ResourceManager Version 1

ResourceManager is a mod for ZeroRanger that adds a custom ‘music pack’ system to replace all the music in the game with user-provided songs! These can be distributed as music packs along with a json file describing the titles of each song and some other metadata. It also loads palettes too! The system is designed so that anyone can create a music pack and share it with people, without requiring a…

Umineko Thoughts: Episode 3, Chapters 1-8

(but also more generally, i’ve spent some time thinking back over what’s been seen so far)

Umineko Thoughts: Episode 1, Chapters 1-5

Thanks to @eskay’s excellent ‘Why you should read Umineko’ essay, I’m giving it a go, and five chapters in and it’s already grabbed me. I’ve played a few other VNs in the past, most notably a lot of Kotaro Uchikoshi’s work, but nothing really of this length and presumably depth! I’m reading the Umineko Project version (but with the official translation), since I liked that art best and voice…
