Did you ever play the ultra rare Taito arcade game BAS that ACE Magazine reviewed in 1988? You probably have without realising it, as they were reviewing Raimais, which was no doubt installed in a recently released Brent Leisure BAS generic arcade cab The game name's on the screen lads

Kamaitachi no Yoru is simply one of the most important Japanese games in history, period. In the historical trajectory of novel games, if Otogirisou, Chunsoft's previous gane, is Pac-Land, this is Super Mario Brothers. It is that foundational in the storytelling and design paradigms it codified.

I'm trembling while writing this: Kamaitachi no yoru—not the PC remake, not the iOS port, but the actual original SFC version—has been translated at last by ButThouMust, who graciously brought us an English patch for Otogirisou in the past. This is HISTORICAL.

Also, according to the notes on the GitHub page: "No generative AI or LLMs have touched, nor will touch, any part of this translation project. All code for my custom tools, all ASM hacks, all graphics edits, and particularly the translated script, were created manually." 💖

会場用のミニ色紙には、開発当時、ドット絵を描いたベアナックル2、アクトレイザー2、ガイア幻想紀、ストーリーオブトアのキャラ達を描きました。 描いてると当時のことを思い出すのですが、30年以上前のことなのにまるでつい最近のような気すらします。
