Hinokakera 3.01a Fragment Eclipse with P2P NetPlay (!)

I can’t believe that they’re actually still updating this.

Hell, if you didn’t tell me this was a trailer for a new, 2011 release, I’d swear you just posted a trailer for the very first version!

That’s pure grade A poverty right there. Accept no substitutions.

Allow me to fix that for you. After 7 years it’s technically the same, impenetrably stubborn guy, doing everything solo (well, there are two aids, methinks, but who cares about those guys, really).

Wow, I’m really impressed. Why have I never heard or seen this game before? XD

Obscure poverty is definitely obscure… And only 1 person (plus 2 lackeys)? In 3D as well? I’m even moar impressed… :smiley:

And I love the art style. Is the artist well known? It looks somewhat familiar to me.

O-O~

Besides more pre-2003 obscurity no one cares about (Garland-something, iirc), I’ve no info on him doing anything popular.
And I suspect his art looks familiar only because it’s “generic animu” (then again, I’m not particularly into that breed of CG). He won’t even give Malakh nipples, that bastard.

damn, i was just remebering this game the other day, i would ive it a try again to see how the game has evolved since v2.0
now i need to relearn how to play with kasumi

Yeah, i was going to comment this but nekich got the chance first.

Hinokakera is just “for the lulz” for me, i will check it out the new version but even if Reddish Region is making more and more stuff for the game, the 3D work, the music and, specially, the gameplay is one of the most poverty things ever in the “almost-pro doujin scene”.

Hi there ! Ryuka Akaishi just update r-region.net (Chaotic Eclipse) but seems like I have same trouble try to download through their main website. Anyone can help me here ?

Right. The trial has arrived earlier than expected.

Hinokakera Chaotic Eclipse ver t1.00.

Not 4.00 or anything. Cue confusion and immense grief. Unlike those previous v4 demos, this one has the exact same content all official HK trials have had in the past - 4 characters (Raven, Silvis, Kasumi, Celes), one stage in three flavours, one music track + one in character selection screen, but you should probably mute it anyways. ODFs are in the manual, but are not usable in the game. This is poverty trial we’re talking about after all, and anything flashy costs money. All versus modes are useable, as far as I can tell.

In a nutshell, if you’ve played vt4.00-03a (and I’m not blaming you if you didn’t), you can skip it. For everyone else - the archive’s mirrored below.

So a few of us in IRC got into Hinokakera recently. We’re still waiting on the release of the main game, but until that, we’ll be netplaying demo for a while. Is anyone else out there still interested in this game?

b

Me, but… they fixed the netcode? because Online on Fragment Eclipse was total ass.

I like this game but i couldn’t gt use to the system, malakh seemed to be weak compare to all the others.

What’s the IRC? Want to know what people think about HK.

Fun Fact: the day Chaotic Eclipse was released, author had posted a patch for it, which, if we are to believe the blog, fixes some undisclosed netplay bugs.

We are all in #hotcake at irc.rizon.net. It looks like everyone jumped to v3 since we got tired of waiting for the version 4 release.

So how does Chaotic Eclipse play? Didnt get a chance to pick it up but i still have v3

It plays more or less like v3 except now there’s good netplay.

The game has finally arrived. Head over to IRC channel and learn why Aya is OP and why Chaotic Eclipse weighs less than v3.

Sounds good. I want to play easy mode character.

Hi there, I’m still new to this forum. I like the hinokakera gameplay and my favorite character is Kakeru (looks cool XD). Still waiting for full release hinokakera Chaotic Eclipse. My region can’t download from their main site r-region.net, forbidden , don’t know why. So hope you guys keep updating the Chaotic Eclipse here !! :slight_smile:

Having problems with the 4th instalment of the game Hinokakera Chaotic Eclipse. The game recognises my buttons, but it wont respond to stick movements. Really weird that the configuration tool lets you set buttons without a problem, but you can`t select directional control scheme. Is there anyway to make this work besides having to use 3rd party tools?
