Cotton: Fantastic Night Dreams English translation

コットンオリジナル · Fantastic Night Dreams: Cotton Original

An early English patch by RIP Translations for the Japan-only PlayStation release of the witch-on-a-broom shooter Cotton.

What it is

Cotton is a side-scrolling shoot 'em up in which a little witch with a big sweet tooth flies through haunted forests and castles in search of Willow candy. The PlayStation version, Cotton Original, brings the arcade game home and adds story scenes between stages, all in Japanese.

What's translated

RIP Translations' patch puts the game's text into English so the cutscenes between levels can be followed. It was released in December 2000 and its final version is 1.10; the team lists it as fully playable.

Playing it
