Welp, it seems this game will never be translated, so I'm playing it using RetroArch awesome AI translation feature. It requiers some setup, but works well enough. I'm able to follow the story alright, gameplay is also not an enigma. Seems like a cute little game with a lot of heart that brings me back into simpler days of gaming, when PSP was alive.

Just a bit cumbersome for a fast reader like me to wait several seconds each time for the text to pop up, but I can listen to nice jap audio in the meantime, so it's not all bad.
I'll look for how to do this, better than waiting for translation or remake

That's awesome! I'm glad it's finally getting release. Can you provide any screenshots of your work if you can?
Also it's ok that you're taking care of your mother man.

First, i hope your mother and you are doing well.
Second, is march already. I'll not ask for a patch that probably is not ready yet for all kinds of reasons, but if you could post a status update like: "i'm in hiatus, i'll continue later" or "i did this, i need more time" would be awesome

Sorry, but I don't think this project will ever come to reality, it's been over 2 years and not even a screenshot or a video has been posted?!
I do not believe anymore!!!

Hi. Hope you and your family are good and well.
If i can choose, i would like to see the patch of chapter 1 of Ark.

If you could answer other questions, it would be nice:
1 - Are you working on this patch alone?
2 - You're doing the hacking, translation, graphics and playtest?
3 - Do you need help with something? (i'm not an experienced hacker or translator, but i can help with graphics editing if needed, i did help with other translations before)
4 - how much progress would you say you achieved?
5 - Why don't you focus on one game, and after it is done, go to the other?

ps: if you'd like to get some help, i can get in touch with you through some other means, and we can share tools and divide tasks for the both of us. I've been thinking on working on Shining Ark myself, so i'll probably get to it and create a personal project in case i get no answer. No offense, but if i can be honest, this thread doesn't strike much confidence.

    Also somebody is remaking it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's been there for a long time, too. People who search for lost media don't look hard enough lmao.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, also the pico 2 demos used to be only for the newgrounds patrons but they are on internet archive too (https://archive.org/download/picos_school_2)

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Iirc the demos were removed from newgrounds in 2022
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, or well only the demo with mindchamber's style was on newgrounds

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, FNF sucks, their community is toxic as hell.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @SylverReZ its a single player game
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, Yea but it has a shitton of mods with their own songs and stuff
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @The Real Jdbye, and quite a lot of people involved in those mods get cancelled
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Newgrounds wasn't the birth of FNF; rather, it was games where you beat up celebrities and parodies.

    FNF was born from Game Jams
