    Tokihogushi has been released!  The next one is going to be Miotsukushi Omote.  Expect that to take a while because it's an absurdly long arc.

    Project Introduction
    This project aims to take all 10 arcs exclusively found on the PS2/DS/PS3 releases of Higurashi When They Cry and port them to PC with full English translation.  It will include the script, graphics, and audio assets from the PS3 version of Higurashi for maximum quality.  This will be done as a mod for Mangagamer's Steam re-release of Higurashi, which makes use of the tech in MG's new Higurashi engine to simplify the porting process, and also directly supports the official release.  
    Mangagamer is officially releasing English translations of all of the arcs from the various PC releases of Higurashi on Steam.  However, a company called Alchemist made the PS2, DS, and PS3 versions of Higurashi and they added a number of new arcs to the game with each release.  There are 10 new arcs in total, a mix of side stories, what-if scenarios, adaptations of manga arcs, arcs that develop characters that didn't get enough screentime, and an alternate ending for the entire series.  None of those have ever received an official English release, and likely never will because Alchemist went bankrupt in 2016.  So this project will hopefully give Higurashi fans an opportunity to finally read these arcs in English, some of which date back as early as 2007.
    Here is the Project Website on GitHub for the Higurashi Console Arcs project.
    Right now I'm the primary person contributing to the project, but I'm currently recruiting anyone willing to help.
     
    Progress
    Someutsushi arc - 100% complete Kageboushi arc - 100% complete Tsukiotoshi arc - 100% complete Taraimawashi arc - 100% complete Yoigoshi arc - 100% complete Tokihogushi - 100% complete Miotsukushi Omote - starting now Tokihogushi has been released, bringing the total to 6/10 translated.  The next arc will be Miotsukushi Omote.
     
    Recruitment
    I'm looking for a translator, a translation checker, and an editor or two to help out with the remaining arcs.  The project will get done significantly faster, and with better quality if I have some other people helping me out.  Let me know if you're interested in contributing!

    Just an update to say this project isn't dead.  Progress is slow, but things are still coming along.
    I'm currently 85% through translating Kageboushi and aiming to have a proper release by the end of the year.

    I could probably do the TLC. I've went through Sui a couple of months back, for better or worse - and while there's a lot of bad in there, there are some arcs that definitely deserve a translation, like the Natsumi and Tomoe ones.
