[ 11702 查看 / 9 回复 ]

无聊逛绯月的时候发现的消息,网站在这:https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sekaiproject/narcissu-10th-anniversary-anthology-project
然后这是绯月上的帖子,有人翻译过的基本信息:http://bbs.2dgal.com/read.php?tid=516738 不过需要登陆才能查看,如果没有账号就直接看原网站算了,还更详细一些。

以下是复制原网站上的:
Help us produce the definitive anthology of the Narcissu series!

We're Sekai Project, and we've partnered with the creator of the Narcissu series, Stage-nana, to develop and produce the definitive anthology of the games. With your help we will be remaking the older games with new art, re-recorded voices,and we will also be creating an entirely new scenario!

We are in the process of producing 4 games as part of the Narcissu anthology:

Sumire - An entirely new chapter in the series.
Zero - The origin story of the 7th Floor
A Little Iris - A separate side story set in medieval Europe
Himeko's Epilogue - A short epilogue for Narcissu 2

Narcissu介绍,知道的跳过就行了

What is Narcissu?

It's a Japanese visual novel series with no choices that explores themes about terminal illness, and the relationship between the living and the dying. The games became known for their high production quality and touching story and were eventually downloaded over a million times worldwide. Numerous spin offs such as a manga, a light novel, even mobile apps were created, and it has been translated by fans into many languages including English, Chinese, French, and Polish just to name a few.

You can find the most recent versions of the games for free on Steam, also published by Sekai Project, as Narcissu 1+2 where it has a "Very Positive" rating with over 1,800 reviews and over 127k downloads.

选Kickstarter的原因

Why Kickstarter?

Over the past few months, we've been busy investing $60,000 to pay for all the localization work, as well as paying Stage-Nana to start production on the artwork and programming that we need for the project.  Work has already started on all aspects and our production schedule is detailed further down the page.

But now we need the help of Kickstarter to cover the rest of the costs of licenses, artwork, voice work, and programming. We are also paying to support Stage-Nana as they develop this game full time with us.

项目组介绍,不知道的可以看看

Who are we?

We are Sekai Project, a company specializing in connecting creators and users through language. We're a mixed band of translators, programmer, editors, and testers. But most importantly, we are all very passionate about bringing interesting media to fans who do not have direct access due to language barriers or other restricting factors.

This will be our second Kickstarter looking to fund the active development of a game title. We've previously run successful Kickstarters to fund localization, such as fault milestone one, CLANNAD, the Fruit of Grisaia Series, and are bringing our experience in working with games to Narcissu.

Stage Nana介绍,可以跳过

Who's Stage-Nana

Stage-Nana is a Japanese doujin group that created the original Narcissu  series a decade ago in 2005. The group is led by Tomo Kataoka, a veteran of the Japanese visual novel industry. Kataoka is also a primary scenario writer/director for the Nekoneko-Software brand of visual novels in Japan. Nekoneko-Software had just celebrated their 16th year as a company.

Stage-Nana are providing the writing and their expertise in producing visual novels for this project. They will be working full time with Sekai Project until everything for this Kickstarter campaign is complete.

然后是筹钱筹多了的计划
$100,000: A short extra story by Tomo Kataoka, "1980"
$150,000: Mini-shikishi with exclusive artwork for all physical backers.
$200,000: Other platforms. (We're researching what's feasible now)
$250,000: Brand new Narcissu opening animation movie.
$500,000: A 30 minute ~ 1 hour long OVA.


计划日程

Planned Production Schedule

Unlike our previous Kickstarter campaigns, we are experimenting with getting completed games into backer's hands much sooner. Translation of the games has already been under way, with "Himeko's Epilogue" and "A Little Iris" having their production prioritized.

With the translation having a head start, the new artwork, voices, and programming/debugging will be the main factors in whether production completes on time. Currently our best estimates for completion are as follows, and we'll be updating regularly as things change.

Late November - Digital release: "Himeko's Epilogue"
Late December - Digital Release: "Narcissu:A Little Iris"
January - Digital Release "Narcissu: Zero"
February - Digital Release "Narcissu: Sumire"


资金分配

Funding Breakdown

The estimated production expenses for the project are as follows (*about 10% goes towards KS and processing fees.):

$40k for voice licenses & new voice recording
$8k for Himeko's Epilogue, artwork, programming, etc.
$17k for A Little Iris, artwork, programming, etc.
$20k for Zero, artwork, programming, etc.
$50k for Sumire, new scenario writing, artwork, programming, etc.
For a total of $135k.

But why is that different from our $75k goal? Because we knew before this project started that it would take a big effort to get off the ground. That is why we've spent the $60,000 and found an additional funding source before turning to Kickstarter.



感觉期待的东西又多了一个,似乎还有全新的故事,原网站上还有片冈的话https://sekaiproject.com/ks/kataoka.png,有兴趣可以去看看,虽然很多都是片冈以前就说过的了。

回复 4# Miyazakehime 的帖子

雨のマージナル的话玩过,里边的Narcissu的小故事是せつみ的,所以我觉得Sumire可能是新的吧,不过也可能是在我没发现的什么地方。不过这个名字倒是挺熟的,不知道跟すみれ有什么关系,还是巧合了。
关于重制,这么一说还真是,感觉天朝一下就显得特别low了。不过这个问题要讨论起来就停不下来了,钱也是很重要的原因吧,毕竟人家项目组自己就准备了$60,000,这也是没法比呀。
