Mahou no Shoujo Silky Lip (Mega-CD)Source code on GithubTen-year-old Lip is just a below-average student at magic school, seemingly destined for mediocrity. But that all changes when she's abruptly summoned before the Supreme Warlock and selected as a candidate to become the next queen of the Land of Magic! Sent to the Human Realm for training, Lip must learn human customs, navigate new relationships, and – of course – use her magic powers to overcome (and cause) many problems. Can Lip earn enough assessment points to beat her rival, the mighty and aristocratic mage Isabella, and take the throne? Mahou no Shoujo Silky Lip (Magical Girl Silky Lip) is a 1992 adventure game for the Sega Mega-CD, developed and published by Telenet Japan under their Riot brand. Heavily inspired by magical girl shows of the '70s and '80s, it features the novel framing device of formatting the game into "episodes" in the style of a television series, complete with opening and ending theme songs. Though it has an explorable overworld and some semblance of RPG elements, a large focus of the game is its distinctive emotion-based conversation system: the player chooses between angry, sad, and happy responses, with the results affecting both Lip's "emotion levels" and overall score, which in turn influences the ending (a concept sometimes cited as a precursor to Sakura Taisen's "LIPS" system). This patch fully translates the game into English. It also attempts to improve general playability by cleaning up some of the clunkiest aspects of the interface and adding an in-game map. See the readme included in the download for more information.
