Are you going to show off failed kissing attempts? I think each character has a different way of inflicting pain on you, but some of them are uniquely special beyond punching you.

UPDATE TIME! Today, even after clearing his name, Chorps' struggles are never over. He's been suspected of helping Mr. Yamada steal the Love Letter Set from Mr. Suzuki! It's off to the Worldly Desires Temple for him, in order to track down Yamada and sort this whole thing out. And when he gets there, the first trial on Chorps' path for Anime's love reveals itself! Characters Introduced This Episode Mr. Inoue A retired teacher who now lives in the Worldly Desires Temple cemetery. He seems to have issues with the current temple monk’s wooden gong. Monk Hoichi The head monk of Worldly Desires Temple. He spends all day going out begging for money. He loves all people, especially those that make donations. Bell The daughter of Monk Hoichi and a follower of the Worldly Desires Temple. She handles temple maintenance, and is concerned about the temple bell. Hasty Wizard A 20,000-year-old man with a love for jogging. Perhaps if you followed him you could discover his secret to fast travel and longevity. Mr. Frog A frog with a water lily parasol. Whenever he hears the temple’s bell, he knows that it’s time for a short swim. Agony Man A distressed man in constant pain. He’s not actually scary, but his stretching is a little unsettling. mateo360 posted:I ended up buying this on PSN. drat you Chorps. Good.

I think I might stumble into some later, but for the most part I haven't since I'm always worried about accidentally dying because some rando does too much damage.

So everyone just casually knows we're poor and doesn't mind saying so, we get blamed for any crime we get close to, and if we're on the street at night the police might shoot us with no questions asked? If this wasn't a Japanese game I'd think they were trying to say something.

I remember this game. I have it for the PS2, don't remember where I bought it. But yes, night time is a BITCH to deal with, especially with the policeman lurking about, and that other character you saw. >_< I almost want to replay it, except I have other games eating my soul at the moment. Ahhh Chulip, so weird, so funny, so....random at times. Looking forward to seeing how this pans out, you guys' reactions are great. Also, have you been checking the dumpsters and trashcans? I know half the time you just find poop, but once in awhile, you get lucky.

I can't decide whether or not I want an explanation of why all of our teachers are inanimate objects with faces, or if I want the game to play it completely straight and never address it.

okay making the dash a secret upgrade is kind of dumb, especially when the game is so heavily based around timed events.

If I remember right from Jamesman's LP, the game came with a strategy guide. Maybe it told you how to get the dash?

Zanzibar Ham posted:If I remember right from Jamesman's LP, the game came with a strategy guide. Maybe it told you how to get the dash? There is a guide in the game manual, but it doesn't tell you about what you get for kissing people, just how to. And where they are, and when they come out, and how much damage they do if you kiss them wrong, which could've helped me if I'd thought to show off kiss failures. It also notes that eventually you will gain the ability to run. The manual has a surprisingly in-depth walkthrough for the game, which seems weird for a game about exploring rural Japan, but I could not imagine having as much fun with the game if that didn't exist.

I think adding in the guide in the manual is a really good idea. Sometimes the game can get frustrating if things go poorly for the poor boy. Having that to fall back on can help. Especially for the times when the Underground Residents come out.

I actually remember seeing this in my local Gamestop back when it was being sold. It's kind of nice that it's on the PSN (under "PS2 Classics", which got a chuckle from me) and for $10 I may just pick it up. I feel like even if you are familiar with the game the sheer experience of it can make multiple playthroughs fun.

Given what else goes on at night around these parts, the vibe from Long Life Town and environs feel less like socio-political commentary and more like Silent Hill Lite.

UPDATE TIME! Today, Poor Boy needs to talk to the Monk in order to figure out his wooden gong problem, but he's too cheap to talk to us! They say money talks, so we'll put that to the test after working hard and kissing strangers for more pocket change! Afterwards, maybe we can start to move forward with helping to fix Monk Hoichi's shrine... Characters Introduced This Episode Chuck A leather loving man living in the hospital. If only he’d stop swinging from his chain… Yodzilla A reasonably sized monster with a love for destruction. He enjoys stomping around the park, but gets tired if he does it too much. Chopper A girl who likes spinning. Maybe if you could spin as well as her, she’d open up to you. Jamtrak 415 A train otaku. He seems to enjoy following the train schedules, and playing in the park. Snobby Tengu A yokai living in the cemetery. He loves to jump from gravestone to gravestone, but he has difficulty keeping balance with his large nose. Voodoo Doll A literal straw man, cursed to stay on this mortal plane. He vents a lot in the middle of the night, but doesn’t have too much stamina. Eggplant Boy A boy with an eggplant for a head. As he said, an eggplant is an eggplant. Simple, no?

I really like how each character has their own unique "voice" with a different pitch and even different patterns of gibberish. It helps distinguish them and make the world feel diverse. Also the temple music with the deep-voiced scatting makes me smile.

UPDATE TIME! Today, it's the end of the first story in the Love Letter Set arc! Young Chorps grabs everything he needs to solve the temple's gong problem, finding the clues that Monk Hoichi's father left behind. We also clean out the rest of the kisses available in our neighborhood, and maybe learn a little about happiness along the way. No new characters this episode! Next episode we'll have quite a few though! Scalding Coffee posted:Are you going to check out the forest in WDT? All I've ever found there is poop, I'm not aware of anything terribly interesting in the forest. If I'm wrong though let me know and I may be able to record something.

Oh hey, you're giving each Love Letter Set piece to Suzuki when you actually get them since the game automatically boots you to the next day when you give him any of the three pieces meaning that waiting until you got all three pieces is just going to waste time.
