ROM HACK RELEASE: Soul Blazer Relocalization 1.0 A project I worked on and (mostly) off over the past 8 years, this is a hack of the Enix cult classic Soul Blazer, a semi-prequel to Illusion of Gaia & Terranigma. This fixes typos and cleans up text to make it less grody. romhack.ing/database/con...

This and a New Game Plus mode would be real cool. But this text work is awesome!

Oh and you probably are like WTF is "Found in Fanslation", so here's the page. I just like helping people share their story of what they love about games so much to put all this time in to hack & write. Hit me up anytime, I hope we can talk more! open.spotify.com/show/0kh0LL0...

I'm less interested in the technical (tho I like to cover that a little) and more the "why". And being a writer/editor as well, I think it'd be a cool conversation to learn about the choices you made and what interested in you in working on the game, and more about how you started out with it.

Thanks for doing this! I'm a huge Quintet fan and was uh "surprised" when I first tried the existing Soul Blazer "retranslation". From the readme, it does come across that you're a writer, was excited to see that. Would you like to talk about the project w/ me on my "Found in Fanslation" podcast?

Does this patch restores the sprites to their japanese counterparts? (I know there's a sprite restoration hack somewhere)

I wouldn't call this a retranslation, although there were several times where I would consult @chronomoogle.bsky.social to try and sus out a better understanding of the dialogue based on the original Soul Blader. Other times, I just rewrote things to make them sound more fluent.

Sweet! I will definitely give it a play (amd probably a run) soon! Thanks for all your hard work!

Antonio!!! @pastataco.bsky.social · 08/06/2026

Is this patch applied to an NTSC Soul Blazer or an SFC Soul Blader?

I recognized that font from Illusion of Gaia. I am absolutely checking this out.

This is great, thanks so much! Typo's always bugged me, couldn't believe I was seeing 'recieved' on my screen. Makes me wonder whether the translation was very rushed, and also whether the QA department was sleeping
