Hey, I just found a Sugar Shooter Saturday comic that was translated into Brazilian Portuguese :3

Just thought it was probably worth mentioning.  It's great that people from other countries are translating it in their own language to spread it around, yes?

punipen

Yeah, the guy asked me in FA :D It was very nice of him! Just posted this on the blog as well as tumblr ^^

Would love to see the comic in Taiwanese or Chinese as well...according to the stats, many people access the blog from China, so I think there are many Chinese SS fan as well, but they probably don't speak English, hence why they never show up in the blog or the board.

Reiga

Awesome!  Hopefully, we can find other people to help translate Sugar Shooter so that it's more marketable to other countries :3

Ultimately, I want Sugar Shooter to be free, so anyone can translate it without having to ask me permission or anything though :)

Reiga

Why would you want Sugar Shooter to be free?

punipen

Well, why wouldn't I? :)  More people will be able to enjoy the game, and the game can spread further. It's also fun to see what will people do with the game and all the possibilities that fans can come up with.

Reiga

I guess so...But it would feel a lot better if you made a little bit of profit.  Or are you just copying the underwear gnomes' business plan?

Just because the game's free doesn't mean I can't profit though :) If people like the game, I'm sure they'll make a donation or go buy merchandise instead. Anyone can create a digital copy of my game freely, so I don't see why I have to limit their rights. If they pay money, then it's because they really like the game and would really like to support us, instead of paying because that's the only way to play the full game.

There are many example of this already though and I feel that this is the way the digital content will be moving toward to in the future. I can't do that with Sugar Shooter yet because Take-san would be involve, which I think he isn't quite ready yet. This is a reason why I make Kemo Coliseum free though :D

In case you want to know more about the business model based on free stuffs or free culture movement, you can start from checking out this article -> http://questioncopyright.org/what_is_free_culture

Just googled "Underwear Gnomes Business Plan" LOL! So that's where the meme come from? XD

Reiga

Okay, I understand :3

Feels like you're taking a page out of Extra Credits video about Microtransactions X3

Hehe, maybe when you finish the Kemo Coliseum, you can do a gay version of Catherine XD

Haven't watched that episode of Extra Credits yet though! As for Catherine, I have to have a PS3 first to see how is Catherine like (;w ; )

This reminds me, I should prepare SS2 so that it will be easy for people to translate the game as well.  ;D

Wellll, I'm working on a Spanish and Portuguese version of the wiki with some kind translators.
I don't know how long it'll take, but we'll have at least three complete language versions of the wiki in the future!
