/vr/ - Retro Games

I don't get the hype
yeah it's kinda trippy but way too repetitive

just use real drugs, that way you will hopefully od

>>1151146
Pretty much this .i got bored after about 2 hours but i like it,no way I'd pay the going rate for it though

Once you learn to end a dream with a central point in graph, you'll know why it is L.S.D and not a clueless and repetitive game.

>>1151171
what happens when you end a dream with a central point in the graph?

>>1151171
Please elaborate.

>>1151137
It's not really a game so much as a concept art piece. If that sounds interesting to you, then you're the kind of person it'll appeal to. If it doesn't, don't bother, you really won't find anything worth your time.

It's cool to play every once in a while, but my biggest complain is that the coolest areas are the rarest ones, like the violent city, or that place with the rocket.
I get my piss in a stove every time i end up in the room with the square hole and the flying elephant. It just appears waaay too often.

It's not all that good. Yume Nikki and .flow are much better, but they're /v/.

>>1151220
I wish YN was /vr/

>>1151293
.flow is a bit better. YN is retro but not actually made before 1999.

moot should have made vr = retro & alternative gaming.

retro = retro
+alternative = indie shit
= da bomb yo

>>1151190
If you look around you can find a map that may help you navigate. It is possible to aim for certain locations once you get your bearings, if I recall correctly the violence district is in the east of an overworld down a curving pass.

LSD is the game I love everything about, except the game itself.

The guy who made this made another game named Eastern Mind, which is the same idea, but much better - coherent story, actual gameplay, objectives, things to do.

Google Tong Nou / Eastern Mind OP and play that instead. Shit is incredible. Trippiest game ever made probably.

>>1151372
you have to emulate windows 3.1 to even attempt to play it correctly though, so that's a pain for a lot of people.

>>1151378
There's a pastebin that takes care of everything and has downloads for both games, somebody post it.

>>1151390

This?

any chance somebody uploads it to mega or something?

I found out some really interesting stuff about how the warp mechanic works by using savestates. I don't know if I want to share or if I'm too lazy to write it all up.

Spot on description

can we please start having LSD General threads instead of a bunch of different ones? i love the game but this is getting old

>>1151378
running window 3.1 on dos box is pants shittingly easy. You have to be a total fucktard to not be able to do it

>>1151584
We really don't need another fucking general clogging up page 0, especially for this "game"

where can I get a download link to Eastern Mind? The portable version of DOSBox is Windows only and it runs like shit on Wine. I installed 3.1 on DOSbox but I have no idea how to install the game itself.

>>1151625
I doubt a general would clog much based on how many posts these threads usually get.

>>1151584
We used to have Chu-Teng/Osamu Sato/etc. generals a few months back. Pretty much you can't just talk about LSD without Eastern Mind or Chu-Teng being brought up it seems so I wouldn't mind more Osamu Sato generals. Not to mention given the niche nature of LSD it wouldn't be very prudent to have multiple exceptionally slow threads going on when they can all be put in one general.

Right now there's actually another Sato thread going on over at >>1135821

Miscellaneous pic

10spooky12me

I remember reading somewhere on a blog post or something saying there was an FMV cutscene where a child was eating bits of a brain. I'm pretty sure that's not what the child is doing nor what he is supposed to be eating. I feel like denouncing that notion in case anyone else has heard that.

Also this kid is rumored to be Sato's kid but that's pure speculation.

>>1151794
Additional pic

Reminds me of a picture I took while I was in Japan in 2011 actually.

The floor is Sato's face

>violent city

Nope, fuck that. That's nightmare fuel shit. I always run into a wall ASAP when I go there.

And then it appears more. I think it can tell I'm scared.

>>1151849

>>1151849

>>1151795
whoa really? I wonder what other eastern mind references are in the game assuming this isn't shoped I don't think it is though

>>1151372
>>1151413
Currently about to open that shit.

>>1151185
Art? LOL

typical postmodernist junk

video games are GAMES

played it, not scary at all

>>1151883
It's not shopped. It's a direct screenshot, my friend.

>>1151883

Yeah, that's not shopped. Pretty direct reference to Chu-Teng.

>>1151883
Well, there's this

>>1151929

Which is why you will not like LSD. It is not a good game.

Anyone know if I download this, and burn it to a Net Yaroze disk, will it work on a retail PS1?

Day 236. Spawned on top of a skyscraper in the Violence District. Alluding to suicide?

>>1152782
Another view.

An example of the game glitching out. (I assume all 'glitches' are intentional.) The box beneath the streetlight is normally meant to be a corpse, but it just renders with a texture over its hitbox.

Sexy

It's gibberish

It's called the Violence District for a reason.

月

Uploaded a video I took on November 5, 2011 of one of the cutscenes in the game just now. Forgot I had recorded and rendered it.
>youtu.be/-vdFB93SbMQ

Caption: "Music stopped when I got here"

The ground is transparent

The very starting Japanese inn. The walls are flesh. The ground is flesh. Everything is flesh.

>>1153394
Same spot

>>1153398
Same building, same textures, but at the start of this day the game was automatically making me look down. I could move forward/backward and turn/right but I couldn't look up.

A fog filter was over Kyoto, circa day 200

I CAN'T SEE SHIT

I STILL CAN'T SEE SHIT

>>1151137
I streamed it to some /v/idya bros for over 24 hours straight once. It was a really good time.

>>1153441
How far did you get? Do you still have your save?

>>1153446
I got far enough that I'm pretty sure I've seen everything (except all the different random patterns, of course). If I still have the save, it's on a computer that's a two hour drive from where I currently am, so I can't check.

>>1153449

>>1153451
Yeah all the areas and nearly all events can be seen pretty quickly. The most recent texture/pattern I've come across was in the neighborhood of day 190-220 and my current save is around day 240 so I think there's still come content left for me to find.

>>1151816
Never seen that texture before.

>>1152786
I like it when this happens. It only happens when you play with savestates for an extended period of time, so I doubt it's intentional.

>>1153512

Together, they make 東惑星--lit. "Eastern Star"

>>1153514
Wait it's planet, not star. My bad.

>>1151137
>so, what do you guys know about this game?
Yes, there have been many threads about it

If you are not discussing this game, spamming ugly screenshots won't help your cause.

>>1153553
I'm not OP

>>1153557
Stop spamming then assface

>>1153580
what is dumping
what is an imageboard

>>1153586

>implying anyone has an interest in these shitty ugly as fuck images

>>1153602
>But anon don't you want this dumb as fuck useless thread to be on the front page at all times?!?

Whoever's dumping images pls stop.

>>1153615
Seriously dude. The board is slow enough as it is. Can't you see this thread is useless and it's currently at the very top of the front page?

>>1153621
If it's upsetting you that much, just hide the thread.

Horribly stretched textures

>>1151306
I wouldn't say that. I think Yume 2kki was the worst of the three, but Yume Nikki and .flow are on the same level, except one's psychological horror and the other's body horror.

Evidence that you can score off of the chart. I've seen some people say it's impossible before.

>>1153637
It happened to me on like, day 24 or something.

Shit really has to hit the fan though.

any animated gifs?

>>1153648
Only gifs I have are from Eastern Mind/Chu-Teng

>>1153648

>>1151929
I think you're running afoul of a misconception. Most of the time, when people say a video game is "art", they're putting it on the pedestal of Fine Art(TM) and idolizing it. "See how moving this experience is. It is above ordinary games".

When people say LSD is "art", they tend to simply mean that the approach the designers took was literally not the same approach you use to make a video game, but is more closely related to the fucked-up kind of conceptual experimental shit done in procedurally-generated digital media art pieces.

In other words, it's closer to that kind of weird "art" than it is to a video game because the things you do in LSD don't matter. A game will provide you with some reason or incentive, however vague, to do most things. In LSD, the only reason to do anything is just to do it. To quote Whose Line, the points don't matter. Other games might throw in some stuff that you do for the sake of doing on the side to spice up the experience of the core game, but in LSD those things are it. There is no core game.

>>1152786

I've told this before, but once my game glitched out and I clipped through the dock in the violence district, and got to walk all over the ocean. I took some screencaps because I thought it was pretty cool but that was all on my old harddrive.

>>1152106
It blows my mind how people were able to notice such a reference. I don't even know where I should be looking at.

>>1153580
I like them. Hoping to come across something new because I've played this game a hella lot. hasn't happened yet

Have you guys ever seen the dragon/demon that comes from the cliff?

>>1155198
Yes. Never managed to get a pic of it, I don't think. It's at the same location as the castle in the floating crystal right?

>>1153602
>complaining about graphics
>on a retro vidya board

He guys, here's Osamu Sato's soundtrack for Chu-Teng, that very rare mystery game. I ripped it from my CD (european version :() so it's a very high quality rip, couldn't find it anywhere like this. There was a thread a couple of months ago to try to find the game. Mixes by Luke Vibert and FSOL!

http://rapidshare.com/share/7A4E835A8096B18C2B938AD332DF5B1B

>>1155308
Uh- just if you didn't know, they found the game.

>>1155308
That's really good work anon and I'm sorry that's there no real way to say this without disappointing you but someone put up high quality rips of the Chu-Teng OST back in April. ( >>1144848 )
Here's an old Pastebin from July with links >http://pastebin.com/NE1uFVJM

>>1155398
cool, thx
Did you play the game? What do you think?
>>1155413
cool, thx
I'm glad you're being honest with me, better to get this stuff out of the way ASAP, the longer you live in an illusion, the harder it gets to shake it off. I respect you for taking the responsibility to do so ;).
Also I posted it a couple of months ago too, but its a good enough album to be reposted sometimes anyways.

>>1155450
Personally I really like "Chu-Teng (Hungry Futurist Mix)", "A Spaceman Made of Stars" and "Didi-Shou-Chang". It's a rather enjoyable album. I guess I don't mind reposts then haha.

Use an emulator and take some screenshots of landscapes at 16:9
They make great wallpapers.

>>1155861

It just stretches it, doesnt render more to see.

>>1155927
Maybe if you use a shitty emulator.

>>1151794
>>1151806

My sister got this cutscene, she thought he was eating sausages.

>>1151137
It's pretty cool, and I'm glad I picked up a copy when I was in Japan a while ago.

>>1155861

>>1152782
I've spawned on top of buildings I've had to jump off of, so yeah maybe.

>>1153564
>>1153556

Has anyone translated this text or the text that appears on certain textures?

>>1151137
What you guys use to emulate this game?

>>1157797
Pretty much any PS1 emulator.

>>1157790
A lot of the dream texts are borrowed directly from the Lovely Sweet Dream book and those are all available in both English and Japanese. I think a few of the text dreams in the game aren't in the book and while some other anons and I have translated them in previous threads I doubt they were saved.
Pretty much they'll go something like this:
>(one translation I recall but don't remember 100%)
>There was a box in front of the window.
>It was the box from yesterday.
>Inside was the light of someone's soul.
>The light burst out.

>>1157790
Same guy (>>1158447) but the text seen on certain textures are all just gibberish. Sentence and word fragments devoid of any real meaning.

I know for a fact that a lot of the information on the Wikipedia article is false

I can't be arsed to change it though so whee

It's just fucking awesome how /vr/ came together to find easily and literally one of the rarest video games in existence. All thanks to a broken English anon who was like "yeah i've got this in my basement somewhere lol".

>>1158512
Yeah. Maybe we can work together and make some more breakthroughs with other rare games.

>>1158449
I thought they said like "Wall" and "Floor" and shit?

>>1158606
Well here it's literally 地 (lit. "ground") over and over again

>>1158827
Here it's 悪 (lit. "evil") over and over again

>>1158832
But when you get a bunch of small letters on the ground like this it's pretty much gibberish.
>いくらしい
>てるといるの
>ばっとくと、
>そこにがる。
>公園もしくる
>下の墳的だ。

>>1158838
>うろはに
>ほへとち
>りねるを

>>1158840
This might have some actual meaning though. Too much kanji I don't recognize so I'm not going to bother transcribing it unless someone particularly wants me to.

>>1158858
足音 (apparently lit. "footsteps")

>>1158860

Another one with a lot of text.

With >>1151820 I don't recognize the purple kanji but it's another example.

Also >>1153559 is cursive hiragana which for whatever reason is reversed for the texture. If I understand right they're meant to be written as personal messages of some sort (I think as a Shinto wish card?).

Okay so I guess I mispoke in saying it's all devoid of meaning because for a lot of the textures it's not complete gibberish. For some it is, though.

>>1158870
This is the one I was looking for. 顔 (lit. "face") is written on their faces.

>>1158874
豆 (lit. "beans"?)

>>1158881
裏表 (apparently "reverse side")
裏 means reverse/back/backside and 表 means surface/face (as in face of an object, not a person) so I'm not completely sure on this one

>>1158885
あ (a single syllable read as "ah", no meaning in of itself)

I hope this all helps anon

I paid 200 bucks to a Malaysian fluent in all sorts of Asian, everything checks out in English besides the Korean text you come across that's gibberish

>>1157659
Walk while looking down and you can survive the drop

>>1159491
No problem anon

>>1161150
Actually, here's a few more
This is in Korean so I can't read it, but I thought it was pretty anomalous given it's the only Korean in the game. Korean text in a Japanese game is like Russian text in an English game. Can't exactly read it, you know?

>>1161171
This one might be a bit difficult to read because it's red text as the screen was fading to red, but it says 死神 (shinigami, lit. "god of death"). Ever read/watch Death Note? Exact same phrase here.

A wooden wall at the front.
The room is narrow, however, it was built in 3 floors.
My room is on the third floor. Open the drawer, my clothes are there. The shops are selling popcorns and hotdogs to some of the people. They are enormously high just like the high-rise building. Getting back to my home in Kyoto which has become very beautiful after recently been renovation. My mother seemed very happy.

I enter the theater, even I dont form a shape
However theyre all together, the people that got invitation. I appreciate that I can enter as others would then have to come out. The seats of the theatre are completely full. Seems you can leave easily. The patron has this authority.
From the impression I give others, I'm not sure whether I’m a man or a lady.

A man is drinking wine and eating sausage,
Awakened from the scary thought after drinking the wine, the chef looks over.


He takes the elevator, going upto the room on the slope by the Bright Moon Cottage, the bed with the checkboard pattern, looking out from the widely opened window.

He has no choice but to choose to come here,
Paying the money.
Picking up the phone. Among the people.

Theres a whole lot more between the game and the book that just oozes with this sort of, material.

You have to remember this game is CERO D the highest rating you can get for a game, it has to be the only non sexually explicit overly non violent game to get this rating. Appreciate it

>>1162491
>There is a CERO Z my bad, but still for walking around a place with no real goal its strong, and a lot of material that is 18+ in the world is 15+ in japan, whatever this game rocks.

Eastern Mind is better than LSD

Maybe sort of vaguely related. This always comes to mind when I see LSD. It's one of Enigma's compilation albums. Since it's similarly trippy, I thought I would mention it.

I played LSD a while back, but I never got around to finishing it. There are so few actual areas to explore, and at some point, the game just loops you through them over and over again with different textures. I think I got as far as day 100 and decided the game wasn't going to show me anything new. By that time, all the areas were basically covered in kanji textures and nothing else.

Are their any writings intricately looking at the game? Something that talks about how the various systems in the game works and any secrets it may have? Any cool stuff?
There's probably some of that stuff talked about in here, but I was wondering if anyone or any anon has something more robust and complete.

I forced my gf to play this to day 30 in a sitting. I made up myths about various things in the game, like the Grey Man coming to murder people in real life if they touch him in the game etc.

Ohhh cool, I definitely have to read the book more in depth.

That's a really nice quality scan. Is there a link to download this? I have the Mike Nnemonic scan, which is definitely readable, but you can see the corners of the pages and the shadows at the spine of the book.

>>1165160
cooking sato project got kicked sideways with chu teng getting ripped and caught wind of a flash auction of it a month later led to leak oodles to /vr/, i wouldnt have that game if it wasnt for you skitzophrenics.

Going to be used in a sweet way first and with a blessing ill release it

bump
picture irrelevant

played it on epsxe....it's...redundant. not good.

but i got scared playing it once when i walked into the closest of my house and this wooden dude caught me off guard and made a-scared.

This is a demo video for LSD that I found on the game's official website not too long ago. It's an old video, so the quality isn't great, but it's definitely an interesting find.

it's a game based entirely around walking around and looking at things, but few things in it are actually visibly interesting

>>1172134
The stuff in that video... Completely new views on familiar locations.
The quality is indeed balls, but much appreciated nonetheless.

>>1172134

Appears to show what your character is that you play as, at 6 minutes.

That video is phenomenal. Thank you for uploading.

so is there ANY chance EVER that LSD will make it to PSOne Classics in the Japan import section?

Japan has had this in the PSN forever, and the online community around it is huge, why not just bring it on over, there's no real copyrights or such to tangle right?

So why is it called LSD?

>>1172585
We should just pressure Osamu Sato to make the sequel: Datura

>>1172695
Short explanation: it stands for "Lovely Sweet Dream" among other things because it's a game about dreams.

Longer explanation: It's a portmanteau (?) or double entendre (?) of the psychedelic drug LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) and the title of the book "Lovely Sweet Dream" which the game is based on. You go through a series of trippy dreams which you could argue is meant to resemble a trip on LSD. Also note the tongue-in-check nature of the "lovely sweet" bit of the title because as the game goes on there's nothing lovely or sweet about it.

And then a bunch of people come along saying the game is about weed and tote 420 blaze it comments everywhere.

>>1173325
Datura?

But being serious there's apparently a new PC version of LSD being developed by someone with a Tumblr so there's always that we can look forward to.

>>1173325
But there already is a game called Datura.

>also very ambient and explorable type game. have to check it out

Okay, a lot of people are saying it is too repetitive, and I agree, but it has a bizarre charm. It may seem repetitive at first glance, but I cannot stop playing it. I'm on Day 267. Once you think you've seen it all, you will see something knew. The map is actually almost open-world, and all of the places can be navigated with the map without linking. Once you discover the mysteries of the graph, and obsess over getting the glitch texture, then you will soon find yourself spending ten game days just waiting for the dying woman in the cottage to die or spend a large expedition across the vast expanses of the Natural World to see the sunken Violence District. Or maybe you realize that the Gray Man prolongs the dream in exchange for the quality of the textures. So to complete this journey that would take 5 game days of building textures and mapping the world, you can go to Happy Town and run around to summon the Gray Man. Maybe then you want to discover why the Alien logo thing keeps appearing. Maybe you hunt the spaceships that appear throughout the game. Maybe you decipher the exact mechanisms of the graph and measure how the previous dream affects the next. Maybe you try to find why some dreams are mysteriously shorter than the others, and why are you getting shot in the Violence District?

This is a game that looks repetitive until you get really really into it. Imagine your face when you realize your dreams can go off the graph. I don't really know how to explain what I'm trying to say, but yeah. It looks boring, but it has many intricacies.

>>1176771
I know more or less what's ahead of me in the game. But I can't play after day three. I DON'T want to see the Gray Man. Nothing fills me with more dread than the Gray Man. If I were to see the Gray Man one night walking through a wall and heading directly at me, I would....I would.

>>1176917
I wonder if the reason why the Gray Man starts appearing on day 4 is because 4 is an unlucky number in Japan.

>>1176932
Does he really only start appearing after day four?
I think I saw him appear in day one in a play through.

>>1172375
still haven't gotten around to reading it

>>1176950
Maybe it has something to do with bad emulation, kind of like how the water textures in the game don't display properly on most emulators. The only emulator I know of that doesn't have issues with the water is XEBRA.

>>1176932
>because 4 is an unlucky number in Japan.
Well "four" is pronounced identical to "death" (shi; 死、四) so that does make sense

>>1177052
4 is alternatively pronounced 'yon' cause of this.

>LSD Limited Edition

>>1177167
now that is interesting

>>1178859
In a thread months ago I remember an anon linking to someone's inactive Tumblr which had an eye-raping animated background where they claimed to have received a copy of LSD Limited Edition but all images were hosted on some weird image host and had long since been deleted.
I searched "tumblr" in my bookmarks and all I found was pic related so I have no idea where that page was.

>>1178920
The limited edition is the version that hit shelfs with a music CD, i think the original version was the game on its own but havent seen it anywhere.

Man, this game is just a big pile of NOPE for me. I can't stand nightmarish shit since having terrible nightmares that made no sense as a kid. Shit like trying to stop a penny from spinning, and having serious talks with the government about it. Then the universe itself was given to a man I couldn't see.

May not sound that bad but for some reason they left a lasting fear in me.

Anyway, yeah. This game reminds me of that.

>>1179578
I play horror games in broad daylight with people around me, it's okay.

>>1179653
I mean, normal horror games don't even bother me though. But it's just something about the way this game is. How nothing makes any sense whatsoever. Those bridges that end with a face. Those empty villages that look... Wrong...
Even those FMVs frighten me.

>>1180948
Aren't all the areas in the game connected?

>>1180996
Pretty much, yes. Other than a very few isolated spots, the only thing keeping you from being able to walk intentionally from any one point to any other is waking up.

>>1164965
Woah, can you upload all of the pages into a zip file on mediafire?

>>1151146

this.

>>1179578
the game ain't that scary, it's more disturbing than scary

I bought and chipped a PSone to play this game and a few others. I have about a half dozen CDRs burned with out anything written on them because I'm not sure if you can write on Taiyo Yudens.

Last night I had a dream that I went to play something, and not matter what CDR I put in, it was always LSD.

I forgot about that until I saw this thread.

>>1155993
saw this cutscene yesterday, and yes it was sausage.

bump

When I covered the eyes, nose and neck, the spaces turned green and all the fmvs started playing.
I couldn't skip it either so it was a bit annoying.

>>1181353
Like I said, it mostly scares me because it reminds me of my nightmares during my childhood.
The footstep sounds and music don't help either.

>>1185174
Yeah, that happens. It's meant to make you feel uneasy/etc. because the game is going off on its own and you have no control. I pretty much shat bricks when it first happened.

>>1151794
Post a link to that FMV pls.

WHAT THE FUCK DOES IT MEAN

Every day. This thread.

>Google

You're welcome.

These LSD threads are worse than fucking /x/ "LEL SO THIS GRIFTER THING GUYZ"

>>1186630
It's everyday because this thread has been up since October 22nd, you idiot.
Sorry for discussing games on /vr/ too.

I had a dream I found a copy of LSD at a Goodwill. Then I woke up. Haven't been that heartbroken in a long time.

here's another unique first person game that doesn't function at ~3fps

>>1186630
yeah i dunno. i played LSD for the first time probably 8 years ago, i spent a good amount of time on it and it was good fun but it definitely doesn't have as much content as people hype it up to and, well, it's just not as freaky or interesting as a lot of people thing it is. if people just like it because it's a weird quirky semi-obscure japanese game, then that's another thing i guess.

>>1189306
isn't this the effective precursor to the "endless ocean" wii games?
