I don't think it's a decision directly made by the dev to have the assets scattered like they are, it's more Unity fault on how streaming assets work (as far as I understand that is). But yeah, it's a huge mess that for sure.

Yeah, afaik the way it's implemented is actually good. Because that way if the game wants to load some small asset the game doesn't have to load a large assetbundle into memory. StreamingAssets are loaded on demand so loading smaller split up Assetbundles is faster and uses up less memory. Of course on the other hand loading one single large assetbundle into memory at startup increases initial loading time significantly and in turn increases memory usage by a lot, but you have almost no loading time in game and the memory usage stays relatively constant.

I'm working on fixing the English translation of the game, and I'd like to here some opinions on should I keep the word "nun" or change it to "sister".

1. The word "sister" is in the original Japanese title (シニシスター) , but I've found many examples of the word "nun" from western titles being translated to the Japanese word for "sister" in Japan.

2. Google told me the two terms "nun" and "sister" are mostly interchangeable in casual conversations, but it also told me that:

So it seems the term "nun" doesn't really fit the roles of a exorcist like Lilia.

Since I'm not a native English speaker and I do not live near any Christian culture, I'd like to hear opinions on someone who does.It may very well be that I find the term "nun" not fitting only because I'm used to the Japanese style of calling a woman in this kind of outfits a "sister", maybe it's totally different for English speaking countries and the term "nun" actually makes more sense to you?

I have a question about translation. How can be translated the whole title of this game? I mean SiNiSistar シニシスター, what does it even mean? Sinister Sister? Grim Sister? Sister of Sin? Any ideas?

And to answer your question, I think you should keep word "sister" while fixing translation.

I've uploaded the updated version, and I was wondering if you guys would like to give it another try?


Here are the updated password hints (original Chinese + English translation):

And to answer your question, I think you should keep word "sister" while fixing translation.

The Japanese title "シニシスター" can be separated into two parts: "シニ" and "シスター". The latter one is just straight "sister", while the first part can be interpreted in many ways. I'm not sure how the developer intended it to be, but if you ask my opinion, I think it's a play on words for "死にゲー" (Read: シニゲー / shinige), "死に" = die (verb), and "ゲー" is short for "ゲーム" = game, which is a phrase referring to hardcore games that a player is likely to die a lot.

The English title "SiNiSistar" is a transliteration, not a translation. I don't think it has anything to do with the word "sin" as it's clearly stylized in a way that can be separated into three parts: Si/Ni/Sistar. I believe the last part "Sistar" is written with an "a" instead of "e" in order to retain the pronunciation.

For whatever reason i was calling it for years "Sinistar", till i seen the title screen In Sinisistar 2 and was sitting there for like 2 minutes wondering why the fuck i never realized that.

Huh... I never noticed myself.

Well... totally not worth the time and bandwidth. This guy spent too much time on making riddles (that aren't even good) rather than actually learning how to process images properly. Jagged edges, missing transparency, and the portrait itself look weird... The skin is smooth in an uncanny way, and shadows are unnatural.

Very big boobs, but they don't even look like they're connected to the body. The idea of changing the wands is cool, I don't know where he got those images for the wands, but most of them are too long - looks like they have much longer reach.

Thank you for explaining this for me. After reading your post I found this on net:

In Japanese, "shini" (死に) generally means "dying", "death", or "dead".
It can also be used as a prefix meaning "dead" or "useless," and even as a prefix meaning "damned".

So if title is "SiNiSistar", then maybe developer while naming his game was thinking about something like this:
"Dying Sister", "Dead Sister", "Damned Sister".

Those "damned" sisters!

I finally managed to modify the texts shown in-game, Henry1887 has been a great help. Unfortunately it wasn't possible to replace two files containing the majority of the localization texts with the plugin, so I ended up replacing the files directly. I didn't change any of the translations yet, will work on improving the translation once the new version drops.

You know i could make a plugin that directly hooks into the games LocalizationManager to inject custom Languages. Since the demo of SiNiSistar2 had some debug files left accidentally i can look at the code of the LocalizationManager(probably hasnt been changed much since the demo).

Well... the reason I emphasized

"死に" = die (verb)

is to avoid this confusion. It's a verb, not an adjective (which would be written as "死んだ / 死んでいる")

"死にゲー" means "hard games in which you die a lot", not "dead game". "シニシスター" is the same, just a coined word created by the author, like many games out there with a title that doesn't mean anything other than the game itself. There's no need to really try to find a translation for it anyway.

It looks like shit. Chinese gooner riddler failed again.

That would be helpful, and for people who want to translate the game into other languages as well. (For that you need to somehow inject a font file for the new language also.)

Should be relatively simple enough to inject something. Though the fact that they use enums complicates things a bit with patching the code.

This might run really slow on a normal computer.
So I guess a gaming PC would be better.

Just lower the resolution. It's a pixel art game, you're not gaining much with higher resolutions anyway. I beat the game on a non-gaming laptop I bought more than 10 years ago with no problem. Surely I can't get very high fps but it's more than playable.

Anyone knows how to get the item that increases relic gain? Can't seem to find it, and it's the only item I'm missing (already defeated both the main game and secret boss + got the best wand). Thank you in advance!
