Easter Eggs

Revision as of 12:50, 1 March 2014 by >Menalath (→‎Unimplemented features: reformat)

Below is a listing of various easter eggs within the game.

Compass-chan Surprise

When you get a ship drop, extend the window and click on the upper left third of the black area (the cursor will change to a hand) to get the COMPASS-CHAN CLASSICAL DANCE PARTY.

It seems to have been removed during december and had several conditions to start it in a normal way:

  1. Put Mogami as flagship.
  2. Get a perfect S victory on a boss node.
  3. Type "DANCE<enter>".
  4. The fairy from the catalog appears, click on her to start it.


Non-functional repair cancellation dialog

The "cancel repair" dialog is a function that is likely removed from the game. After placing ships in the repair dock, stretch the game window horizontally until there's a significant amount of wide black space on the left and right sides. Clicking on the space on the left will display the dialog, which does not actually cancel anything if "yes" is selected. Note that selecting "yes" also causes various bugs to occur.

Reclicking the black space again (by cancelling the window for the first time and clicking on the black space again) will sometimes show not an "undefined" ship but also a random ship that is currently in your possession (it can even show a ship that is currently going on an expedition).

Bug bouncing in the visual gallery

The fairy (with the books on her head) in the gallery also has a bug on top. If you click on the fairy, the bug will bounce, and sometimes fly away. There has been a mini-game where some people see how many times they can click on the bug before it flies off (record on the Japanese Wiki seems to be 78 times).

Unimplemented features

By taking apart the flash game client, one can discover features that are unimplemented, or have been cancelled.

Unimplemented items
Equipment category selection screen at development screen
In-game message sprites
離脱成功 (Withdrawal success) suggests that some kind of escape mechanism may have been cancelled.
Messaging system
Sortie node events
When reaching a node some events can happen:
  1. Whirlpool: 司令官!うずしおが発生しました!
  2. Huge wave: きゃーっ!! 高波が発生しました!
  3. Bad weather:
    1. 悪天候でこれ以上は進めません。 帰還しましょう! (We can't advance because of the bad weather, let's go home!)
    2. 前方に悪天候が発生していますね。 迂回して進むことにしましょう! (We see bad weather before us. Let's take a detour!)
  4. Octopus: おや…大きなタコさんが何かを持ってきましたよ! (Oh, a big octopus is carrying something!)
