Ren'Py Version: Ren'Py 5.6.3a

KITTY-CHAN PROGARAMMED SOMETHING!

Ok.. I managed to work out a bit of how I should do, soo...

[PyTom]

Ren'Py 5.6.3 is ancient and not supported. Please upgrade. And thanks for posting the traceback.

(Now we can add "Swedish" and "Swedish (Chef)" to the list of languages.)

[LVUER]

It is finished. The Question in Indonesia. Yay!
The title "The Question" should become "Pertanyaan" or "Pertanyaan Itu".

"I" and "Me" in Indonesia could be "Aku" or "Saya". Both are formal words. I decide to make Sylvie to always use "Saya" when refering to I and me. While "You" could be "Kau" or "Kamu" and both are formal words too. But all of these words musn't be used in any formal papers such as thesis, research reports, etc.

BTW, I have read the the marketing version of The Question and I can't stop laughing when reading it... Wait, it IS supposed to be funny right?Either way, it is very good, but it's in English right? So should we translate it also into another language?

[PyTom]

A few more (machine-generated) invariants.

[MoonlightBomber]

Might bring out a Tagalog translation sometime tomorrow.

[mikey]

Updated the front page, this is really going great!

As for languages, hopefully we'll have even more, there still is potential - but of course don't stress yourself, this should primarily be fun. I'm amazed it caught on so quickly. Thanks for everyone's efforts!

As for fun translations... may I suggest "otaku speak" (like sugooi, kawaii and the thing). And ROT13, of course. Just kidding. But not really. ^_^

[bloodywyvern]

*drops in* Well when you ask, you shall receive! Machine translated ROT13 for you, though I left the names in tact (should I have not?).

[Efreet]

Well then, wasn't too sure if this counts or not... But here is the WAAAGH! edition, I only just got some free time to convert the script. However I must warn you, it's weird...

Sorry no illustrations either - maybe later on we can change all the images to whatever we translated them to? (cat-people, otaku clothes, orcs, etc)

[bloodywyvern]

That would be much more difficult then the original goal, which is just the script. I don't think people want to go down that road...some of them maybe, but all of them could become problematic.

[Enerccio]

otaku version... but I wonder if you can call it like that... orz
