Willy Wombat (Saturn) English Translation/Improvement

[irkella irkella]

Came across this translation recently, although it was released back in December:
Willy Wombat English Improvement Patch (Github)

Looks like it's currently missing from the Repo.

This patch translates a number of game menus/screens that are in Japanese. It does not currently translate Japanese subtitles during character dialogue, but these dialogues feature English-language voiceovers.

I've uploaded both a raw .chd file and a zipped bin/cue format patched using the xdelta version of the 1.0 patch, until it finds it's way onto the Repo.

This looks so sick.

This looks so sick.

I've only played a bit, but it has a pretty charming energy.

It actually reminds me a lot of Grandia's overworld elements in both design and controls, which is interesting.

Oh ok, I'm a bit of a sucker for mascot platformers, if it's got the charm, it's time sound off the play alarm. 'ding ding ding!' cheers.

Haha, funny timing! I was literally working on the v2.0 patch last night...which will have subs that match the English audio and a few other minor improvements.

The coverart looks familiar, I think it's the same guy who made the cover artwork for famitsu magazine

I got these vibes going when first viewing the cover

yeah, that artist took some heavy inspirations from American cartoons to develop his style

Awesome!

Would you prefer this was removed until 2.0 is released?

And Maximo, and some of the Adventure Island artwork

Nah, I don't mind at all. Just wanted to let folks know that the "full" translation is on its way. :)

Used to play this game a lot, unfortunately never got to 100% it. I got all the collectibles but perhaps I was missing something else.

Looking forward to 2.0 @Exxistance
