Dead on arrival



<span class="bold">Corpse Party</span>, a spooky adventure about the occult backfiring on some meddling teenagers, is now available with GOG Galaxy support for achievements and statistics, DRM-free on GOG.com.

High school is where teenager shenanigans usually reach the peak of self-endangering recklessness. And when a magic charm accidentally transfers a group of friends to the ghostly past of Heavenly Host Elementary, they've only got themselves to blame for their misfortune. But fortunately for us, we get to follow them through a series of gruesome happenings, otherworldly interactions, sinister puzzles, and gut-wrenching decisions. The story features multiple endings, as plentiful as the various iterations of this horror cult-classic which now gets its definitive PC edition, full of reworked assets and enriched story elements.



Here's your blood-stained invitation for a macabre but curiously intriguing <span class="bold">Corpse Party</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com. Please bring your own body parts.

Exceed20XX: Things like Song of Saya aren't under Xseed's control so the respective publisher (JAST) would have to want to step over here first.

Gersen: Well at least JAST is DRM-free friendly too, so it could makes thing a little easier, and they recently started releasing stuff on Steam and not just exclusively on they shop so it might also help having them release stuff here.

jamesbuc: So... this isnt seen as niche while the Cave shumps were rejected as being too niche?

Gersen: Honestly, as much as I am very happy to see this game released here I have to agree. Still have troubles understanding why GoG rejected classic Caves games for being too niche while at the same time accepting much more obscure games including other shumps.
The question there will more likely be "Will they be turned away?" perhaps. I'm also still upset about the rejection of Cave's games as well.

Degica made it sound like they wanted to somehow pursue another DRM-free venue if GOG didn't pick up but it looks like after being turned down here they never pushed through with that. Degica does however have Crimzon Clover on sale here now within the arcade bundle so I hope one day they get to expand their catalog here. They have some good shmup gems under their publishing and the Cave games are tops in the field.
Thanks to Sabin_Stargem and Lodium for the pointers to child-friendly games, especially the Anime-style ones. My daughter's love of this Japanese art form has come out of the blue, and nobody in the family has any experience, so the guidance was appreciated.
My only complaint is that this version does not use the same character art in the dialogue scenes as the PSP version.

I may buy this version in the near future. I hope the sequels get released too on GOG.
With the sale going on, didn't notice that this gem was released. Thanks gog be sure to get more of these kinds of games :)

No problem. Back in the 90's when I first started to experience anime, adults had no grasp that anime wasn't a medium just for children. Thus, I ended up renting several things from the library that were a decade or two above my age bracket. Didn't do me any harm beyond going "Huh?", but I suspect most of the elders around me would have been displeased.

I recommend getting a Crunchy Roll subscription - they are a service that specializes in anime television, so they have a far more comprehensive offerings than Netflix and the like.

Corpse Party getting a Linux version:
http://xseedgames.tumblr.com/post/143762369655/corpse-party-pc-programming-blog

"the game will have a Linux port, and be able to run in SteamOS. Functionally, the Linux version of Corpse Party will be 100% identical to the Windows version, but you’ll be able to play it on a wider variety of systems, including Steam Machines!"

Fairfox: Gogie updates seem to be slower, which is a shame. Not that I even own the game (yet)...

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Wait, the game has an update?
I can't even find a changelog or anything on Steam.
