Steamdeck should not be reason.  Sending the file might help.  

I was able to load up game.  For weak Hasami for end fight you must equip red string.

I did not have the problem with sound file though for shiny in rena chapter.

Hanyuu has time reverse rejunenate 1, 2 and 3.  Could text be too long to see the digits for II and III?

There few more short chapters in the first area.  -after chapter i think you need good end of before midnight. Order 34 is if get hanyuu miracle stuff done.

I glad you like tomitake quest.  There a lot of small quests like that in the game if you see hints to their unlocks.

But satoshi and irie sub chapters is as far as i got, i planned for more in that area.

Do you have twitter or discord, i can send spoiler hints of looking for more.

You missing 3 major chapter (2 natsumi ones, 1 satoko one)  and drowning chapter.  I think if you do the orbs they open, drowning chapter is other choice in catkilling.

There even more after that.

After the bell, means its the end one, that fight has two versions both easier then the challenge one.  I see if i  can get my old pc running, it the only one i can work on my game with, i fix sound file and look at the fight to give a walkthrough for the fight. 

If you fighting her early, you need levels and item that protects versus instadeath.   early fight is there for a challenge.

 if facing her after pool yokai, there different dialog to get easier version or even method not to fight her.

Reality chapter longest chapter and a lot of conversations between other students.  Gaining levels really makes game easier, just 1 level can really make difficulty change.

Thanks for finding that bug of the missing audio file.  

Satoko low hp as well you can use take home on her if you got that ability.  Usually it is Mion damaging move that gives trouble.  I cannot off-hand remember which gear offers stun resistance but there some out there.  You can just be unlucky with RNG.

I like the play by play, as i said, a lot of people play the game but rarely talk of their experience.

in that rena chapter,  the map actually close representation of the shirakawa-go that hinamizawa based on, i actually went there, but i spent all my day in old part of town instead of checking out irie clinic and keiich house. 

The dump map different in each choice and even the story changes if let mion handle rina.

Cat-killing you can choose not to go to the out of way village and get a complete differeny story about satoko and keiichi.

Like to hear how you like each chapter and each of the characters.

Mion chapter are manga redraws with coloring i did when game was made over a decade a go.  When you get to chapters that never got offical english translation or unique there will be less anime images.

The game is more closely to manga and the vn than the anime.  This game takes place in timeframe of kai (2nd season), but as you finish chapters, you find the first season of the anime reflected by a different method, you see orbs rather than kakera to click for these.  Finishing chapters unlock new content plus different treasures in all chapters including the freeplay sandbox where you find rarer stuff and new character unlocks.  There also different endings to chapters that effect the rest of the game.

If you started with the rika puzzle chapter, it quickest way to other chapters by quickly having a bad end.  Someone who seen higu will realize a bad end will be coming if they pick the Rika choice. Rika chapter does not stop at Mion's minigame though, if you either super lucky or figure out how to beat mion, there are still more puzzles.  If you are hard up figuring the next one which most people do, you can return with x-ray specs to cheat, as rika would likely cheat ;)

If you need help or hints, i will be here.  There is a lot in this game. 

You can find that kenta-kun, though it will be like 1 out 100 odds per dig, plus its a nice prize if you are lucky.

I use to help translate japanese to english, most of them game was created from a japanese source chapter but I think it would be too much of an undertaking to reverse it.

Most of these chapters are available to read in orginal vn or manga searchable but the romanji titles.  The unique chapters or choices i could try to write a japanese summary if needed.

Thank you for playing my game.  Send e-mail to kaopse@yahoo.com, i send you a japanese Higurashi game.  [メールでひぐらしのなく頃にの日本のゲームを入手]

I am working on fixing any errors and the Investigators but also like feedback on how the games went with these ancient ones.

I have recently have been going through to fix the cards.  Should just be location and characters to fix.  For some reason they were 640x480, i think they suppose to be 1500x 1200 or something, i am going to have to download a new template.  I do have older copies near that size but deciding to remake them to fix text, since an update somehow tampered with the fonts.  My new laptop seems to be able to use font propery and hopefully when angled it does not get blurry.

I knew eye injury was blurry from resized, i rewrote the cards now.

Tell me of any cards beside investigators and location are still blurry.  I have not check the fan edit file yet, i will be going through that as well.

I noticed some text cut off and some bugs with game over screen when on the phone.  i am planning to fix them.

I am using the game on android by the following programs

You can play on the PHONE through JoiPlay and downloading rpgmaker vx apk.

Apk

Despite being downloaded from various sites way over 1000 times, I can count on my hand people who actually came back with feedback or to tell me their playthrough.

Though my game gets many downloads from various places I host it, I rarely hear back from players.  I like to know player's experience with the game and if any errors or bugs.  I like to support if game gets streamed as well.  It only when it gets attention that I tend to work to add more to the game.

For someone who likes higurashi it provides some unique arcs and twists.  

I am a big collector of higurashi items, here is my collection.  It always growing~♥
