WANTED: Final Beta Testers for Zeroigar
« on: August 04, 2015, 01:29:55 PM »
This is it, guys. We have a build that we are comfortable not doing anything else to and releasing...unless we find a mistake. For example, just the other day, we caught an ellipses that only had two dots when it should have had three.

Also, there have been some code changes recently that just might cause some bugs.

We want YOU...to help us check the final version.

This is not a huge game. We don't need you to play it super exhaustively, either. In fact, we can even share a youtube video replay or two so you can see the whole thing. However, we would you like to mess around with the actual game for a little bit in case you catch a bug or something. It's also important to us that you try applying the translation patch yourself, but we'll help you with that.

PM me if you're interested!

Wow super excited! How do we obtain copies of these Zeroigar test pressings? Are they downloadable or on CD-R? How much will they be when the finals are made? As I've only owned my PC-FX for almost a month, still getting used to the technical side of it...and barely understand the Japanese in the three games I own.

Stoked! Thanks!

It's just a translation patch, tex.  You'll be on your own for finding an original iso and burning a cdr.

I'm glad that you're excited!  :)

But ... it looks like you're new here, and I guess that you've not actually read many of the threads yet.

However, similar to my music collection, I have many of the same albums released on different labels, re-released, remastered, etc. Ideally I'd love to land an original w/obi spine Zeroigar, play it a bunch and THEN figure out how to get the translated version. So I can experience it the original way it was released and then actually figure out what is going on...similar to all the Star Wars movies hehe. Viewed the original three first, then the new ones as they came out but then watched them in their supposed "chronological" order (not the same order they're released)...I'm way off topic now. Sorry  :oops:  [-(

p.s. unrelated, I JUST bought Dokyusei 2 for 8 bucks - hope it's not too bad  :-k

Is there some reason that you're not doing that?

It's not particularly rare ... there are 5 copies on eBay right now, 3 with spine.

If you don't want to actually pay the incredible price that they're asking for one, then you can, right now, just download a copy and burn it to a CD.

You can play it on your PC-FX, just like an original copy.

At this particular moment I don't have the funds to buy the expensive ones on ebay and have other expenses I gotta deal with...Just weighing the options of getting Zeroigar really before getting one.

Thanks for the offer, but we're all done now.  :wink:

I'll update the main thread.
