EVE Burst Error

The first real masterpiece by Kanno, EVE is a very nice thriller you get to experience with two different POVs. It has everything you should expect: great plot, awesome visuals, and incredible soundtrack courtesy of Ryu Umemoto.

There was an English Windows release that featured redone visuals and removed the H-scenes. Unfortunately, its script is pretty terrible. It adds a lot of profanity and crude jokes juste for the sake of it, including a incredible number of references to the Clinton/Lewinsky scandal. There also are quite a lot of typos, bizarre phrasing, and questionable localizations (replacing ramen with Hawaiian pizza and still calling it "Japanese cuisine"???). Retranslating a game that huge would take years, so I adopted an hybrid approach: the script is ported, than compared to the original so everything that was made up is removed, and the derps are corrected in the process. Only the H-scenes will have to be done from scratch. Even that way, I assure you this is no small task.

Thanks to ikun35's great work, we have a new toolset for C's Ware games at our disposal that allows the porting to be quicker and more effective. Not to mention we managed to dump the whole Windows script, which is way easier to use than the Asenheim version. As a result, 80% of the text is now ported as of January 2026. There still is a lot of work to be done for cleaning, debugging, and correcting misalignments, but the game-breaking bugs and memory overflows are not to worry about anymore.
