WHEEEEE~ Episode 1 is finally done and available for download!!!!
*swt* All right, so maybe this is a little late, but I was busy with…. some other stuff…. *shifty eyes*
Anyway, yeah so I updated the Films/Shows section. I added a link to the download of Episode One of Journey to the West I (Dicky Cheung version) with English subs, another link to the download of the Spanish sub of the same ep, and also added information about a dubbed version Cortez is working on. I just received a program called Cool Edit from him and an awesome video on how to dub the clip, and yeah…. basically working on my Guan Yin voice now. LOL. VOICE ACTING IS UBER HARD DAMN IT. XD And to think I was considering a career in it. Bleh.

Updated the Games section:
- Added information about The Monkey King: The Legend Begins for the Wii console. I actually went and did research on this one LOL. Another amazing game.
- Also added information about Monkey King Chinese Chess Xiangqi Set and opened a new section for it, ‘Board Games’.
- Added more information about Monkey Magic. Finally removed the combo offer and replaced it with a buy link only for the Monkey Magic game. Also added box art image.
The Games page is starting to look really decent now! Yeah! Now if I finish my own game and add it it’ll be even decent-er. XD

Have finished downloading both Episode 2 and 3. Have finished editing two thirds of Episode 2. Should finish Episode 2 later tonight.
EDIT: I have finally finished editing Episode 2. WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! Will now probably spend tommorow working on my game before continuing to Episode 3. Unless I get sidetracked by Iantivirus, that is. Heh.

Pruned some links. Only the very best on my links page now! XD

Cleaned up the Films/Shows page. Deleted unnecessary links. Added a link to a discussion thread for the Liu Xiao Ling Tong Journey to the West series. Arranged the episode lists in a table. Moved the Dicky Cheung version to higher up on the page. It should look tidier now. Heh.

I’ve finally found out why the Continue Game and Preferences menus couldn’t load. It was because I had two variables ‘int’ and ’str’ that were actually built-in variables in python. So I changed them, respectively, to ‘intelligence’ and ’strength’. And now everything works completely fine! YAY! Now I can go back to working on my game with no worries. (huge, huge happy grin)

I have finished the intro and the woodcutter scene and hope to start the introductory scene with Ling Er soon. I have also added background images and music to the intro. However, I’ve run into some problems, as the Preferences and Continue Game menus don’t seem to work. I’m currently trying to find out what’s the problem and fix it.

I’m currently working on a Wukong-centric game using the Ren’py game engine. It will focus and expand on Wu Kong’s training with Patriarch Subodhi. Using the events of the original novel as a skeleton, I will add in a lot of my own plot and characterization, taking serious liberties with the canon of the novel yet trying to stay faithful to it wherever possible.
The game will have the format of a visual novel and incorporate dating sim elements, turn-based combat, Princess Maker style character building elements, RPG elements, and much, much more. Even though it will be somewhat like a dating sim in the sense that you can build relationships with multiple characters, which will influence the plot and eventually the ending, the relationships will not be based on romance but friendship. The three characters available are the woodcutter whom Wu Kong met while searching for an immortal (I’m calling him Rui), the boy servant, the one who opened the door for Wu Kong (I’m calling him Ling Er), and Nezha. The events leading up to his being sent to study with Patriarch Subodhi will be consistent with the canon of Feng Shen Bang (Canonization of the Gods), in which he is a major character.
Despite all the RPG and combat elements, this will be mainly a story-driven game though I’ll try to give the player as much freedom as possible. This game will involve tremendous amounts of writing so I’m looking for someone to help process my images… mainly making the character images transparent (not sure if that’s the right word) so I can have them show up on the screen without obscuring the background. And maybe some other stuff as well. If someone could proofread the script and give me some feedback, that’d be great too! If anyone could help, please leave a comment and tell me. Alternatively, email me at yuenyuen13@hotmail.com. Thank you very much!

Updated the Films/Shows section: Added information about The Forbidden Kingdom. I also added information about the 1996 Journey to the West (Xiyouji) drama series starring Dicky Cheung. Finally there a group subbing this amazing series and one of those people is me! Go here to see the part of Episode 1 that we’ve subbed already! The full version should be out very soon.
Updated the Games section: Added information about Saiyuki: Journey West by Koei. Awesome game, must play for any Journey to the West fan.
Special Update: Added a blog! For now it contains progress reports about the projects related to Journey to the West that I’m working on. One of those projects is this website, and I’ve listed the features I’m planning to include in this website. Once I’ve added it to the site, I mark it as done in the blog. So you can see from this blog what I’m going to add and what I’ve added! You can even suggest improvements or give comments on the updates! Isn’t that fantastic? Yes it is. Hehehe. Another of those projects is the translation project for the 96 version of Journey to the West so you can see what I’m contributing to it as well. And some others as well, of course.
I also rearranged the format of the guestbook so that it’s now part of the Misc. section.
I hope that this (relatively) massive update makes up for all those months of neglect.
