Well, our time at WordPress has come to an end.

The NHWS Team (That is, the WHOLE teams) has moved to Blogspot, where the new Cocytus blog  can be found here.

I hope you’ll join us there.

Well ladies and gents, this will be the last post from GWT for a while. Unfortunately, I have to take a long trip overseas and there’s a low chance of internet connection.

See you all in a year+.

This has absolutely nothing to do with Cocytus, buuut…

Saya no Uta, a Lovecraftian Visual Novel by Nitro+ (a company we respect here at NHWS) has had a translation in the works for god knows how long. For a long time, Vent and Myself were speculating if it would ever be completed so us non-Moon speaking Visual novel lovers would get a chance to play.

Well, it’s complete now. Sorta. In a “70% complete” sort of way.
I recommend you track down a copy (through whatever means you choose) and install this patch. Go on, read this gem of a Visual Novel. And when you reach the point where the translations stops, rage and anticipate it’s completion anxiously.

I know I will be, anyway.

Note: The game must be run with regional setting set to Japanese on Vista. AppLocale works on XP. Not too sure about other OSes, though.

Clap Clap for NHWS

Well, here we are once again with another NHWS Status update. For the people that don’t read this blog the fans, it means that we’ll be revealing the progress once again on the script of Cocytus Investigations.

That’s right. Just the script. All other concerns have been given up on shifted to the back burner in order to write a coherent and enjoyable plot first. Why bother with all the additional stuff when there’s an incomplete story, hm? After all, the story is the most important part and no one would read a poorly written story unless it was written as a female romance novel.

The script has currently met the 20% Mark. The entirety of the lead up to the three route splits has been completed, leaving the remaining scenarios to myself and Ventcore Frog. As such, progress will be announced seperately between the two of us: I will mark my updates as Messian Route, he will mark his as Paladonia Route.

Afterwards, we shall reconverge to finish the third and final route. Once completed, the hunt for an artist will resume our recruited artist will begin work on the art. Hopefully but unlikely we’ll have other updates along the way, such as concept art and a logo or two. Hopefully.

Well then, see when this route of mine is finished.

~GWT~

Script: First two Cases complete, with the third clocking in at 35 pages and coming up on its halfway point. Route splits shall follow immediately after completetion.

Soundtrack: We have returned to sir Nicol Amarfi as our sole composer. The second has disappeared. Tracks will be developed when script itself is complete, for simplicity sake.

Art: Still desperately seeking an artist.

Once again, anyone interested in doing art for the project may contact us Nhwsproductions@gmail.com.
