Roads Yet Traveled

I didn't know where else to ask this, so here goes nothing.

I've been working on a Spanish translation and I wanted to get your permission before publishing it. It's very early on still, but I hope to have it, and keep it, up to date with the original eventually.

I'd publish it as a mod, of course. The user would have to download the original version then add the translation on top.

If there's a better place to ask, I'll happily delete this comment and ask there instead.

Finally Finished Rhouns. Absolutely loved his route!!💙💙 Now i need to start Marrowyn's.

If this were a book I would sell even my grandmother to buy it. I've replayed this over eight times and I can't get enough of it. I just love every detail and man the soundtrack is just magnificent it gives a feeling of vastness and solidity. The characters are captivating and unique and they really leave a mark on you. 

cried a lot 10/10😀👍

Absolutely tragic that Marruk's changed dialogue doesn't double down on calling Tucker a freak on day 1 - we lost the goofy grin ;(

Also, I don't know if we've been given how many days are in a carain but I'll assume it's 365 and that my math checks out (which, admittedly, is a bold assumption). If both of these are true and there are 34 marks in a day and 70 minutes in a mark: Marruk (for example [mainly bc he's the one whose age I remember off the top of my head]) is ~49 in human years and (I think this is build 7.5 info) a carain average lifespan is 180 carain cycles. Which, accounting for the time difference in length of days, means the average carain age is just shy of 300 human years.

All this to say: the space doggos are also space half-elves.
Hell yeah.

Okay, going through the first version a couple weeks ago reading every route and now going through the new version of Marrowyn's and Rhoun's route. (I burnt myself out and haven't even started Marruk's route, I'll try to get back to that later) But I decided this was a good stopping point. I wanted to just put in my two cents.

I can understand wanting to take out some scenes that made it feel like it's unnecessary, or even feels like its rambling. But honestly in my opinion, this is what made the story so unique, it gave each character so much depth and had me laugh during each scene that was taken out. I did note down what I thought was great, but forgive me if it doesn't make sense, I tend to just write what I'm thinking. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Marruk - (While mc was still in the cell) There seems to be missing a part where mc was being read on his monitor by Marruk in the cell - was brought up during the reading.

Marrowyn - In the cell, first contact while mc came to sit next to Marrowyn then retreated arm and Marrowyn thought he was not going to get a second chance. (was taken out, was a good bit to have) 

Marrowyn - Marruk asking if mc is dangerous. mc and Marrowyn joking with Marruk that mc is shy and doesn't want show if his blood is acidic or Marrowyn is being controlled by mc (was taken out, thought it was funny) 

Marrowyn- Second day mc thought Marrowyn was watching him again. (I liked it, but not too worried that it being left out) 

Marrowyn- Asking about the tail bone was taken out or was it shortened? (thought that was a good thing to keep in and maybe even elaborate on) Loved the part were the blood explaination was blue.

Marrowyn- after the viewing the telescope, right before bed, it feels like there's a bit missing talking about Tyr figuring something out (can't place my finger on why though) 

Marrowyn/Marruk/mc- the explanation of why mc was knocked out so quickly, i.e. shock gloves. (I don't mind that it was taken out. But also, don't mind seeing it in there) 

Marrowyn- Note to self- Was there a part where Marrowyn swabbed mc's cheek? was that taken out?

Marrowyn- note to self, was there a previous version where the doc was embarrassed eating in front of mc because he actually was kind of like a monster when it came to eating his food? Would definitely consider putting something in about it, Marrowyn is big in both aspects. Him hardly eating would have me think Marrowyn's lost a lot of weight. Just a thought. 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rhoun - Going to the room for the first time. taking out the part where he doesn't use the shampoo. (was an okay bit to leave in I think)

Rhoun - Another bit I thought would be asking for an extra a shirt. - I thought that was another bit that should have been left in there.

Rhoun- I like the blue light line the first night.

Mylo- Taking out the part where he won't eat him - yet. (loved that part, wished it stayed)

Mylo/mc- Also taking out the part where mc turned around (loved that part also)

Mylo/mc- Taking out the part explanation after Mylo's reaction to MC's laugh (liked that part as well)

Kess/Mylo/mc - Taking out the part about wanting to go into even a more dark and cramped space for fun to get Rhoun (loved that part, would highly recommend putting it back)

Rhoun/mc- Talking about Kess and Mylo. Rhoun wanting to hang with them and mc saying they think mc will eat Rhoun. (Funny, a new bit? Defiantly leave in)

mc- Going down the hall after he broke his phone. he seems to know how many hours he slept. but afterwards while talking to one to one of his guardians he slept for a whole day and was flabbergasted by it? just wondering if it was intentional or if he forgot? or am I misreading this?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After going through Marrowyn's and Rhoun's route again, I really enjoyed it. There were new tidbits in storylines which brought a new aspect to it. But I do hope this helps, I know it's probably a bunch of gibberish and tend to write what I'm thinking. I am a bit scatterbrained, but I think these lines are part of what made this VN great. 

But if you have questions, let me know! I don't mind coming back and trying to explain! 

ps. I still need to do Marruk's route, but I am so burnt out right now, I'm going to have to set this aside for a bit. I am invested in the story; I can't wait for the next update! 

Lovin it so far. Wish there was a pronoun option for those identifying as he/him.

I hope this isn't too stupid of a question, but how does the new build know all the saves and data from the previous build (im very stupid, so someone please enlighten me). Because I just downloaded the new file and it has all my saves and stuff already. 

I didn't like MARROWYN's new sprite at all, I even thought he gained weight the last time I saw him.

The new sprites look amazing! Great job as always, Cryptid <3

Not really liking the new Marrowyn sprite. Why the change?

I skip a version or 3 and the new sprites... Gonna admit some of them are ok but definitely prefer the old Tyr and Marruk sprites over the new ones.

I love the VN so far. The characters are interesting and I like a more in depth look at the terror of suddenly finding yourself away from home and how that would psychologically affect someone. Rhoun is my fave so far. I'll definitely be following this VN closely. 

**Potential SPOILERS below**

I guess the only thing I'm frustrated over is once they had the language AI, why didn't he ask them for the basic structure of their alphabet so he could learn to read their language? I mean yeah his texts in his monitor translate messages back and forth but being able to read station signs so he can properly navigate would be a huge boon in feeling more independent. He even could have said something like "write down the word water," and he could write it in english and begin to sparce together what each letter of their language equivalent in english could have been.

I'm likely overthinking this. I understand its probably plot related to not have this taken care of sooner or maybe this is resolved later on since so much is going on. 

Hey CD. if I may ask, when is the public release date?

Hi, if i had enough data could I potentially solve the main mystery?, obviously this is sci-fi but it does seem to adhere to physical principles

loving the vn so far, I just love space related stuff and seeing it in a vn is just really awesome for me

One problem tho, there's a missing sprite?
