How To Install Games:
Download Some Freeware Ones From Here. ( I reccomend trying out Narciss)

Game Files (nscript.dat, arc.nsa, default.ttf etc.), jusy below the SD card first creates a directory named ons (eg / sdcard / ons), for each game below that directory (the name is any) to create (eg / sdcard/ons/game1) Please put in it. ONScripter can choose when you start the game. Archive (arc.nsa) and change the resolution, please do not copy the original file intact. Font, for example,IPA fontsfor P and I recommend viewing the Gothic.

Additional Info:

• The game screen resolution is automatically adjusted to fit the display resolution. The color depth is converted to 16bit internally.
• Running in the background rendering, so the screen is locked, even if you do not progress to the AUTO mode. Music is played.
• Pressing the power button while ONScripter in the foreground, onDestroy () is called for by issuing ONScripter SDL_QUIT ends. HOME while running in the background by pressing the button, press the power button but the process will continue.
• Off to the right margin on the game screen display (black areas), if there is a software button is placed in the table above.
• Play has been disabled.

How do you install these games exactly.
When I went to the download section of narcissu.insani.org, it has an win32 binary, osx, linux86 and the japanese ones. Also a onscripter source.
What am I suppose to do to install?
Quick tutorial please!

hmm... it's just me or my text ingame was messed up??? I use engrish patch for my FSN and the text was... unreadable...

@Two username above me,
first, install to your computer, if your OS was Linux-based, install from linux86. If your Computer was Windows-based, install win32 binary...
second, install apk file..(You know what is this, don't you?)
third, copy all these fresh installed to your onscripter folder eg.(eg /sdcard/ons/Insani) if you dont have the ONS Folder, just create a new ones...
finally, just run ONscripter from the menu and choose the game.. if you want to play another VN, just redo the step and vice-versa...
hope this'll work on you all.

Oh, and this is the latest one i use right from the official web:
http://onscripter.sourceforge.jp/android/ONScripter-20110619-debug.apk
http://onscripter.sourceforge.jp/android/ONScripter-20110416-1byte-debug.apk
install from your File Manager like Astro...


*EDIT*
The first game that was using ONScripter from android-based is Noesis (too bad it wasn't Engrish).
You can free download from the market, this is the link:https://market.android.com/details?id=jp.cutlass.noesis
