Okay, last post about it. Finishing this game, seeing all the charming dialogue, the weird places this game goes, and the best ending, I'm floored by how cool this game is. Everybody needs to experience this incredible game! (Thanks to @laytonloztew.bsky.social for the guided tour via RA set)
Wonder Trek got an English translation last month, and a new RA set for it convinced me to try it, and when I tell you that you owe it to yourself to play this game, I mean it. It's an action-adventure game with a charming story and unique gameplay. Run, do not walk. romhackplaza.org/translations...

Ok. Everyone convinced me to go straight into another @chaputranslations.bsky.social translation next week with Wonder Trek. Schedule is probably looking like Wonder Trek (PS1), Pocket Bomberman (GBC), & Testament (PC-88) with my 3rd strike prelims on Saturday. I'll make the schedule tomorrow proper

Uhh I think this post cursed me to stream to the end of Prisoner which took like 11 hours. That last stretch of the game is long and difficult but we did it. I think I will split the vod into 3 for YT. Thanks for the translation. I need something a little more laid back now. Game is good though.
