Finally playing on Android

[Sonic#]

When the Android version of Touch came out, I was excited and fully intended to play it, but I realized after release that my phone was too old. I searched for ways to play it, but I had no luck. I was thwarted from playing a 25+ year old game by my sticking with a 6 year old phone.

After my old phone stopped charging via the USB port, I decided it was time to finally update. With a new phone, my first purchase was Lunar: SSST. I got through the White Dragon Cave yesterday.

So far, it's good! I love all the graphics and audio options. The script seems mostly what I remember with a few touch-ups; no strong opinions there yet. I'm already fascinated by the game again. My one story-significant thought so far is how Quark addresses Luna individually first. His address to Alex, in comparison, only happens because they completed the dragon trial. It feels like Alex has to earn the dragon's attention, whereas Luna already has it. (And it doesn't seem like Quark notices Nall at all, something I think we've talked about before.)

My only friction with this version is the mobile controls for movement, but this is probably because of my lack of experience playing on mobile. After an hour, the movement feels OK.

I noticed the touchups myself. I think they wanted to keep the game as true to the WD version as they legally could. (Played SSST alongside a friend who was going through SSSC)

Honestly though, I got the impression Quark was gonna address everyone one at a time, but Ramus spoke up about the Dragon Diamond thinking back put the trial forward. Luna as you said though grabbed his attention first though thinking about it, but wasn't that true in the original game too?

This was also my recollection, unless I'm misunderstanding Sonic#? As in pausing seeing Luna but getting interrupted by Ramus?

There's a new update that seems to really improve the touch screen experience for some. But the game does allow you to use an external controller if you're really so inclined.

^ I just saw the patch go through! I'll try out the path controls soon.

And thanks for mentioning the controller support. I've never played games much on mobile, so I've never thought of actually using a controller. It's good to know that support is there.

I'm happy to hear this is on Android. More people being exposed to it might help the fandom, but i'm not a mobile game player. I try not to be on my phone all the time or extended periods to play an rpg. A few simply phone games here and there and check my messages

The android version...you will be very sad whenever you hear butchered Wings and butchered Nocturne.

The vocals were good! I just relistened to the Boat Song. I like the new lyrics, and the singing quality was good too. No, it's not the words I was singing in my head, but that's OK.

Also, the Android/iOS version has Japanese tracks if the change in the English version bothers you.

They're the same songs used in the PSP release, for anyone reading this thread.

And yes, there is an option to use the Japanese audio track (something it sounds like will be in GungHo's re-release too).

I've said it before and i'll say it again... The PSP dubbed SUCKED
