Rocknroms added some doujin PC games today.

Pocket Kanon & Air

Puzzle de Wahhou

Doujin games are made by amateur groups, not by official game publishers.
And many of doujin games are also adult games. Actually, the original Kanon and Air (not Pocket Kanon & Air) are adult adventure games.

Are Doujin/Adult games allowed?
Should they be separated from official games?

I've asked this eons ago and there were no problem.
Most of Doujin shooters are better than the storm of shit we see in the last decade. Also Karous and Radirgy are Doujin then released officially on DC, NGC and so on.

By the way I think that adult games has to be avoided unless they were produced by a company.

PS: Studio Siesta Trouble Witches was released in arcades too (under Capcom if I remember well, as they did with Fate series).

PS2: Now I'm dumping EGS ones. Chantelise was adapted to XBOX as Tenerezza. Gunners Heart if I'm not on mistake was released with the same title for PS2.

In the PC there isn't a distinction between "official" and "unofficial" games like in the consoles, since you don't need a license to legally publish games... so I think every game that comes in an original pressed CD/DVD should be allowed and treated the same way.

I see, Rocknroms and r09.
Certainly, it's senseless to classify PC games by makers or doujin groups.

It could be added an option in "Category" for Doujin, but it will be a mess. Some groups now are companies (see also Factor5 in Europe) and you will get confused.

At the end IMO many Doujin games are superior to a lot of dust produced here in Europe on in USA.

Asapy can you fix with right names these? (Other ones should be right):

http://redump.org/disc/7058/ (I think this is the English translation)
http://redump.org/disc/7040/

I see you fixed this http://redump.org/disc/7065/, but the author himself seems to call it Zangyura (http://www.platinedispositif.net/games/_zangyura.htm everybody always called it like this, but probably everybody is wrong).

I fixed for the two.

For http://redump.org/disc/7065/, the japanese on the official site and shops says only "maid-san wo Migi ni" (Move the maid to right).
zangyura seems to be an old internet slang from a game magazine, Gamest.
i dunno why the author named the page as zangyura.

Everything you can buy that is not delivered on a home-burned CD/DVD, but on a real "pressed" media is eligible to be added to the database big_smile

I have the same opinion, but we have to avoid PC non-ludic software.
I have also this suggestion: a mixed category for all the bonus CDs included with non CD-rom software. Example: some mini-cd included with Super Famicom games, X68k Final Fight bonus CD, and so on. They are not so many, so they can be archived with Redump method.
