    The eagle-eyed of you may have spotted that, yes, the lovely graphic at 12:38 is sadly wrong. That character should belong in the "da" position. Not sure how I did that!

    Hey everyone! Thanks for the positive reception to this video!
    For those interested about the progress made since September, the character for "NU" was found on the carpet in that footage at 17:01 on the 9th of January this year.
    The character for "DI" was not given a space on our original cipher because it's a rare kana sometimes considered outdated, so we didn't expect it to show up. But Little King's Story actually used it on one of the letters and we somehow missed it! Well, not entirely. I included it mistakenly as "PYU" in our WIP cipher at 13:09, missed it from the final cipher, and forgot about the character completely until I was looking at this old cipher again during editing. We gave it another look a few days ago (7th of February) and confirmed it as DI !
    And finally, through some datamining, it was discovered that we had gotten the number 9 completely wrong, and what we were looking at was a stylised number 4! In fact, there doesn't appear to be a used number 9 in the game!
    Now all we have left are "PI" and the yōon forms of "O" and "U"!
    Edit: At 12:35 I made a complete doodoo error. That is the character for "DA", I have no idea why I put it in the "DE" space 😂

    Could you do a video comparing little kings story and new little kings story and discuss stuff like changes, history, why New little kings story is so different. And if new little kings story is actually good and more?

    • @DeadweightLKS
      @DeadweightLKS  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Been planning on it for a long while, talking about how NLKS got made, trying to explain what's so bad about it, and going into its legacy. So yes, if you're hoping for something like that, all I can say is stay tuned for now :)
      EDIT: One of the reasons I've put it off is because I've not been able to play the game, despite my efforts, which I'll go into in detail in the video. That said, I have had to research the game a lot for, well, you can guess, the wiki and such. I'll be bringing up news articles and interviews and such to get to the bottom of it
