even available for purchase then I guess it's a much more gray area. If you go out of your way to find a group of Towelket nerds you might be able to find a copy.

Decent Towelket game but kind of middling compared to some of the better games in my opinion. The world building is cool but I feel like the game didn't spend enough time letting us get familiar enough with the characters to get to know them, which means it's a little hard to feel impacted by how the story affects them. Okappa herself does get a lot more attention though and I feel like her story is overall stronger than it is in Oni Magetsu's, but that's mostly just because Oni Magetsu kind of drops the ball.

I'm currently going through Towelket 1 fixing all the problems with that translation. I'm probably just 1/3 in, and there's going to be a bit of editing proportional to how much feedback I get from people interested in proofreading, but we're going to get there eventually. I also plan to revisit Towelket 2 to fix a couple of things that were reported too, but that will have to wait until I'm satisfied with TK1. So, on that note, if there's anything you guys have noticed with the patches, please feel free to document errors and/or awkward english and post it in any format you like.

On other news, there's also ongoing work in another title, so stay tuned for more news.

Have this shitty meme I made after playing Dekapari.

Lasagna was the best part of Dekapari and Dekapari Lasagna is the best Lasagna.

For those curious about the novel, I just finished it today. I can say that I didn't like the first part. The style felt like was trying a bit too hard going for the cutesy effect of Towelket before pulling the twist. It's not particularly bad, it just felt a bit overdone. After the events kick off and the book reaches Momen's arc, it pretty much normalizes as what you'd expect.

In regards to character portrayals, I feel they were well portrayed. Considering they're all 12 yo's, I feel the writer did a good job at keeping them within the bounds of what you'd expect a kid to say or what they would act like. Other characters like Momen, Arm-tan and the robots also serve as a good counter-balance to the innocence of the main trio.
The book is pretty much Towelket 1, so in that regard I think the book delivered graciously. It doesn't deviate from the original plot, and the elements not present in the original are introduced in a relatively natural manner (and this also isn't overdone). Do note that these elements are small details, so they don't really feel out of place in the grand scheme of things because whether they are there or not doesn't really change the plot itself of the book (or, more precisely, the original story from the game that is trying to be portrayed). There's one addition that I didn't like though, and that is that Chun didn't become Jesus after the game ends, since Moochasu never bumps into it in this iteration, and Chun effectively never does any hyper dimensional travel, nor retains the memories from everything that happened in the previous iterations.

All in all, I'm not sure how many of these additions are personal, free interpretations from the writer, and how many of these may have been discussed with Kanao and introduced in the book since they weren't mentioned in the game. And aside from this, there's not really much that you would be missing if you played the game already. If anything, these additions feel like small details that the writer put into the novel to explain events that may be small "plot holes" (e.g. in the book, Conchelle/Moochasu travel inside Arm instead of using a suit in space), or just stuff that wasn't even touched in the games but could be awkward to understand if you're being introduced to this story through the book instead of the games.

Overall, it was a nice refresher for the story, but I don't particularly feel like I would recommend reading it unless you really liked the game and want to experience it in another format.
