My Eyes Are Falling Out
Witch Hunter Izana’s translation code is almost in place. Combat is still untranslated, and there are a few buggy lines here and there that require investigation. I will definitely be done by next week (most likely in a few days) at which point I will be forcing the testers to play the game in a language they don’t understand to make sure nothing breaks. Bwahaha.
The code for the translations is universal and isn’t just for Japanese, any language could be used. In fact, you could make a translation to English and just change the dialogue to rewrite the story if you really wanted. Most of the translation code also applies to RoP but the UI would need to be readjusted since WHI uses its own UI in C++. RoP will get a translation baseline “at some point” but I really don’t want to debug anymore stray \n’s at this point oh it hurts.
Oh and Koops finished a chapter 5 pinup, Hund is working on some scenery, and Urimas finished the last set of sprites I need for the chapter 1 update.
Concepts! Queen Viras the Storm-Eyed!
Queen Viras the Storm-Eyed, conquerer of the northern kingdoms and, more recently, speaker for life of the Jeffespeir assembly. She believes she is the heir to the long collapsed Arulente empire, ruled by a powerful dragon, and has set about conquering the lands that belonged to that empire. She is also seeking a dragon to transform her so she can make good her claim.
She’s been making good time, too. She started her campaigns at 16 and already has the northern half of the continent under her thumb. Of course, capturing the former empire’s home province of Trafal has long been the real prize, but the heavy forests of Trannadar pose a serious problem for her cavalry-dominated forces.
Despite her prominence in the lore of RoP, we actually likely won’t meet Viras for some time. Her army is present in chapter 3 but she’s busy conquering the eastern provinces of Soswitch and then Quantir. Will she be an ally of our heroes, an enemy who will sell them out, or someone who couldn’t care less what a bunch of so-called heroes are doing?
Once again, giant thanks to BlueLily for making these awesome character and costume concepts for chapter 3. Now all I have to do is finish making chapter 2 so we can actually use them!
Bonus Concept!
There are some, shall we say, “Left over” ideas. Rubber pony suits, transformations, alternate colors schemes, that sort of thing. Maybe I’ll post some of them. Like these two unnamed nobles who got gooped. I make no promises on this being canon but this is a TF game so it’d be a shame to just leave a good idea on the table right?

Continues to be broken. I may have to switch to a different service. Lovely.
