Title: Necromancer finally getting translated!

Not only was it THE first RPG for the TurboGrafx / PC engine , but it WAS ACTUALLY GOOD.

I love how each enemy has its own GOREY death animation. For a game made in 1987 thats awesome!

I love how Necromancer each monster has a gorey death animation. In Arunamu No Kiba only the Bosses had gorey death animations and that was a 90s CD title. Not a 1987 Hucard.

Also Tengai Mayou Ziria has been in the works since 2009, scroll to the end

Legend of Xanadu II

I actually did some voices for that hack. Haven't heard from the guy in 2 years. Even found him and PM'd him on here... nada.

OT: Wow! That looks cool! I've played the JP version on the TG16 gamebox a bit and was impressed by the blood as some have said.

I thought this was you again. :P

It's not actually a Devilman game, so romaji is unnecessary.

Great news but it seems there's still a lot of work left.

You know what would be awesome? Sinbad on the Huey

I actually played it, its a pretty good game. You get Ali Baba prince of thieves in your party too.

Agreed.  I hope someone with the necessary compression skills can lend a hand to help finish it up.

Wasn't SamIAm heading the Xanadu II translation?  I know he's put that on the back burner since he started the Princess Crown translation project.  Princess Crown is pretty much done though.

I believe that the translating is complete and Esperknight is narrowing down the last sections of dialogue to be replaced. But real life and possibly other projects are higher priority.

Dude I wish it wasnt. If you look in the reflection you see me taking a pic with the arm casts on. Im so lucky im not paralyzed or dead. Rather be dead to be honest. My forearms broke the fall. All the doctors were amazed .

There is people that slip in the shower and break their neck


edit:
(Im already getting permanent bottom teeth by December. I have pop outs now, NO INSURANCE, costing me a pretty penny)

Xak, you are lucky to be alive, you should thank your lucky stars (and forearms) every day.  I hope your recovery is as painless as possible.
