Only if they have their assets intact else I don't get how else.

+1 for Otomedou! This one was especially good...

Velvet React is going to EOS on June too, but I don't know if that would be possible since it has gaming elements too, battles etc.

I hope some programming genius can extract the data from Velvet React and make an offline version. I'll miss my husbandos Suo and Ebizome.
Although the VR Reddit group already recorded the entire game, it would be a great help to have the app. I would even pay for that version if it existed.

OMG this would be an awesome project, imagine reviving the Shall we Date games?? There's already Shall we date?: Scarlet Fate+ ~Fragments of the Past~ so maybe it's not impossible

@Vice it's been a while...or maybe it's me that's been gone for so long . But good for you for wanting take on this huge project. I wish I had the time and tools to help you. Besides not having the tools to help, if there is anything else I can do, please let know.

Just saw this post. This is so sad. I've been playing some of these since I was in school.

This is sadly one step close to EOS. The story is really good too. Very depressing news.
The data have been extracted by fans apparently (from what I saw online) so converting the story on pc could be possible?

Although the news saddens me... I think Velvet React H scenes were better than Noctilucent, which were similar to Nu Carnival
I always say, why are these Kawai BL Gacha games dying? While that horrible Yokai Legends BL Gacha game is still alive, how annoying

Yes this is so sad because Yokai Legends is AI slop. Noctilucent has very beautiful art.

May I ask how this will work? Is it like Scarlet Fate 4 or Monochrome Heaven where fans rebuilt the games from scratch on a different engine? That would be very impressive!

A lot of mobile games have been shut down, I don't know if it's possible to get the resources for them anymore T^T There are only video recordings.

If it's not a browser game or has complicated elements like animations etc, can just get the sprites, cg, music if voice acting etc, and program them in another engine, this bl game for example was ported to renpy. https://vndb.org/r125494
Hiiro kakera 4 was ported to tyranoscript.
Rejet or official companies port their games to unity.
So I guess if it's only a visual novel story it's not that difficult just need basic programming skills and add the sprites music voices backgrounds etc. Some engines or new programs might not need programming too and have the commands there for you to copy paste.
Now animations or rpg game elements is another thing.
But have to get the cg, bgm, scripts and everything before the game EOSes i guess and server shuts down.
