I'm glad the locale issue was fixed! I was able to come back and play it towards the end of the jam. Unfortunately, it did still crash for me during the investigation section while presenting evidence to Satori, but I think I got to see a lot of stuff. Always good to have Marisa as a protagonist and I liked the trivia and investigation mechanics

Thank you very much. I hope next time I can learn a lesson and fix this unexpected error,Perhaps it would be worked to load the archive after restarting the game

i respect the hustle, we like marisa here, good luck in the future my friend

Developer

Thank you for your encouragement ! I will work harder next time

I had some difficulty trying to install the game but I managed to install it correctly in the end.
I tried playing but the game crashes often. So I would have to replay some parts of the game for no good reason. I didn't finish the game because the texts are unskippable and the cutscenes long.

That was your first time participating in a Game Jam, yes? 
Did you find it hard to make the game within the allocated 72 hours?

Developer

There are always some unexpected problems. The main reason is that I can carry out the program normally, which also leads to the problem that I can't find the program accurately. One person is still in a hurry. I am deeply sorry for the inconvenience caused :(

Developer

I think it should be a difference in the code running environment.it's really a headache.

For those trying to get this working, I've managed to get the game running properly, with English translations active:

1) Extracting. The problem is with the non-unicode encoding of the filenames. You need to specify the encoding when extracting. 

Option a) With 7zip: 

7z x "Eternal dream of marisa.zip" -mcp=936 

Option b) With the "unzip" utility on Linux or MacOS (can also use it in linux subsystem for windows): 

unzip -O GB18030 "Eternal dream of marisa.zip" 

To check if it worked, look inside the "js" folder inside the extracted game folder. One of the files should be called "新建文本文档.js". If instead you have a filename with nonsense characters, then it didn't work.

2) Translating. The game is in Chinese by default, but it can be switched to English in the options. In the main menu, the "Options" button is the third button, labelled "选项".

Thank you very much for providing the method.!This error is really confusing for me. Every time I try to fix it, it doesn't seem to have much effect (perhaps even worse?). This time, I have reorganized the plugin and I'm not sure if it will work at all. I'm very sorry for any inconvenience caused<3

hello! this game had an error when i tried loading it that said "

Error

Failed to load: js/plugins/%E8%87%AA%E5%8A%A8%E6%8D%A2%E8%A1%8CMZ.js

"

i really hope you can fix this so we can play the game because it looks fun :3

Developer (1 edit)

 So sorry for this ! I will fix it as soon as possibleT_T

Developer

I tried to fix it and it works fine on my computer. If there are any issues, I will continue to try to fix it :D

I had the same issue. I think it's an error caused by unzipping the files in a different system locale, so Chinese -> Other Languages. For example, I have a .js file that comes out as "�½��ı��ĵ�.js", which I assume is what causes the "failed to load .js" error.

I downloaded Simplified Chinese language and changed my Windows system locale, but it didn't work either. Maybe you could put the name of the plugin in Latin alphabet characters and it would work? The same unzipping error also happens with a lot of the other game files, which might also cause the same crash in-game. Changing your system locale to English when you zip the game folder may also make sure all of the filenames unzip properly.

Developer

After learning about your suggestion i have changed my Windows system locale and make some changes with the plugins. No issues with the test results this time,I am very grateful for your help! :3

I am not certain that it is fixed.
I still get Failed to load: js/plugins/%E8%87%AA%E5%8A%A8%E6%8D%A2%E8%A1%8CMZ.js

The images on the game page looked a bit interesting. I guess I will come back at a later day.
