Ace Attorney Online

Mods, if you see this, PLEASE read the whole post before deciding whether to delete it or leave it. The LAST thing I want is trouble on this site because people neglect to read the entire post. This has happened to me in the past, so that's why I posted this block of text. Thanks, and I hope you understand.

Ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to announce my biggest AAO project EVER: Danganronpa VS Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney!

"Danganronpa" is an EXTREMELY DARK detective-style visual novel series, in which the overall premise involves 15-16 high school students trapped in their own school, and the only way out is to kill someone without being discovered. As Danganronpa is meant for audiences 17 years of age and older due to the blood, gore, and semi-sexual content, I will do my absolute BEST to minimize this for an attempted "T-Rated" experience.

As for "Ace Attorney"... Do I really need to explain?

The fan game will have five cases, with a sixth bonus case to be released after the main game is released. The main game is still in its early stages of development, but I'll update this post as more information becomes available!

Unlike most of the trials on this site, I am going to combine ALL cases (with the exception of the Bonus Case) into ONE, FULL game. I will NOT, however, be releasing cases as they are completed (I want to focus on getting everything completed BEFORE releasing it, so you guys don't have to wait TWO MILLION YEARS for me to finish all the cases after one is complete. All cases will be released at once, so the wait time will not be longer than it needs to be).

However, in order to ensure that this project gets completed as soon as possible, I'm gonna need a LOT of help.

Here's what I mainly need:

-Sprite makers, editors & animators (Several of the sprites are not animated, they're still images. I need to make sure this fan game is as smooth as possible; therefore, if possible, I would like these images to be pixelated and animated. Furthermore, there will be times during the game where the characters who have these sprites will be behind the bench, whether by co-counsel or representing attorney; therefore, if this is to happen, custom sprites will need to be made if none exist.)

-Background artists and editors (I might need some backgrounds made for missing scenes, so any help with that would be appreciated!)

-Voice Actors (Basically, I need actors for 4 characters, all of which are from the Danganronpa games. You might need to find walkthroughs in order to hear what their English voices sound like. These characters are: Makoto Naegi, Kyoko Kirigiri, Byakuya Togami, and Aoi Asahina. *FYI: these are their names in the games' Western localizations. If you want their anime/manga names, you can just flip the first and last names; given name and surname are flipped when compared from Western Naming Culture to Eastern Naming Culture.)

Like I said before, I'll update this thread once more info is available. If you are interested, PM me and we'll discuss more details! In the meantime, I hope you like this announce trailer I put together for you!

Have an amazing day, and stay safe, everyone!

EDIT: changed the link due to technical difficulties on the file hosting websites.

Very much like the custom graphics you've used here, I'll keep an eye out for this.

I respect how passionate you are about this project. The dedication REALLY shines through when you pointed out how fans generally despise waiting for new cases, especially since we are all suffering from Ace Attorney's first ever Super Metroid - Metroid Fusion/Prime style hiatus, without any clear information on a much needed new game such as Ace Attorney 7.

Granted, as much as I don't like Danganronpa, I would like to voice one, maybe multiple characters if you like my auditions. I'd like to know how to apply, although I most likely won't go beyond voice actor, as I have other things to attend to, including writing fancases of my own. Hope you get some other volunteers!

that is very ambitious. if this works out i hope this encourages others to push the limits and boundaries that this site and game engine is capable of. i will definately keep my eye on this project. i wish i could contribute. but i'm not a voice actor, animator, drawer etc etc etc.

Hello, everyone!

I may not be 50% done with this, but I still want to share my planned release year. Of course, plans change all the time, so the year might change later on as well.

In any case, here's a prologue trailer I made for you guys!

Hope this satisfies everyone!

Spoiler : :

The Trials and Tribulations Jingle keeps looping throughout the trailer!

That isn't a problem for me. Anyone else have that problem?

I really enjoyed the trailer! Sounds like this is gonna be fun! (Also, if you need Monokuma sprites, I redirect you here!)

Hey, guys!

Just here to provide an update. Progress is going slow, but it's getting there. Life is getting to me already.

I have something else to ask though: Anyone fluent in Japanese and English on this forum? I want to translate this into Japanese, but I want the language to be as accurate as possible (and include the Japanese names for all the AA characters). I might need some help with this should this idea come to fruition, as neither I nor Reddit user DawCrap1989 have any fluency in Japanese. If anyone wants to help, I'll really appreciate it!

So, it looks like I should update you guys on what's going on.

As you probably noticed by the newest YouTube video, I have finally gotten some help from a friend of mine, Reddit user DawCrap1989. He is someone who tends to be more active on Reddit with... politically controversial issues, but that doesn't make him any less of a person.

Furthermore, I will say this: don't judge people by their politics; judge them by their actual personality, which may include politics, and I hope you guys will understand that "guilt by association" should only be limited to people who align with those who actively go out of their way to hurt people. Showing support for your favorite candidate does not equate being on the far-left or far-right, and it should absolutely not be a deal-breaker in friendships.

That's all I will say with that. Hopefully this will be okay, and hopefully DawCrap1989 will help as much as he can with this project!
