Alright /v/, I am translating an obscure as hell Japanese indie action platformer game that some of you fags may remember as "That boner trap furry game" from a little while back.

Which just so happens to require me to fucking learn a dead game engine with a generic as hell name that took me fucking hours to find. And it has no documentation for it that I could find so I'm learning an ancient Japanese masturbatory tool. Blind.

Anyway: as of yesterday, I decided to take it into my own hands and start translating the entire game by myself.

HOWEVER. I have one problem with deciding on a name for a stage:

"Matango no Sumi Tsutomu"

So, basically Matango Residence.

Looking into what a Matango is; it's probably the greatest named horror movie of all fucking time.

> Matango: The Fungus of Terror, Curse of the Mushroom People

So I ask purely because I am so caught up on different names: Which sounds best?

1) Mad Mushroom Manor
2) Mushrooms of Terror
3) Curse of Mushrooms
4) Mushroom Madness / Mania

Pic related; it's a sprite sheet from the game files. Can send more upon request
>>
I vote forA
>>
>>383384135

Thank you; the vote is appreciated.
>>
keep it as matango residence, put the translation notes in readme
>>
5. Mush-Room; Musky Monster Menace Manor (Mishing, Mashing.... Mating???)
>>
Honestly just go with Matango Residence

You could also go with the English localisation of the same movie. Matango: Attack of the Mushroom People

I was tempted to do that with literally translating into "Special Bear Force added to the character" and "Special dragon force can be purchased in town map"


Also one town is actually called "Afterglow Town" . . .

>>383385289
>>383385329

Sadly all the text is on sprite sheets. I wanted to go with the full movie title, but I need to keep dimensions :'(

Lazy coding is ruining part of the fun, but makes it overall easier for me. So, it's a good thing?

I'd just keep it as Matango Residence if I were you. It's a reference to something Japanese so you might as well keep it that way, no?

I suppose so.

Translating things like this is difficult due to needing to decide if conveying the idea of the message or keeping the title exact is more important.

Only problem with using "residence" is that in the context of being like a housing complex. And the level is outdoors.

Though leaving Mantango in the title might make people look into the meaning of the word, find the film, and expand themselves by absorbing more culture.

Also I have to try to keep all text in a similar form factor-- It is incredibly difficult sometimes, but I can't afford losing any information due to the sprite sheet cropping.

This is hard. Normally when I translate I have someone to verbally discuss these things with, but he's not here so I'm at a loss in my own head.

Thank you very much. To be honest; I was planning to do this for a while but I kept putting it off due to depression and lack of motivation.

So, I just decided if I keep saying tomorrow; it would never happen.

I will not fail this translation.

Just release two patches, one "localized" patch that keeps the spirit of the source, and a "literal" patch that keeps things as close as possible to the original.

Just do Matango Residence.

This isn't some obscure shit like "tl note: Japanese people always put on pants left leg first!"

If the player hasn't heard of a pretty popular horror movie, that is their own fault.

>>383388797

That would take so long to make...

>>383388996
I was going to set up a Twitter for it later. But right now:
- 2 out of a lot of sprite sheets done so far (ALL menus are directly on the sprite sheet; barely any actual coded text)

- No progress on cutscenes (not even extracted yet)

- Style guide for text has been established; everything will be consistent in quality even though I have to do pretty much everything by hand (If I had the money, I'd pay someone to do the text for me; but I'd be cracking them with a whip to keep it in style)

- Acquired the game engine used (Action Game Maker; aka "ACT Tkool" "Action Tkool", etc etc took me so long to find) and currently working on how to work through it despite no real tutorials anywhere due to its cancellation in 2011.

-- Contacted the creator (ザルク) in a hope to get a response about the project files for ACT Tkool; however it is doubtful due to a multi-year hiatus.

>>383389017

The "residence" part is just barely too long. I'll test it when I get to patching in the files then decide from there.

May also look into beta testers too, actually... Make sure everything makes sense and no UI bugs.

>>383391410
Yeah... I read his disappearance was around the time of a major earthquake-- but I saw brief activity after the nearest reported one.

I'm just hoping his disappearance is just from personal reasons; such as being a NEET. (His pixiv still states he was looking for employment)

--- I'm also fairly new to using 4chan... Do the captchas always show up so often? Feels like Hiroyuki just wants my money for the pass or something . . .

>>383382136
Hard to pick from the options without having seen the level. If the level actually features a manor, Mad Mushroom Manor isn't terrible.

Perhaps 5)Resident Fungi instead?

Uggh it seems you have to chop some meaning thanks to that character limit.

OP, I'm on a bit of a personal project myself! Trying to get the oldest English translation of The Decameron scanned and publicly available. There are already digital versions, and even a solid Project Gutenberg rendition, but I want to get a proper high-quality scan of a original since it pisses me off that there isn't a scan of it freely available to the public so far as I've been able to find. Anyway, I admire your efforts to translate this Hibernian grassfolding erotica into English!

マダンゴオの住勉

Actually going back to it; I think "Motango Lives" would be a better translation -- I didn't take into consideration of "living quarters"

I should take more breaks... I read "スピードアップ" as "SPID UP" when it's even read out loud as "Speed up". . .

>>383397024

THAT NAME JUST HELPS PROVE WHY THIS IS SO DIFFICULT. THERE ARE SO MANY COOL WAYS TO DESCRIBE IT.

It only has a couple hundred downloads total...

The pony is named Machina ; from one of the Machine Empire's neighboring countries.

What makes Machina a unique character is the fact he is the slowest and heaviest of the 3 main characters, but he has access to very high physical damage and can decimate groups of close up enemies.

Just his weakness are the platforming stages. . . But his upward direction air attack has his wings turn into helicopter blades to extend his jump horizontally.

(And somehow the developer managed a bulge on him?)

So this?

Sumi Tsutomu doesn't make sense, it's not a word
It's モタンゴォの住処, Motango no sumika
If you want to go literal you could use something like Habitat of the Motangoh or Where the Motango Live

すみか just means すむところ, nothing about mansions or residences

Of course you can spice it up in any way, there's no rule against that
I like Mushroom Madness
Or if you want to keep the reference why not use a variation of the movie's subtitle: Fungi of Terror

Oh cool, I was wondering when this was getting translated. Bought the game a long time ago when people were making threads on it since it was just like one buck. Too bad the cows weren't added in before the creator stopped working on the game. Still pretty cool to see it getting translated, and now I'm glad I didn't get too far into the game to spoil stuff that I wouldn't completely understand.
