What is a "malapropisms"? Is a disease? Is a machine? Is a flying dutchman? :cool:
We are all "lost in translation", also the writers of the stories. Just my two cent
You have the internet, no? JK :giggle:

"The mistaken use of a word in place of a similar-sounding one, often with unilaterally amusing effect."

I know translation is hard. For having some of the best renders and plots ever this game is one of the most riddled with errors for a western game. All the errors really interrupt the flow of the story for me (maybe not others/most?), and any native speaker of English as an editor/proof reader would have caught them.

Edit: Updated for 0.1.3


I've made a mod for this game
  • Scene replay gallery remade
  • Edited some dialogue options where there are 2 paths so both are visible
  • Cheats button added to top right corner when playing
  • Best dialogue options colored green
Download: MEGA PIXELDRAIN
It's been almost two weeks - mod abandoned, or just real life and/or higher priority mods getting in the way?

Can you give some examples in the bugs report channel? Most of the game scripts were originally written and proofread by native speakers; only recently have I started using AI to write them. I’m still willing to hire a proofreader to go through the entire game, especially before the Steam release. The game scripts are not translated into English — they are written directly in English and are only now being translated into other languages.

How did you train the AI to write the script? Did you explain the lore of the game to it?

I just finished version 1.4 and cannot praise this VN enough, wonderful renders, fantastic animations and good writing in an interesting setting :love:(y)
I understand the structure and the development of the different paths, but I had perfered at least a little bit of drama on the Tyrone path. After he had fun with Lara and Angelica months go past and they never met, never had any conflict with the male MC ? I think it is a missed opportunity, but this is the only complain I have.
Keep up the amazing work T4bbo (y)

I may have confused things by using the word "error." That goes back to an earlier post where I was talking about the dialogue. I am not noticing programming errors. Game runs very smoothly in that regard.

I was talking about dialogue, spoken or thought by the characters as having what I assume are translation errors.

If you are still interested in that I could go through again and find some examples but they are all pretty much one-offs so I am not sure if examples of some would help you find the rest.

And if you are still interested is the report channel a discord thing or different thread on hear somewhere or something else?

This game is currently at v0.1.4, a very minor version number imo.
My question is whether you plan to have enough material to continue with these size of updates and eventually get to a full v1.0?
That would show promise of fleshing this story out a lot more....which would be great :unsure:

I’m using a proprietary model for the main story arc (it keeps the script logic and main variables in memory) and local LLMs for the NSFW parts.

Yes, put them please in bug reports channel.

T4bbo anything planned with the hot Doc? (Ms Wick) would love to see a session to corrupt her leading to some threesome play...
Dr. Wick will have big opening scene for Part 2 - Burning Boundaries.

After he had fun with Lara and Angelica months go past and they never met, never had any conflict with the male MC ?
This is also planned for first release of Part 2 - Burning Boundaries.
