Re: [141128] [sprite] 蒼の彼方のフォーリズム ‐Beyond the sky, into the firmament‐ 初回限定特装版 + Maxi Single CD + Bonus [H-Game]
From the creators of the game that made student government and chocolate viable in eroge drama again. Comes a game that will make you wish you had cool shoes to fly in the air. "Aokana".
Follow Masaya, a cool dude that has fallen out of grace in the sport he loves in his youth and now will try to get in touch with sport by becoming the couch of the Flying Circus crew where he is the only one allowed to have a relationship because...protagonist. Learn the sport that has changed the face of the world that Masaya lives and that nonchalantly laughs in the face of physics, The Flying Circus. A game that relies on the users ability to have the strongest abs in the world because there is no way you can balance yourself in those shoes. That's why we want jetpacks or hoverboards in the real world, not flying shoes. If you are going to give us flying shoes, gives us the Iron Man suit!...Ahem. Follow this circus as the only thing this sport has in common with a circus is the ridiculous outfits that look like discount Cirque Du Solei costumes. Watch instead a sport that makes you wonder, "Damn, if those things malfunction you are fucked." But it also makes you wonder, why is there cars and planes in the world? Should that method of transportation be you know outdated by know? How can this people fly without hypothermia or freezing their ass off? Why hasn't humanity become the master race of the universe with antigravitation technology and instead is using this technology to do glorified sky races fused with flag football? Priorities. Back to summary.
Masaya becomes the coach of Asuka and the strategist of the Flying crew formed by the classmate, the kouhai that admires her sempai, the girl next door, muscle guy (Enough with the Masato knockoffs. There is only 2 muscle sensation. Masato and Kinikuman) and comedy relief sister of muscle guy. Watch as this team has no conflicts between each other and instead has healthy fun and adventures...This is kind of boring isn't it. I wonder if....My god. Look at their eyes! Is that guy wearing a bag in his head and drew himself a face with sharpie!?
Witness the stark contrast between opening 1 and opening 2 as opening 1 appears to represent romance and childhood trauma and opening 2 shows the real meat. If you do not have conflicts between your characters then how about we introduce a bunch of psycho looking motherfuckers that take this sport way to seriously and can potentially murder our lovable heroines. Now that is how you sell a game!
It's true! Sprite is so confident this game will sell like buffalo wings in the Super Bowl that they already announced that the TV adaptation is coming soon...days before the game release. To further the proof that the game is designed for adaptation, it is episodic. It is divided into episodes with outro narration of what is going to happen in the "next" episode at the end of each chapter. Sprite can't do no wrong! Except when they do like their previous game when they thought they could be like Key (in their second game, the audacity) and eliminated elements that made Koichoco successful in a sort of prequel. That's adorable! You have yet to make me cry in your games Sprite!
Aoi no Kanata no Four Rhythm. Masaya totally porks in this game you guys!!!!!
Community! Thanks for reading this small piece of writing I did. As you can see I am a quite the fan of Koichoco. From playing the demo, it appears that we have finally found the Bioshock Infinite to the Bioshock that was Koichoco. This game has huge production values. Different ending song for each route. 2 Openings by Mami Kawada and Kotoko. Original story with interesting characters...this game screams of pure win!
P.S: For your trouble I am going to leave you with a walkthrough and a save that hopefully you might not use since this is game where story and characters are premier. Happy Thanksgiving! And if you are in the States, do your best to survive Black Friday!

P.S 1: Aoi is my favorite character. Megumi Ogata makes a great job in giving her a voice that somehow combines maturity, compassion, care, chill, badassness and coolness.
P.S 2: A Crack is required. Be tolerant and patient fellas. The crack will come...It will always come.
UPDATE: A crack has been spotted! Thanks to the folks at 2DGAL for hosting, the dude named Mai for making it, Boulder96 for finding it and Aedes for helping out in making this baby work.
Here is the instructions on how to make it work:
Instructions
And attached here is the patch from the 2DGAL site (put here in English if you don't speak Chinese to navigate through 2DGAL). Bear in mind this is by no means a NoDVD. If you want that you might want to wait for it a bit longer until its released somewhere. I will try to stay sharp for it. I will use all my means available to have people access to all the resources available in the least painful way. Thanks to Andys and Aoyu18.
Update: You might want to update to the newest version of ITH to properly hook the text and not need H-Code. Here is the link:
ITH_2014-10-20
Update: In case you can't install it. Use windows 2000 compatibility when clicking in setup. Also remember to change your settings to Japanese just in case. Later on you can experiment with this and see if its really necessary or not. Better be safe than sorry. Thanks to arkenar.
Update: Good ol' Alpharom will work in terms of NODVD for the game (if you are in this community you probably are exposed to this patch already). To do it simply follow all instructions in playing with the crack. Download Alpharom, and when patching your exe file you will patch the crack instead of the exe file that would normally start the game (drag crack file into the alpharom menu window). Special thanks to Gaia0906.
Attached here is a current version of Alpharom.
SO THERE YOU HAVE IT FOLKS. ALL TOOLS FOR PLAYING THIS PROPERLY ARE AVAILABLE TO YOU. 'FRESCO OUT. Admin's: Feel free to update your posts accordingly.
