Hi, I know it's been asked several times, but I can't get the game to load. I tried using locale emulator, ntleas, applocale, and changing the system language and I get a prompt for a Bad File. Any help is appreciated.

Downloaded the game but when I try to start it by opening the game.exe it just runs a sprite model of the main character walking in place.. can anyone help?
That sounds like either the download got corrupted or you have the game in a folder it's not recognizing for loading (usually if your system is replacing Kanji characters with generic ones for the folder.) If the folder it's in is kanji characters, try renaming it then running through locale emulator. Otherwise you might need to redownload it.
The game needs to run in japanese locale. Either change your system to Japanese locale or run it through locale emulator (Admin)
I ran it from the folder that was created after unzipping the game downloaded from this very thread... Is there another folder you recommend should create or something?
Well if the folder path is english (try also putting the game in root ie c:\) then it could be a bad download. Beyond that I don't know.

For me just changing time format(in addition to having set Japanese applocale) was enough, dunno if changing the language would have somehow not changed time format.
So this was the solution, putting everything in the Hard Drive root. Thanks a lot!
Good to hear.
So for anyone else with the issue, let me explain what's going on. Programs have a path name limit for files that they reference, usually 256 characters. Every character in a path name (using legacy naming format) counts for this. So putting something in for example "C:\Users\Name\AppData\MyGames\" makes up 30 characters before you even get to the program folder. Nesting something too deep causes the program to be unable to read necessary files and will crash.

to be fair you'd have to be pretty bumped to create nestled folders as deep as even 200 characters, unless you were deliberately trying to do that much hiding. even other files won't load properly like images and text format files, and not just executables.
anyway, seeing as that the secret character is unlocked only if you saved no girls, would that mean i have to start a new save file and do that on there? or would it be impossible since i already have finished the game with all of them rescued, and my base auto file (save10) already reflects that?

Nyah, all you have to do is start a new game and beat the game again. I had a "some rescued" and "all rescued" ending previously before I got the "none rescued" ending.

Hey. I haven't seen the latest version posted, so here you go:
The password is the name of this site, without the .to.
The changelog only mentions that both English and Japanese versions are now included in the archive, and that there's a small bugfix for some H-text specific to the JPN version. However, the previous version (v1.03) mentions having fixed the issue some people were having when opening the game without changing their locale. Specifically, I believe this means that it fixed the bug where you only see a single character sprite on an otherwise black screen when opening the game. That looks to be a common issue in this thread, so please give this version a try!
And uhh.. do support the developer if you can. I want a sequel.

Yeah, you're right that the game can now boot without having to change your locale to Japanese and no longer defaults to player character on black screen. Just tested this with my version and it's a nice fix they implemented. Also having both the localized and native Japanese games in one download is pretty cool.
Kind of wished that DLsite Play would notify me in some way that some of my games are updated. Literally didn't know about the fixes until I saw this thread being updated lol.

Game reminds me of Castlevania 2 for the NES, which I just got around to finishing late last year. Mostly because that game sucks, haha. This one looks a lot better, just from the screenshots and maps.
Your map is amazing. Makes me really nostalgic for all the Castlevania DS games. I kind of want to go back and play Circle of the Moon again. Dawn of Sorrow is my favorite game in the entire series, but I've finished it so dozens of times, there's no point in doing it again (it is fun though...)For anyone still having trouble, this map should give you everything you need to know (all item locations, etc):You must be registered to see the links

Damn shame their games are all censored. But the gameplay looks really good regardless, so I'm gonna give it a shot.
how do you do new game plus Oo? i got to the ending credits also what happens with new game + like what is transfer over anything?
After the credits you can save your game again. This unlocks new game plus. When you a new game you're taken to a small room with some robed characters in them. You can then use the crowns you collected to buy various unlocks like all gear, extra transformations, or invincibility. If you finish the game but not rescue any girls (might not be that extreme, hasn't really been tested) you unlock another character to play as instead.
