I pulled out Sony Santa Monica’s lovely little game “
Hohokum” last night for the first time in a while. Found a few more friends. Today I booted it up again and flew around in the carnival area for a while. Last night I’d been wondering if all the alien text in it was translatable; turns out it is.

If I recall correctly, there’s text in various other screens, too. I wonder if any of it will be more enlightening than the stuff in the carnival zone? Probably not. I may update this post as I find ‘em, or I might just keep it to myself as I keep playing. This is a game that should be a little bit mysterious, IMHO.
