Introducing "Morenatsu ~Revisited~" (version 0.1)
IMPORTANT!! THIS VERSION IS OUTDATED!! YOU CAN FIND THE NEWEST VERSION HERE:
https://www.furaffinity.net/view/26090489/
Hello, Everyone!
I want to share a project I've been working on the past few months.
I'm slowly rebuilding Morenatsu from the ground up in the Ren'py engine, and right now I've got a build that's in a (mostly) presentable state.
I remember how difficult it was to get the original to work the first time, and with downloads of the original becoming harder and harder to find, I think now's a good time to share what I've got so far.
It's a shame the team let the project die after so long, and as a big fan I want to do my part in making sure it isn't forgotten.
Admittedly, this version is not 100% faithful to the fan translation. However, I've taken advantage of the engine shift to give the whole thing an "editing" pass. Hopefully you find it more consistent now that everything is in a single "voice."
In the spirit of fan remakes, I also am going to try my hand at finishing the routes that were never added (Torahiko, Soutarou, Kyouji). There are snippets of what I have so far tucked away in the game if you pick the right options on the right days.
Also, I've made a Mac version of the program, too, since I don't remember the original being compatible with those systems.
I'm not good at this, er, advertising thing, so...
Cheers!

Well this is certainly a nice surprise. And even though I've played through the completed routes on the original version I actually think I might go through them again. Just to see if they'll have any extra days or not as well. And that was kind of cool to have Kenji mentioned..although since it's been a while since I've played the original I cna't remember he was mentioned in that one or not. Also there was one typing error I found since I think Juuichi should have forgotten instead of forgot. Anyway though looking forward to the next update.
Ah, I see. Looking forward to finding out what is added to each route. And yeah I noticed that too. So I won't lie it'd be kind of cool if he showed up in Juuichi's route....even if it was just in a flashback scene or something. I mean there was that one visual novel that made sprites for him.
Seriously you're doing a fantastic job. I've played through all of the completable routes from the original and have been delighted to notice little extra already. It's exciting to see new content. You have the support and respect of so many for taking this upon yourself. Keep up the great work!
Hmm that this do sound very promising! I wonder though, the sex scenes in the new scenes and routes...if they will have cg scenes or not or if you're not sure about it yet. Who was artist of original Morenatsu? if you know, you tried contacting him to ask if he's interested in doing more art?
You're welcome. And yeah I agree Kounosuke deserved a more serious route. Anyway though I was wondering, for some reason I can't seem to get the beach phone call from Kyouji even though I choose to sit next to him and Soutarou. Did I miss something leading up to that part of the game?
Since he doesn't have a lot of content yet, you need to game the affection system a bit. How I get it consistently is to do this:
1. Sit with him and Tarou <Kyouji +1>
2. Visit Shin and give him a wrong answer
3. Go to Candy Store (preferably talk to Shin)
4. Do Grandma's errands. "Unlike You."
5. Visit downtown. Choose "Cheese." <Kyouji +1>
6. Get ice cream. Doesn't matter what you choose at this point.
If you follow the idea here into the second half and keep everyone else at a really low score, you should be woken up by Kyouji on the camping trip, too.

Ah, okay. Thanks for the info. Although to be honest I'lll probably play through Kyouji, Soutarou, and Torahiko's routes again once more content is added. Which if I have to replay those routes again is okay with me.
By the way I know this might not be possible, but could there possibly be sprites made for Kounosuke's Dad? I mean if that's not possible that's okay, I was just curious is all.

I'm treading very carefully when it comes to new art assets. There's a lot of emotional investment in what's already here, and I anticipate any changes I make to not go over too well.
I'm not saying it's out of the question, but for now I'm gonna focus on the writing, which is why I tried to make Mr. Kuri's actions more detailed in their description than characters who DO have sprites. That's not to say I wouldn't love to have sprites for some characters (I find Kyouji's set of three expressions quite limiting), I just need more time to figure out how I'm gonna approach it.

Yeah that's understandable. Well, I know it may not mean that much. But whatever you decide to do is fine with me.
Although yeah I could see how Kyougi will tricky without making new sprites. I say as long as the new sprites look somewhat close to the others than you have nothing to worry about. Of course that's just my opinion on the matter....

What about just for porting? Or bug fixing? I'm not talking about joining a team and making you depend on me to do a whole story branch; I just mean it would be easier for you cuz you could focus on the main game and if there's bugs or unsupported platforms, then others could handle that part for you.
For the most part, Ren'py itself handles different distribution builds, so I'm not too worried about that. However, going through the whole thing again I've noticed several typos that I missed. Seeing everything so often does make me a bit blind to it, so I'm considering opening up a google doc or something if anyone wants to help me track down those pesky things.
I'll get back to you if there's something else I need, though! Thanks!

I would like to help you with that little problem too) I also noticed that some dialogues are spoken by wrong characters. I mean...It has happened on a test of courage in general. For example at the end of the test of courage (if you choose Kounosuke) was uttered this phrase: "This is all your fault, Kounosuke". And this phrase obviously belongs to Torahiko. But this phrase was spoken by Kounosuke in the game...
And at the end of the test of courage (if you choose Shun)...I absolutely don't understand why Nanafuse said that he likes chocolate ice cream...After all, it was supposed that he will appear later. Hmm...

Hi! I'm really liking what you've been doing with Torahiko's route so far. I'm glad you handle him quite well. I like those sweet moments with him, especially those pranks...
I know it's not a way of him to do or say sweet things, but... maybe you could give him a little bit of depth, so he is more than just a prankster, obnoxious and noisy? Make him a little mature as his route progresses and as he spends the time with the player more often, especially when he ends up with the player. Just a suggestion, though.
I love Torahiko so much. And given your work so far, I trust you could do him well. It's nice to see that there are still people who's willing to try to complete this. It restores my faith. I've been longingly wait for his route to be completed..
Thanks a lot and wish you the best of luck. You're awesome

There is a lot of depth under the surface for Torahiko. I'm trying to expand on what was hinted at by the original developers, but I have to add my own spin to it as well since there isn't much to go by.
I'm curious, though. Did you manage to meet him on the first rainy day? Try being somewhere Kouya would be if you were following his route...
It's one of the days I wrote for him, which I think fleshes out his character a bit more.
Thank you for the kind words!

The one day with him in the park where we get to play seesaw and swing with him and how he said sadly he has always wanted a brother? If it is, yeah, really I do like that part. Y'see, for me, seeing how a boisterous, noisy Torahiko got all silent and musing sadly about his past and feelings... I feel sorry for him. But also I really like more of those moments. Nice touch.
Another suggestion; what do you think about making Nanafuse involved in his route? So far, he's only appeared most prominently in... Kounosuke's route, I guess? It'll be nice to see more of him. And other horrors

I almost forgot...I hope that we will see the entire football team on the Kyoutarou route (in writing, at least). More new characters on the last two routes will not hurt. (Torahiko and Kyuotarou) And more interactions of Hiroyuki with parents of all characters (especially with parents of Torahiko, Kyouji and Soutarou).
And...DzahnDragon...Will you use these "especial" sprites of Mitsuhisa?:D https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net.....20140109135646
These sprites are official and these sprites were never used (some sprites of other characters are also were not used too, i think...). It's very odd.
P.S. (I think I asked all the questions that interest me).

There should be plenty of new characters added in the new routes. Whether or not they'll ever get sprites is another question.
As for Mitsuhisa, I doubt there will ever be a circumstance where I can use the underwear sprites. I'm not planning to add him as a playable route, sorry...

"As for Mitsuhisa, I doubt there will ever be a circumstance where I can use the underwear sprites. I'm not planning to add him as a playable route, sorry... " Wow! You don't need to apologize, dude))) I asked this question because these sprites are official. I think parents should be parents. (even in spite of the fact that they are hot DILFS)))
"There should be plenty of new characters added in the new routes" It's a very satisfying fact. Thank you

Tappei's... tricky. I see why people like him, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to do him justice. I consider it down the line, but I think for now I'm gonna leave him alone as is.
Ten's a lot easier for me to work with. He's one of the characters I've got potential route concepts prepared for after I finish with the main cast.
