Hi フォックスライダー,

Once again we are working on a Japanese version of our coming title Outshine.

Just like Epistory and Nanotale, Outshine will work with companion words which are romanized versions of the words you have to type in Japanese.

Thanks to you we learned a bit more about Japanese localization while developing our typing game and now we understand that there are different ways to romanize it. There is the Hepburn romanization that generally follows English phonology with Romance vowels. But also the Nihon-shiki romanization originally invented for Japanese and his modified variant the Kunrei-shiki.

So our question is: What romanization Japanese would prefer in Outshine?

Please, if you are a player from Japan, vote using that Google form.

Here are a few in-game examples so you can better decide. The Hepburn is used in Nanotale while the Nihon-shiki is used in Outshine.
