Wataru maps when! Going to the Planetarium and to the Depths are my favorite journies in the game, I really hope Wataru pulls through with the Rose Church. There's so much buildup waiting on what will be behind that door in the alleyway.

>>11335Pure speculation here, but seeing as most of his maps lead to menu themes, would this possibly mean that there's going to be an ending that involves collecting all the menu themes, much like there being an ending for all the wallpapers and another for the secret events/seeds?
Also, I'd love it if there were more areas to connect to this one. It seems odd that somewhere like this has so few connections.

※移動中は長押し判定が成立しないように変更。これで長押し周りのすり抜けが減ったら嬉しい
新滑る世界と昼夜の間にあるハシゴ(MAP611)のみ、
長押し動作でのすり抜けが減ったかを確認する為に、あえて長押しに関する対策をしていません。
※壁紙No.149を壁紙制作者さんの要望により差し替え
※デバッグ中に限り、自販機EVでいくら入れたかの表示演出を追加。使用ピクチャIDは41～47です
百聞は一見にしかずという事で入れてみました
－現在は使用されていない古いコモンイベント「0066:旧:ｼｽﾃﾑ並列停止」「0067:旧:ｼｽﾃﾑ並列停止解除」を削除しました。
間違えて使われるとややこしい、私や誰かがうっかり間違えそう、というのが主な理由です
・MAP191 私用デバッグルームのエレベーターの移動先を共有部屋のみに変更
※MAP141 スロットゲームのプレイ料金と払い戻しの金額調整
・MAP192 ペンギンゲームにバグ演出を追加
＋MAP614,615,616,617 滑る世界を追加、以前の滑る世界も一応残ってます
要素的には以前とほとんど変わっていません
また、訪問判定は614,615を144と同じ場所の扱い、616,617を146と同じ場所の扱いにしています
◇×MAP199 滑る箱上にあるハシゴに下から接触するとイベ中動作禁止になるバグを修正
◇※MAP172 うろつき邸K部屋の上部にあるモノを文字イベントのアリナシ関係なく表示するように巻き戻し
ついでに画面下部にも模様を追加
※MAP172 うろつき邸K部屋 行ったことがない繋ぎ部屋へは行けないように変更
（どの繋ぎ部屋にも行ったことがない場合は強制で「赤街灯」になります）
（行けない場所がある場合は移動先が偏ります、FF6の獣ヶ原みたいな感じで）

>>11460※A bug report for a transition in the MAP611 ladder.
※A replacement of wallpaper (No. 149) at request of the author.
※In the debug room, a sign to display the amount of input needed [NT: money, I'm guessing] was added in the vending machine Event.
A picture is worth more than a thousand words.
- Currently unusued old events ("0066: Setting of Old system", "0067: Cancellation of setting of old system") were eliminated.
The reason is simply so nobody triggers it by error.
・ I changed the joining of rooms at the other side of the elevator in my own personal debug room (MAP191).
※MAP141 Adjusted the fee and refund for playing in the slot game.
・MAP192 Added a note about a bug in the penguin game.
＋MAP614,615,616,617 Added a slip transition, but didn't change any element left on them.
Also, calling variables on map 614, 615 take to the same map as 144, and 616, 617 do that with 146 too.
◇×MAP199 Fixed the bug that prohibited to realize any action when touching the transition box above the ladder from the southern side.
◇※MAP172 The alphabet event of the thing in the northern part of K's room in Urotsuki's residence that pointed to a nonexistent unrelated indication was rewinded.
While I was at it, I also added a pattern in the lower part of the screen.
※MAP172 (K's room in Urotsuki's residence) In order not to go to the connecting room, a stop cone was added.
(In case there's a marked room where you couldn't access, it will display a red street light.)
(If there's a place you can't access, it will bounce you back like in FF6).
The last part is a suggestion on how to handle dev stuff.

+Map0693 Dream Book Storage… Book added - Expanded - Event added (Accessing the delimited place with the butterfly is random**. I thought that reading the book was a little too easy. The fox reacts to one of the effects).
+Map0697 Higanbana… Added event (It triggers if you read a certain book in the Book Storage, or use a certain effect…).
#Map0698 Confetti… in case being caught is avoided
it is there. There are no bugs so be careful.
※Map0699 Constelation… changed BGM (Sorry for doing it over and over again. I can't find something fitting…).
+Map 0711 Butterfly… added a destination (Light blue, white).
※Map0712 Red sky cliff… I changed the events a little.
+Map0713 Firefly… I added a bit of a sense of seasons.*** (Activates when a condition of certain effect is readed).
+Map0714 Time gap… added a book.
+Map0715 Talisman of the 8th note… added a butterfly (Effect required).
+Map0716 Small room… map added (the appearance changes randomly).

Download Japanese rpgmaker2000 rtp from the main site (and all the others including English 2003, XP, VC and Ace)
Downloaded applocale.
1. Installed applocale using cmd with admin privs. command is as given on instalation instructions
2. Used applocale (with admin privs - you gotta look for the exe in the windows folder and make a shorcut) to install the Japanese rpgmaker2000 rtp (and all the other jap ones)
3. Used applocale to extract Yume 2kki form it's exe.
4. Use applocale to play the game and make a shorcut
Now I'm trying to see if I can make papplocale (that msi the replaces applocale by letting open an exe with jap locale through a right switch) work so I don't need to make a shortcut every time I want to play a Jap game. Seems to actually replace applocale which I'm not sure if I want it.

>>11856Translator OP speaking! Nothing but low sodium levels on my end. ^^ b I was for a time quite salty about spelude's decision to go bananas with conducting maintenance on, like, *all* of his content over the last few months. (I still haven't reached Innocent- and Fantasy Libraries~) kuraud's and yeris's fixes weren't nearly as intrusive as his.
You seem to have mistaken my sarcasm for salt. I feel like the only player who doesn't exalt wataru like WOAH. He's definitely a top-notch talent, but one ought to be mindful of the contributions of others (especially those who headed the project!).
(Though admittedly I too now feel like punching a certain pink catgirl in the dev room….)

According to wiki, using the computer in the Warehouse will take you to either the Green or Blue Binary World. I've (painstakingly) traveled to the computer like 23 times and it hasn't taken me to Green Binary once. Is this a bug or is my luck just really that bad?
No.11864

No.11865
>>11864Yup, luck; finally got Green after a few more attempts. Now the only thing really barring me from 100% is wallpaper #97: I did all the requirements that the wiki listed multiple times.

No.11872
>>11857Ah, whoops. Sorry about that, then. It's so hard to figure out what's sarcasm and what's salt these days. Some of those statements just felt a bit too wordy and overly-polite to me. Not that there's anything wrong with being polite. It's just in this day and age, it's very easy to misinterpret it as something else, you know?
I like Wataru's maps, and I am a bit disappointed that they won't be updating them personally anymore, but I'm not a rabid fan. In fact, I've enjoyed the maps that have been added recently. And there are some maps that are really out of the way (the ones that are just water, and are either colored or sepia-toned. The sepia-toned one is accessible through the Spelling Room, and the other one is accessible through the Ruined City, I believe) are nice to look at, too.
Now if the entire game wasn't going to be updated anymore, that'd be a bigger reason to be upset.
Of course… the game's pretty much complete as it is. Multiple endings, lots of effects, lots of maps… All these updates are just extra stuff. So I guess there wouldn't be that big of a loss if the game stopped updating for good.
Anyways, sorry about the misunderstanding. No hard feelings, right?

>>11993That's the developer room. You get access to it after getting the first four endings (the standard endings). The wiki DOES have information on it, but doesn't have translations for what the people inside say, so…

2kki my favorite. I AM Urotsuki.
No.12276
I kinda think wataru maps are way too overrated. They are extremely detailed and well programmed, but they're almost completely unnavigable otherwise. And there's practically no variety between them. They all look the same, just dark, gloomy ruins you can hardly see because of absolutely no lighting and there are fucking treetops everywhere keeping you from even seeing Urotsuki most of the time.
You don't even know where you're going half the time because the tiles aren't distinct, so you have no clue where you can walk. And all of his worlds are huge and empty with not much to do. I don't understand why the thread gets off over all of them because they hit a lot of the "bad yn fangame" points. Most are giant voids, you can't see what you're doing, and some are just giant mazes with no obvious things to do. The lamp world is even worse than the hell maze because of the constant bike disembarking to use the ladders.
A few of them aren't that bad, but a lot of them aren't the greatest. And the cosmic world, which is rather unlike most of his maps in being bright and colorful, while being intriguingly designed, is still just a huge offense to the eyes and ears, and you still don't know where you're going because the tiles aren't marked clearly. Why do people let the huge technical flaws go?

I liked oudn's earlier maps, but I'm also in the camp that thinks his updates made them feel pretty bland.
I guess my favorite map maker is 710? Their maps just feel kinda "squishy" and toy-like to me. I really dig the aesthetic. Though I do admit that an awful lot of them are just "diagonal walkways across weird ambient backgrounds", they still always have a large variety of monsters around them to grab your attention.
Natl shows a significant amount of potential as well. I'd like to see more maps by them.

>>12488Overall, I'd say it's even better. It's absolutely massive, it incorporates different art styles, there's a whole lot of different events, and you can actually track your progress through the game. Some folks might say the story is all over the place, but there's no guarantee that the original has had any story, despite what theory junkies would want you to believe. If someone said to me I'd sink 100+ hours in an indie RPG maker game, I'd laugh in their face. And yet, with this game, I did.

>>12276My personal gripe with Wataru's maps is how linear they are, how much of the music isn't mastered properly (which leads to audible clicks every time it loops) and how the traffic cones are used as part of the scenery, even though just about every other designer uses them only as a WIP sign.
As for why people like it, well, there are a few well done mood changes between the maps, and I guess it also feels very satisfying to get to the bottom of the Depths after stealing through so many obstructions. It took me 6+ hours to do on my first try, and even though I cursed the perpetual darkness and obtuse pathing more than a hundred times at that point, it still felt pretty good.
But then again, big areas that lead to roads blocked with traffic cones are absolute cancer. Those things should go once and for all.

Has anyone considered getting in contact with the japanese developement team of Yume 2kki and work toward releasing Yume 2kki on Steam for free?
No.12767
>>12762No, they wouldn't be interested and there's no need for 2kki to be on steam. There's not even a reason for YN to be on steam, actually.
No.12770
>>12767Stirring up interest for a new project is a valid reason. Also makes it more easily accesible.
Whether or not introducing YN to new people or a new project coming out is a good thing is up for debate, though
No.12771
>>12770First of all, 2kki is a project derived from 2ch, they don't give two fucks about the western fandom in terms of popularity or providing accessibility. It's like believing any western chan actually cares for futaba, when only the users who frequent it actually care or even understand/appreciate their culture and the rest only know it on name. 2kki is easily accessible if you either have been long enough in the fandom to know how they work or if you understand Japanese (it's literally a "click here to download latest version" button).
Second, they update constantly (or at least used to until a year and something, haven't checked since), and the whole thing is a complete mess for people who don't even know what the game is all about and how the devteam behaves. I honestly wouldn't even want to guess how many users would be completely confused by how to apply patches and why things break so often and why this map now looks different and every other single question in any 2kki's thread. It would be a nightmare and everybody would complain it's unfinished, broken and other nasty stuff. And if you think somebody would actually try to organize this shit out, then I have bad news for you.
Third, they don't really care for our opinion or wishes, AS the devteam. Individually, some devs are more friendly than others, and even reply to our questions when we contact them, but honestly their working is something along the lines of "add whatever you want as long as it doesn't fuck up, don't get into other author's territory, and you should be alright. Management is up to the chief(s?) who is(/are) on charge of putting things on wiki. Any bug? Report. Somebody will eventually patch it". This is extremely disorganized to publish anywhere outside the circle. If you want an analogy, 2kki is a huge oekaki thread where people contribute with drawings and even improve some made by other users, and eventually somebody comes and copy pastes the pictures and makes a .rar with the batch that will inevitably break and need like 4 patches and a few extra fixed versions because a lot of the pictures aren't displaying.
In other words, you're trying to contact a devteam who is extremely modular, disorganized, and doesn't really care for publishing in steam.

I went to the block filled world from the Nexus and I found a plate of cheese on the floor and I got really curious as to what the cheese would do if I interacted with it, not ate, interacted with it, but… despite this, my character (I was playing as Urotsuki) ate the cheese like a fat piece of shit and then shrunk down to be really really REALLY (really) tiny. I explored the area as a tiny tiny person for like 30 minutes and then I realized I was a fucking idiot and there really wasn't anything to find. There wasn't even a cool cheese-themed world or universe for me to explore and get immersed in. What the fuck Nintendo? I interacted with the blue bricks that took me there and I was normal again, and then I interacted with them again and I was shrunk back down. Does this mean the world with the cheese and blocks in it GREW and I was normal sized the whole time? I'm really confused, but, that doesn't matter. I was just really excited to wake up after that really culturally enriching experience and get back to my computer (just like I do in real life) and find some cool cheese-themed unlockables, preferably a wallpaper or a cool sliding puzzle on my game console. I was incredibly upset to find that there were no cool cheese-related unlockables in the entirety of the fucking game. What is this? Why would you do this? I was so excited, and then there was no cheese. I was thinking the cheese would just uninstall the game if I interacted with it, but then, at this point, the game might've just done that anyways, because really, I'm thinking about doing it myself as is. This game blew its load all over my fat ogre face and I'm really upset that there's no cool cheese unlockables in the game for me to enjoy. I don't like Yume 2kki anymore but I still plan on playing it (hopefully to find some more cheese in the game).

Just picked the game back up after about 3 or 4 years, then after remembering where the bike is I randomly stumbled upon the blue teleporter maze and managed to get to the wolf area. Awoo on wheels is still as cute as ever. Did any other mix effects get added since that?
No.12860
>>12859Yeah I recently picked it up again after not playing around with it for some time. I'm having a good time but it's taking a bit for me to break myself in and be more eager to experience the strange things rather than having anxiety over whatever the fuck could be next. Thing about these games is that anything could happen at any moment, and with something like 2kki that's packed with content, I really can't be sure what the hell is gonna be behind that door or what's going to happen when I interact with that one character.
I'm still having a great time though. I love the presentation and how the game just feels so wrapped up into a nice package; there are a lot of features and you can actually feel the love that went into the game, which is nice. The atmosphere is very manic and schizophrenic, and it feels really unique when compared to the other fangames. I'm looking forward to seeing more and experiencing more; there are a lot of areas in the game and some of them were amazing. I really liked the butterfly worlds, especially the blue and green ones.
No.12862
Is it normal for this game to give me borderline spiritual experiences nearly every time I play it? I always end up finding some beautiful world that makes me tear up a little and just feel absolutely wonderful because of the atmosphere. It's kind of hard to explain but I know the more hardcore YN players will get what I'm saying when I bring up intense atmospheres. 2kki has this sense of relatability because a lot of the areas feel like real dreams or even lucid dreams compared to YN feeling like very deep, deep dreams.
There's something about finding a sunken pyramid at the bottom of the ocean after going on a trip there through an awesome submarine ride. These are real places and real things put into a dream, and they kind of add this sense of "yeah, those things actually exist" and makes you almost feel like you're entering a state of lucidity in the game after roaming the surreal and otherworldly locations. I'm in the pyramid maze right now and it just kicks off your lucidity with an amazing little Yume Nikki homage, and then you get this sense of adventure and intensity as you roam around the maze.
This game continues to impress and it only keeps getting better. I already knew it was amazing, but this is insane. Yume Nikki changed my life and 2kki is actually surpassing it in some ways; I didn't know it was possible and it's so fucking cool. You'll have to forgive my sperging; I'm kind of in the middle of being wowed by this game as I play it so it's kind of being reflected into my words.

And so the rest of the team had to remove that library in one of the subsequent updates. I think you get the point.

Hey. I'm not someone who usually posts, but I read up on that discord, and the drama of participants who have left for drama reasons from Yume 2kki.
I've always been a distant fan of yume 2kki, and I come back here time to time. Every year I do, I see more drama, and it reads more and more like children than adults. How old are the contributors, on average? I assume the discord and "indie devs" amongst them are more or less just teenagers making their first games, the kind of types that hang around and discuss "creepypasta" and other such low end garbage. But I'm curious as to what the fandom's demographics are, both western and eastern.
I certainly hope the departure of those two people will make this better and cut out some fat in exchange for better quality. Yume 2kki has, last time I played, a painfully large ammount of empty areas with only a handful of things to see. I get that its a yume Nikki fangame, but its also a lot larger that Yume Nikki was. You simply can't have such a numerous ammount of areas that are mindlessly wandering to see 3 sprites, it's just saddening.
Anyways, I'm going to look into playing through this game again. Its great to see this thread again, for better and for worse, and see that it is not completely dead.

I dont know much about Galaxy, but I did like the factory a lot. Im kind of sad its gone.
No.12970
>>12968Most of her maps were curiously well received by the English community. Or at least by the tumblr fandom. It's weird how many people here adore their "kawaii" aesthetic, but in their home country they're reviled. Could be a point to be made about how most western fangames aren't normally as impressive looking as the Japanese ones, in exchange for being more creative with their ideas instead of following typical cliches.
In my opinion, the factory is kinda… inappropriate with the rest of 2kki. A heavy handed message about the horrors of the idol industry and a kinda meta thing about how fangame creators typically just reuse the same things as the original YN did in an attempt to get recognized before abandoning them doesn't really fit into an ambient romp around this girl's dream world. Maybe in a parody fangame, but not particularly in a game that's not supposed to mean anything at all really and is supposed to look pretty and make you think.
No.12971
>>12970Hey. Just read your full post and I had no idea that the factory was commentary, nor that there was a "kawaii" nature to her work; I don't actually know what is and isn't heres, merely the factory. I'm hardly someone for overly cutesy things, so I'm never really sold on "Kawaii". It fact I'm a little too western in my tastes, for a lack of a better term Im far from a "weeb" compared to the people who got me into yume nikki, and some its fan games (Spesifically, .flow is where I started).
While I agree hard commentary is probably inappropriate, and thinking on it it might be a little heavy handed given Yume @kki's more focus on an open nature it's an envitability. The creative process is one of abstraction of experiences we've had and know of. With that lens, the issue I believe there is here with the factory (assuming it is as heavy handed as I am understanding here, a bit of a cultural barrier and language barrier here for me on the topic of idols) is that it's not abstracted far enough away from the subject matter to make its origins too obscure to so easily place a finger on. Some ofthe maps Wataru did (Overgrown City is one of my favorite, atmopsherically) is a great example, because Im sure there was a topic or concept that was a little deep, but its abstracted far enough away from it that the subject matter is not something you can quite spesifically place your finger on, and alls that left is the vision and feel.
Sorry if this whole post seems nitpicky, I just rarely get to speak about the process of abstraction in creative matters, and I guess I'm overly excited to finally get to speak a little on this game that I've come ot appreciate.
As an additional note, the town itself is nice and eventful, but it looks god awful. It just doesn't feel like any effort was made in the visuals.

>>12971In terms of abstraction though, Galaxy's maps aren't really subtle. Robot clone things being processed on conveyer belts, dressed in bright clothing, made to sing, then destroyed really makes it seem really obviously about exploitation, at least to me anyway.
Subtleness is key in these sorts of things. Wataru might have themes of environmentalism and industrialism in his post-apocalyptic maps, yet these aren't especially overt, or you don't really notice until later on anyway. Compare to Galaxy, and her thoughts about abuse in the idol industry and treating children like dolls are rather forefront. Almost as soon as I saw the clones I immediately figured what she was going for, but got kinda tired of it after awhile. That's really all there is in the factory. It just can't really be interpreted as much else imo.
I'm not saying it's bad, it just doesn't work really great in a collab game where everyone is doing their own things. Often with far better graphics and a lot subtler. It feels kinda like beating you over the head.
Another thing is graphic quality. The majority of the YN fandom is dreadfully shallow. Regardless of what you make, they'll eat it up if it looks good and toss it aside if it doesn't, regardless of themes. The original YN was about playing through a beautiful void though. You don't interrupt the subtle immaculate beauty of an empty plain by throwing in a Vocaloid concert. Even if the message is good, 2kki isn't really a place to "preach".
I'm not saying it's bad, it just doesn't work really great for 2kki is all. I'd be open to a fangame they made exclusively because at least it'd be consistent. Despite the shitty art style.
No.12973
>>12963I do kinda wonder if the 2kki devs are hypocritical then though. Sabamiso's maps sucked and were pretty small, events were cheap jumpscares, and they reused all of their tilesets and characters for their own (kinda overrated and annoyingly silent) fangame Hallucigenia. Hell, Marginal Vivid Worker gets a great big cameo. Yet their stuff is still in 2kki and apparently(?) beloved.
Then again, they didn't contribute much before stopping. I simply assumed they retired, but were they fired instead? But then why keep their shitty maps? Maybe Galaxy and Spelude would've done better had they been on the project earlier? Technically both are better than Sabamiso too, because apparently Sabamiso sucked with music, whereas Spelude's primary draw was their sound design.
No.12974
>>12973Well, I'm pretty sure sabamiso contributed to the game very early on. The director was probably someone else and there really wasn't much standard at all, whereas now things have taken new courses. I'm fairly sure his stuff wouldn't be well received nowadays, while they were somewhat novel (or interesting, at least) back then, and they probably keep it because they don't want to just get rid of a fairly popular meme (or whatever the thing is supposed to be).
No.12975
I wasn’t familiar with Galaxy’s maps. When were her maps added? The last time I played 2kki was in 2013 or 2014 maybe. Searched about it on youtube and from what I saw, the maps aren’t anything special but they aren’t bellow 2kki’s standard maps. It is generic, like a lot of others they have/had. Why would they make such a drastic quality control for this one? The last version I played had maps with similar quality to hers. Did 2kki change that much.
I didn’t see any comment about an “idol industry”, only saw a singing robot factory, making cute robots and throwing them away when damaged. But that might be my fault. I purposefully read these things literally because I find them more entertaining that way.

The idol industry could be described as literally what you just observed about robots. Just turn that to little girls and it's an apt description of the darker side of the business. But I guess it's more subjective. I just saw it as an extremely obvious jab that felt just a bit out of place with the rest of 2kki. Too modern and specific. And if you want to blame the devs more, fanboys really hate it when you point out everything wrong with what they like. Dedp is pretty into idol music I think? At least, last time I visited his Twitter. Dunno how involved he is, but making jabs at the interests of contributors, and in addition to the bad art style and hot shot attitude, didn't do GALAXY any favors.
A big problem with 2kki too is Wataru. Note how EVERYTHING is compared negatively to his stuff. He's way too good. It sets an unreasonable standard. And I think he's aware of this and wants to leave but no one wants him to. Galaxy got herself in hot water adding some shit uboa knockoff to his gorgeous pink sea knockoff and Wataru was forced to tell her to remove it. I kinda don't think he cared, but the other contributors forced him to say something because it was his map. That event was there for longer than it should've been. And there's now nothing in his pink sea ripoff and I doubt he's gonna update it. Wataru is too good for this dev drama and wants out. But he's so nice he keeps getting pulled back in to finish his stuff because no one else is as talented as him. Personally I think he's overrated but this is just what I think and what I'm seeing.
No.12978
>>12975If you really can't see the parallel, you know nothing about idols. Watch perefect blue or something.
>>12977The main problem with 2kki is the way it's developed. A surreal game about isolation should not be made by a loose group of people all throwing their own shit in while communicating with each other and having stupid drama. This type of development is fundamentally incompatible with something like yume nikki. It must be the product of one person's messed up imagination to successfully capture the same feeling. Yume Nikki is a game about both surrealism and atmosphere/mood. You need both, so it's not enough to just put weird, disconnected, random shit.
No.12979
>>12978For me, the main drive of 2kki is that its a conglomerate of various experiences. It's more of a "hey dude we expanded Yume Nikki!" project than a remake with a different paintjob like the other fangames are. A dreamworld this vast, team or not, is bound to have some inconsistencies, and fangames don't necessarily need to abide by "messed up" creations from one single author to be coherent and have an overarching tone unless you're looking at something like LCD Dem which has a (potentially) very fucked story behind it's development.
Assuming the team wants Yume 2kki to stop being a proof of concept and actually make it have sense (pertaining to Urotsuki's character & dreamworlds, quality control etc), a lot more communication would be required, and judging by the environment it originated from (Japanese anonymous imageboards), I don't think it will be the easiest task in the world.
But in my opinion, Yume 2kki's lack of context and canvas approach is what makes it unique.

>>12973You may not like Sabamiso's work, but I don't think you can reasonably deny that it fits the overall art direction of the game leagues better than Galaxy's. Somebody liked Saba's worlds enough to make a wallpaper related to them, something nobody has ever done for Galaxy. I think that illustrates my point well enough.
As for Saba's retirement, he did it of his own accord after saying that he was sick of people calling all YN fangames "pakuri" (inferior copy, basically), which pretty much demolished all of his motivation to continue. This was back in early 2011, I think.
No.13011
>>129792kki's approach definitely isn't the way to go about it. A team of developers who are all on the same page is obviously going to produce a coherent product. Something like yume nikki probably wont get a team of capable enough people to do something like that though. Capturing that feeling of isolation is also easier if just one person is making it. It's going to be more personal. An expanded paint swap version of YN has little merit. YN was an emotional experience. That part is what really made it good.
>>12982What should it be doing then? Dreams may be illogical, but they do have their own rhyme and reason to them connected to the person having the dream. Also, more random does not equal better.

Whoa there, buddy, in 2kki's 10 year long there were only 2 times a geniune drama broke out (maybe two and a half if you count when people started trolling the thread after Sabamiso's retirement), and only one of them actually affected the game somewhat. If that's what counts as "drama-filled", well then, at that rate there's just no way for people to cooperate.
>A surreal game about isolation should not be made by a loose group of people all throwing their own shit in while communicating with each other and having stupid drama.
Oh wait, nevermind, you were talking out your ass all along. In reality, people on the 2kki team pretty much don't interact with each other, aside from announcing whoever does the next update. Beyond that, everyone just did their own thing with a vague overaching theme. Way back in the day, some people submitted sketches of their ideas, and those eventually became a sort of design document for the game. And, as it turns out, it's a pretty cool way to produce a game about isolation. You get the volume of content that wouldn't EVER be possible otherwise.

>>13225People acting like 2kki's lack of coherence isn't the reason why it's 2kki. Urotsuki is a true dreamer in the sense that the things and events she thinks of is random and doesn't have an overarching theme. More QA would be neat though.
No.13227
I don't think the actual dreams are ever truly random. It always comes back ulitmately to either something we crave, or something we fear. A concept that no theory builder ever seems to acknowledge.
I also do think there are overaching themes in 2kki, but they're certainly not self-evident, and other people may see other themes therein. I guess that's just the beauty of the game. Compare that with other fangames that are not so subtle in establishing their themes – more often than not they just turn out irredeemably mediocre.

>pedestal I don"t think YN is the greatest game ever made, but it did consistently make me feel something and capture my imagination. I would say it accomplished its goals. Even if is was described as a game where you mostly walk around and explore, it was never described as a walking simulator, which has its own connotations that YN does not fit.
>>13224So we can't have any more theme exploration ever again? You literally said 2kki doesn't need to explore themes because YN already did it well.
>lsd dream simdidn't do it the best
>>13225>there's just no way for people to cooperateYes there is. Making a team that is decided upon from the start and has strong communication with each other. Having threads and interacting with people and picking who gets to do what is a form of communication between people making the game, it's just a really ineffective way of doing it. You can't pick and choose what does and does not count as communication. Drama doesn't have to affect the game in a clearly defined way. The fact that there ever is drama reflects on the nature of the development process.
>And, as it turns out, it's a pretty cool way to produce a game about isolation. You get the volume of content that wouldn't EVER be possible otherwise.No, it isn't. People are constantly complaining about old areas being removed or changed in a shitty way or the older versions being better in general. That kind of development makes a meandering mess with no goal in sight. No vision to speak of apart from those, "blueprints". Also, quality over quantity. Sheer volume is not a positive trait unless you are just trying to kill as much time as possible.

>>13288Mosenite's update was a one-off event a few days after Galaxy's infamous 0.102d was released. They never even posted in the thread ever since. In fact, the poster didn't even have a name, the name was retrofitted from the first map in the update.
Just a hunch, but I think it's a good one – Mosenite was probably just n3/Koronba going incognito.

That is if Mosenite is Koronba at all. Not all the maps feel very "koronba-ish" to me. Perhaps the music, but they could've just been inspired by him. There are fans of his work who have gone on to make similar music to his own.

When going through the game's audio files, I noticed that Mosenite's songs are just like Koronba's in that they don't play at the speed they do in the game and in that they use a similar naming pattern.

Anyone else get kind of bummed out when maps get removed? I can understand GALAXY's maps because they weren't exactly the highest quality yeah, but some part of me feels a little disappointed because every map that gets added is technically a part of 2kki's history. So many versions are just going to be lost to time, and so many maps and events are too as a result. On the bright side it seems like we're getting more maps than we are losing maps, but I still can't help shake this feeling that parts of the game are getting gutted with each update. On top of that 2kki as a game is pretty obscure because you generally have to know about Yume Nikki and then hear about it through that, so I feel like there's not a lot of interest in this like there is for Yume Nikki content. A game like this means a lot to me with all of the atmospheres and experiences it can offer, so seeing those be removed is kind of like having those experiences go away.

I hear you, but as it stands not that much content has been edited out. There are 710's older maps, there are oudn's older maps, and there is one map by natl which they purged for some reason.

The rest of the game exists pretty much the way it was originally submitted.
Say, did you know by the way that at least two worlds in the game are based around legacy content?

>>13369I liked spelude's works, they were crude but not GALAXY-tier bad.
No.13377
>>13376Sadly, Spelude was better at sound design than map design. To be fair, they probably could've gotten some minimalist fanbase if they didn't have to contribute new maps every update. And then freak out when criticized.
Galaxy was an eyesore, yet Spelude did have some potential.
I kinda feel like they've teamed up and are collaborating with each other on the game again as the author "Kuroku". The too have impressive music in their maps, which are as empty and uninteresting as they are garish and filled with poorly done 8bit goblin NPCs. I wonder how long it will be until the DNA Room and Dojo are scrubbed and they're removed from the project? Even if they aren't ghostwritten, it does feel odd to have ANOTHER colorblind and lazy author with good music to show up on the project right after they fired the last two. They might be going for something, but until we see more updates from them, I'm kinda suspicious.
No.13378
>>13377Funny enough, Kuroku's first contribution even before those shoddy maps was an edit to Spelude's charset. (the one with the dick-shaped bunny)
That said, it's probably not true. Even without the criticism, Spelude was rather mentally unstable. Then after she retired, I've heard one of her lifestreams, she was literally freaking out like a cornered animal for an hour or so before deleting her Twitter and otherwise purging her online presense. I really don't think she was in condition to assume a new identity after that.
Honestly, Kuroku must be just a troll, or someone genuinely unintelligent. There's no way anyone can design maps that badly not on purpose, especially after there was s much drama in regards to effort and quality.

I revisited the depths today on version 0.106h, and when I woke up I saw a dark Urotsuki coming out of bed fading back to normal colors while walking out of bed instead of the normal waking up animation, and it was a bit longer than the usual too. Too bad it was too fast to screenshot.
I wonder if that's intentional, like showing she came back from the deepest and darkest parts of her dreams, that would be cool, or is it random or a bug something? Anyone else saw it?
No.13466

Yes, completely sure. I will try to record when I wake up from the deepest part of the depths next time.
No.13470
Okay, I've checked it. It's actually a bug and it's nothing new.
The Depths have a trigger that constantly fires and renders Uro's sprite black. Although the trigger for waking up should overwrite that before the sprite becomes visible, I guess sometimes the timing messes up and you can see the leftover of Depths' code running. RM2k is not the most reliable software after all.

It's so cool that this game is still being updated.
No.13603
>>13600As someone who knows nothing about Bionicle or anything relating to it, I think you're just over thinking it.
Even if there's an intentional reference there, as long as it's not deliberately stolen art or is being marketed, I doubt either side would have a problem with it. Besides that, I see nothing the looks like the Mata Uni stone and that thing itself looks more like a Haniwa. I do consent that the keys are labeled in the alphabet, but, so what? Homestuck couldn't come up with creative runes and the troll alphabet is just Elder Scrolls script and it's never been called out. I doubt something as obscure as 2kki would receive a cease and desist just for using a fictional alphabet from an equally obscure series Bonkle. There's other uncreative shit in the game as well, with a lot of the music being public domain, the Dogboa, and wataru's teal shoal and Onsen-san knock offs.
Might not be "100% original content" but I think artists ought to be allowed a few references to their favorite things. Besides, how else would we know about YumeBonikki? And if it caused any problems you can just switch to some other fake runic script instead. It's not hard or causing problems for anyone imo.
No.13605
>>13603Eh, fair enough. I recognized it as Bionicle only after some prompting, but now that I think about it, I doubt the Japanese community would. Someone on the 2kki wiki pointed out that the devs didn't take well to GALAXY's stolen content, so maybe a "wait and see" approach is better in this case.
I'm just saying that Lego's the kind of company that knows how to throw its weight around, copyrighting their own adaptations of other content as creative property. It'd be a pity to see something with a decade-long development history go south just because someone was being careless.
No.13607
>>13605>implying Lego gives a shit about Bionicle>implying Lego will ever majorly acknowledge it againI guess you can tell kuraud if you want, but like I said, it wouldn't take too much to make the reference more subtle. Just suggest that the author put more lines in the letters or something.
I didn't think Lego'd be a big copyright claimer considering they don't care about original properties, but I wouldn't be surprised given them being a megacorp. I know Disney and Nintendo are fucks about it, hence the removal of Pokemon Park, but that was made of sprite rips, wasn't it?

>>13628Wonderful question, anon! It is possible to contribute wallpaper to 2kki. In fact, someone from the Yume 2kki wiki was not only able to get their wallpaper design recently added to the game, but entire maps, too! (It's noildoof, whose stuff is being collected and released by shigurin.) I'm not clear as to exactly how they managed to get in contact with the game staff, but I do know the specific requirements for wallpapers:
- Do not submit anything you didn't make yourself
- There should be nothing in the work that strongly resembles any existing characters from other well-known series
- The content must be suitable for all ages; do not submit anything that would qualify as 18+ material
- The work cannot contain anything overly political, religious, or grotesque
- Don't submit work you know would make others uncomfortable.
All submissions must fit the constraints of RPGMaker 2000. Therefore, images need to be 256 colors (8-bit), with a size ratio of 4:3, which allows the image to be resized to 320 x 240 px without distortion. Images need to be in .png format as well.
I suggest contacting noildoof directly for details, since they're the one with firsthand experience on the matter. They can be reached on the Yume 2kki wiki (Fokkusu1991).

The thing with this route is that it landed me in what looked like Madotsuki's room, but all drawn with neon lines against black. Starting at the balcony door then exiting through the door to the nexus, it took me too a hall that I had to backtrack in to get to the school.

After talking with Mr. Wataru, we decided to discard ver0.110c and its patches.
As a result, the latest version of the game is ver0.110b.
Mr. Wataru said that he would no longer write on the thread, so he wrote it instead.
In addition, as for Mr. Wataru's production range, he wanted to leave an intention to edit in the change log.
Later, I will create a patch that will update the changelog.
In spite of a difficult decision, Mr. Wataru sheds the feelings of other producers and people who play.
I really appreciate it.
Thank you very much.

Hey, there's something i've been wondering for a couple of days, is the theme loop for Cog maze a low-pitched slowed-down sample taken from the theme 'Lounge - Evening Outside', from the DS game Clubhouse Games, or am i just bad at identifying samples?
So, here's the DS track:
https://youtu.be/xkDshFa3QK4?t=1038sorry i had to mark it from a 2h complete soundtrack, but it's not available in other videos.
And I think you're already familiar with N3-KtO
btw, can't believe how the site has changed, .flow and 2kki used to have their own threads, i remember. Anyways, take care!
hope we can all get out of this.

Speaking on the topic of preservation…
I've experienced more issues with RPG Maker games lately, but particularly 2kki, for whatever reason.
I used to not have problems at all, but a few times in the past few years new issues have appeared that seemed to require frustrating workarounds, sacrifices, or just ended up disappearing some time later. The error messages I've gotten have also never been enlightening. I've had it where the game is working perfectly fine for me and I play it every day for a few days, and then the next day I go to play it once more and suddenly it won't start.
I don't really know why, but my impression of RPG Maker games is that they're kind of unstable and fickle and require a strange amount of setup and awareness of possible issues to make sure things work properly.
I just worry that at some point I simply won't be able to play the game anymore, and I wonder if these kinds of issues are even something that can be solved by RPG Maker users or if they're ultimately the result of lower level parts of RPG Maker itself.

I haven't gotten far, and there are definitely connotations and nuances I'm missing, so my understanding of things is very incomplete, but I get the feeling he is known for having such issues.
For example, there was a response to the announcement of the removal of all his maps back in June that said something like:
"[…]
You'll be stuck in this negative loop forever.
Even if you separate yourself from this, you will still have your 'arbitrary expectations, arbitrary despair' and 'desire to erase' personality that you can't escape from.
Until your end, you'll eternally repeat this cycle.

>>14846Yeah, I really love the newer stuff. For a while I kind of lost interest in 2kki, but recently I feel like there's been a boom of cool additions. In the last few days there have been some big updates, so I still have a lot left to check out.
qxy's are definitely some of my favorites. Not only is the art really nice and polished, but I like that most of his areas have something mechanically or structurally unique/clever too. Like for example the sunrise in the Snowy Forest, the looping floor changes in the Techno Condominium and the different things on each floor, the downward floating in the Aquatic Cubes place, etc. Lots of other things. I dunno, his maps are just well-designed.
A broad criticism I have of 2kki is that some areas can feel like I'm just walking around some some big place and looking at a tileset because they lack interactivity, or a feeling of being physically connected to adjoining areas (even in a surreal setting I think that can be really important), or real purposeful *design* that makes them feel immersive or interesting to explore.
Maybe that's just the opinion of someone who's played 2kki a long time, for whom there's less to spontaneously discover. Or maybe it only really applies to a few areas, I dunno.
But I'm glad the recent updates have been exciting to me again.

2 - leave the glasses effect in the trophy room"
all i got for now
No.14995
>>14994I believe I solved it. Obvious spoilers for those who want to solve it themselves.
1. Do the first two steps mentioned before. (Not even sure why visiting the firefly pond is even necessary)
2. Go to Red Lily and chainsaw nine-tails until she takes you to the red cliff.
3. Use invisible effect to make your copy disappear and then jump off the cliff.
4. Head right offscreen and then down on the intersection and it’ll take you to the island in Constellation World and hopefully it’ll be unlocked.
As mentioned before it’d be a good idea to do the other Spelude worlds first. In my data I had already unlocked all the shortcuts and visited the guardian temple and Scrambled Egg Zone so I have no idea if that’s actually required.
Honestly the puzzle was a bit disappointing. Earlier I figured I could get back to the island without glasses by using the bat effect so I was convinced that was part of the solution and the rest had to do with the number 2 and the stupid number room that the Polygon effect leads to.

There are two requirements: a NotHaveItem check (most likely glasses, be sure to drop those),
and a Variable check. It checks a variable called 2976; it has to equal 6, if I'm interpreting it correctly. The only two npcs that I have found to change this variable are the Piano Girl and a pink npc in Vase World, after you enter the vase. You have to use the Bat effect and interact with it, and it'll warp you to that hand area and change 2976 in some way.
It's important to know that the exit from the island with Urotsuki's head on it resets 2976 back to zero, so if you end up there just eyeball out or wake up.
If anyone else knows anything, please post. I'm tired of this stupid shit.

Does anybody else kind of hate that effects are a thing? At least on your first playthrough, I think.
Because, I don't know if it makes sense, but it makes it hard for me to enjoy the maps I'm going through. When playing 2kki, I'm constantly just going around and thinking if I can find something on the map or not, rather than having a playstyle where I just check out what I think is interesting. First thing that I think when I enter a map is "oh I wonder if there's anything here to help me progress" when it should be thoughts about the area. It makes me disregard the immersion I should be taking in, you know? I feel like if there were no goal, I could focus better on the atmosphere itself. I think I'd like a dream exploration game without this mechanic. It doesn't have to be there just because the original had it. But it might just be me being retarded, I've never seen anybody else complain about this.
I also don't recall getting this feeling in the original, though. Maybe both because there were way less effects, and it was simpler to get them, also. Or cause it was such an unique experience at the time, that I didn't care about them. After getting used to the feel of the games, I guess it turns different.
Yeah, it's probably just me being stupid. At least it's still enjoyable.

No.15437
>>15432Yeah, that's all a shame.
I think they've just made 2kki impossible to experience completely without looking stuff up at some point, which takes away a lot from the immersion. You could accidentally run across a couple or so stuff by doing random things, but, the majority seems like you would just never find unless you spent a hundred or so hours doing everything that you possibly could. And even then, you would miss stuff. I guess you could say the original was kind of the same style, but, I feel like you could still run into the bulk of stuff without ever looking any steps up.
There's just too much precision in the things that you need to do. Why does there need to be artificial difficulty in a dream exploration game? It's just dumb.
I hope somebody makes a solid game of this genre one day with lesser mechanics of this sort. The more you add to it, the less it becomes. Keep it simple.

Talking about hard to find worlds, what's up with new innocent dream? Is the library gone now? Are there new clues or something?
And just my two cents but some effort in the game (like the process of that 28 story of the process behind Lavender Waters) is worth it; it's like a secret area, some can be accessed if you're enough curious while exploring. Then there's the dark cheese world, kill a ton of spiders to see something boring. Some worlds have great conditions and connections (still most aren't intuitive), others are absurd and illogical. It's so frustrating when you want to see 100% of the game.

>>15447>And just my two cents but some effort in the game (like the process of that 28 story of the process behind Lavender Waters) is worth itRight, but like you said, depending on how it's done. There should obviously be a lot of extra things for people who act on whims or pay enough attention, it's cool when people have different experiences or find stuff that they missed once they visit the game again. If it was linear and handheld you through everything that you can see, then I think it'd take away from the game. So, it's okay for there to be things that you need to strain yourself a little bit to see, or have the intuition for them. Or just by sheer coincidence that you get to them. All of those three feel satisfying and add to the experience when they happen.
But that's the thing, it shouldn't be too convoluted or you'll have none of things things happen, because almost nobody will be able to reach them in the first place. It's supposed to be a laid-back and immersive dream exploration game, not an RPG from back in the day where they purposefully hid things in a retarded way simply to extend your playtime.
If the majority of people who play are simply going to have to look up a guide to make it happen, then it shouldn't be in there. Pretty much all immersion is lost the second something gets so tedious that you can't be bothered anymore and want to tab out of the game. I've never felt that with the original, while with 2kki it's just incredibly often.
Anyhow, I'd honestly be okay with a couple of somewhat convoluted things in there, but more importantly it needs to not hinder your progress to get to the ending of the game. No effect should be locked behind any kind of puzzle or a thing you need to specifically notice, I feel like.
Take for example, the area where you get the Invisible effect in 2kki. You can only obtain the effect if you keep going in the direction that the NPC there is facing, four or so times in a row.
It might just be me, but, how many people are going to notice that by themselves and do it? Especially if they're the kind to have their brain turned on while playing the game, thinking about anything except what they're actually seeing.
Somebody could easily figure that it's just an area with nothing in it which you can't get out of, because there are a retarded amount of those in 2kki. That's for another rant, but, whatever. So, they'd end up leaving that area and not give it much more thought, definitely not the one that there'd be an effect to get in there.
Let's say that fifty percent of the people who play are paying enough attention to notice that they need to go where the NPC is facing, but the other fifty percent figure that it's a world without anything to it.
The latter group of people will never find that effect that they need in order to progress through the game, and potentially wander around the rest of it for however long, trying to find it without considering that one area where it actually is. Because that area was made out to be so empty, and you need to notice something in order to progress with it, you can't naturally get there by a whim or luck. So, after enough time has passed, they're obviously going to have to resort to looking up a guide. Which will just make their overall experience with the game worse. Do you think that's good design?
Consider this, if you were given the effect once you came into the world and interacted with the NPC there. Then you start wandering around the maze. After that, anybody who notices the thing they have to do would do it and be rewarded with a special sight for it, and anybody who feels done with the world could just wake up to get out of it. Everybody gets the progress they need to make, but the ones who look harder get more out of it.
This is just really simple and the whole game should be shaped that way once when they wanna introduce effort, with the farthest complexity of what you need to do being of that same example. At least in my opinion.
Imagine if every single special event that you see was just what you needed to do in order to get an effect. That would make it look like there's not much to see in the game other than what you're required to do, right? Not locking your progress behind things is what makes them feel special once you run into them, you didn't need to do them in order to finish the game, yet you still found them because you were curious enough. That's what makes the experience feel large.
The original already had the concept of how much effort you need to put in to see everything implemented pretty well, I feel like. From what I recall, it was just for the most part based on the effects you had.

No.15453
>>154472/2
You saw a thing, figured on a whim that an effect would connect with it somehow, and you got rewarded for thinking so if it turned out to be that way. No multiple or so dumb steps you need to figure out and take, just the pieces you connect together in your mind.
That's as far as I remember having to pay attention went. Not being able to make that connection didn't lock you out of the entire game and it's immersion, unlike 2kki likes to do. You could also get to almost any world by just wandering enough and acting on whims, it never got tedious in my experience.
So, TL;DR, it needs to be made sure that the things needing you to pay attention don't get in the way of actual progression, and that they don't have too many convoluted steps which simply makes them tedious. I rambled, but you might've gotten a point out of it.
No.15465
>>15447You're comparing qxy's world Lavender Waters (one of, if not THE best contributor to Y2kki) to aediorugap's Dark Cheese world (the absolute worst contributor to Y2kki, perhaps even worse than Galaxy.) It's no wonder. They're not even worth comparing. Why the dev team keeps aediorugap around despite their garbage "work" is beyond me. I was under the impression they had very high standards?
No.15467
>>15465That's the point, there's no balance between the world's puzzles/navigation. Lavender Waters path is an experience, Dark Cheese Hell is literally hell (as most conditions aediorugap's world have are too tedious -big, too bright, difficult/repetitive puzzles- and the effort is not rewarding at all).
I think using effects to see new worlds with good content/backstory is great. But then there's some creators (aediorugap) who create empty worlds with no feeling (or quality), there's lots of maps like that (this person has over 60 if I'm not wrong) and I think that's where frustration/discomfort should be directed to. But still, it might not stop you from navigating their worlds and puzzles are optional (not if you want to visit all places in the game). Maybe some people think it's fun? I've rarely seen that people openly dislike that creator as it happened with Spelude and Galaxy (unpopular opinion but I think they gave more effort in their worlds).
Anyway, I think I know why there's people who complain about game design. In my experience, the most difficult effect to get was rabbit ears (the whole process of Eyeball Archives makes no sense). There's lots of puzzles that are hard to figure out but I still love them; I think that's what makes a difference from a casual player to one that wants to get familiar with the game and explore more. I think looking at the wiki everytime I had a doubt was what made me feel familiar with the game's logic. But I agree with the other person that replied to me, there's conditions and puzzles that are just ridiculous. The whole process to complete Guardians Realm to finally go to a temple with shadow of little uro was…weird.
In conclusion, it depends on the world/creator/conditions that you may struggle a lot figuring things out and I think the process/reward influences a lot on how we perceive something.
Is this the moment to talk about how you can get lost on Yume Nikki the first time you play? After completing the game (it took me a lot), then playing it again sometime later, I was able to get all effects without problem. Familiarity plays a big deal on navigation/use of effects. Also, Yume Nikki is small compared to Yume 2kki, let's remember that there's lots of people with different logic there (some criticized for not being able to be like Yume Nikki).

I get the same feeling when I see the pixel perfect wallpapers. Yeah, they look nice, but having anything other than resized jpeg amateur Pixiv art feels off to me. It's not pettiness; there is a clear Eastern feel to the game that has been lost over the past couple years in particular.
I do wonder how much work it would be to de-gaijinize the current versions. It would be especially appreciated now that Wataru's maps have been re-added.
No.15498
>>15497As if Japanese contributors don't make pixel perfect maps too sometimes. In any case the only image in that anons reply that fits that complaint potentially is the 2nd one with the high contrast orange and purple colour scheme. It's also rather telling that the Japanese community has accepted gaijin map contributions into new releases. If gaijin contributions were such a jarring addition there would be greater controversy and perhaps a fork by now.
That said, there are differences in style that are noticeable at times, (though I personally think complimentary,) and for those who find it super bothersome I'd recommend making a fork instead of implying gaijin should be excluded from the project.

Dropping the Glasses effect is no longer required at all, thankfully. No effects are needed either.
There's also colored music note objects sitting at certain key points.
Now it's just:
1. Go to Tricolor room in the dream apartments until it's blue, enter the window & book.
2. Interact with the pianist, then cancel.
3. Walk south and interact with the hidden door to go to the lake room. There is now a fullscreen yellow flash and a note plays when you walk in front of where the hidden door is.
4. There's a yellow note in the lake room. You don't need to interact with the notes.
5. Leave and go Graveyard -> Red Lily World
6. There's a red note next to the lily that changes the area. Interact with the lily. Ninetails will be a chaser, get caught.
7. There's a white note here, interact with Ninetails.
8. You get dropped off in front of the long star path in Constellation World, with a blue note next to the path.
9. Follow the path. Poke the center of the four notes repeatedly. Afterwards, you can get to the room you end up in from the grey Tricolor room, and a butterfly in the grey room will take you to Butterfly Forest.
However, the event now skips the Fantasy Library and Cloud Floor got removed, so it seems that both Fantasy Library and Chaos World are inaccessible unless there's a new hidden method to get there.
No.15514
Allegedly, Spelude would fix the problem of only being able to access Fantasy Library once. And those worlds seem to be there only if it's your first time in Innocent Dream (on the whole playthrough). It seems to be just a bug, I think she answered that on the wikiwiki. But for now it's not fixed, even though she did an update shortly after making the Innocent Dream's method easier. Who knows if we could get to Fantasy Library again and who knows what does the new room in the Tricolor Room mean. Those worlds are my favorite from her, it would be a shame if they're deleted. Also, it would be nice to see the black rabbit from the green butterfly.

No.15539
Most of the community doesn't even know about this issue, not even that Rio is out of the game and why. Some part of the community that's aware not only wants to shrug it off but also to not let other people know it happened. Otherwise, the childish behavior of "don't edit the wikis to expose what Rio did", even though it was relevant to know about it (the wiki still promotes the Discord server); and, I suspect that's the reason they may be moving to another platform that's far more rigid and doesn't let you comment. Everything would be on the control of those few that hid the grooming problem, those that didn't believe the victim, that were hypocrite with the victim (how could one of them contact the victim to blame them of everything and publicly "support them"?),or those that suggested it was a "personal issue that shouldn't be spoken publicly". Not only the pedos are the problem, others enable them and let them loose on the server. How could someone talk sexually to other user publicly and nobody say something? They don't know how many minors are around and even adults feel discomfort with that; what's wrong with everyone? It may happen to more kids, even if the offender isn't a dev. Some people with power seem so rotten, they don't care.
I'm genuinely mad at what happened and the attitude of mods, the same that also censor the wiki and the server. I feel like I don't want to play this anymore, whether one likes it or not, it's tied to it's community. I remember that the game felt empty even though I didn't know Wataru existed and I was curious why he left; I think that if same happens with Rio, I hope people finds the answer and understand that those cute maps you like can be made by someone like him, but someone is out there to call it out.
Try searching this issue by your own means and see that nothing comes up. Spread the word! Many players don't know it yet, months later and still no clue.

No.15545
>>15543It is relevant because this Discord is the official one, managed by people that are on charge of the wiki and still promote this server on the page. It may seem like it "doesn't contribute to the game" but it's the same lame excuse the people on the wiki used to hide everything about this and tell people in the server to not talk about it publicly. Everyone deserves to know why Rio left, it's different from cases like Wataru or even Ruri. And actually, let's not forget that Lem is involved in this and it's also a developer.
Come to think about it, knowing this kind of information may warn others to not be naive around this people because they're someone you look up. Yes, those are players too!
Also, it may be relevant if it's decided to delete their maps. For example, it happened (kinda) to Galaxy and we don't even know why (but it had to do with her making weird fanfiction or something?). I don't even play online, I didn't join Discord but I think it's relevant for players that are in contact with each other. It must be done in safety, everyone is just having fun and it sucks that this kind of things still happen while everyone wants to ignore it. Somehow it makes you less interested in playing, even if the worlds are fun and interesting.
Other thing I want to add is that we may find relevant when a developer has been harassed or harshly criticized for their work; care about the fandom too, recognize when a developer is wrong even if you like what they do. Also, this conversation is the only thing keeping alive the thread and it's about an old issue.

Fandom wikis are notoriously difficult to migrate away from, since Fandom basically refuses to close any wiki so long as there's an active userbase (this includes people who don't make edits, and also anons if a wiki has that enabled, both of which are largely children). Plus they also forbid basically any promotion of alternative wikis. You have to somehow work in the shadows AND reach a unanimous decision. Difficult shit.
And even if you do manage to move out, the Fandom wiki will probably still be sitting there. And the thing about Fandom? It eats SEO like it's a buffet.

On top of the possible desire to make it big as far as developing for a YNFG goes.
Without any doubt, although the floodgates for Western devs in 2kki has opened up a bit more, with the increasing number of such devs on the team, with most of them excelling at what they do, it's very much encouraged for more people to chip in to Uneven Dream, given that there is so much room for expansion and improvement there.

No.15777
>>15775There's no one-size-fits-all approach to making tracks like these, it's mostly experimentation. Grab yourself a free synth if you want (Helm and Vital are good, modern, intuitive ones, back in the day synth1 was the go-to one) and play around with it. For best effect start with a nice wave shape, sine or triangle, layer a lot of different effects, figure out what the knobs do, follow your ear. Nothing intimidating, no conventional music skills required, just good taste and time investment. Get an audio workstation, something like Reaper, to put your sounds together in. Export and mess with the playback speed and pitch for added effect
This is the general outline.

but in my case i can just keep coming back to it whenever i'm not feeling to great, confident that i can find something new each time, without any garauntee i'll find an effect or make any real progress
also, if you keep getting into the line of thinking that all the maps are soulless copies then you'll be suprised when you play each time, since every map i've come across has been memorable on its own
