Translation PC Engine CD

Faussete Amour English translation

フォーセット・アムール · Faussete Amour

TruMisery's AI-assisted English subtitle patch for Faussete Amour adds timed captions to the voiced story scenes of this Japan-only PC Engine CD action game.

What's translated

Since the story in Faussete Amour is spoken rather than written, TruMisery's patch adds timed English subtitles over the original Japanese voices: the opening narration, the story cinemas, the boss conversations, the ending and the spoken responses on the Continue screen. The voices, music and sound effects are untouched. The captions use a thin outlined font with no backing bar and move to the top of the screen in busy scenes so the artwork stays visible. The labels of the game's hidden debug menu are in English too, while the Continue screen artwork was left in Japanese on purpose.

Extras

The release also adds an optional code for infinite lives and damage protection, entered from the pause screen at the start of each stage.

How it was made

The translation was made by TruMisery with AI assistance, then reviewed in context and playtested to fix caption glitches.

Playing it

The patch is applied to one track of your own copy of the Japanese disc, following the instructions on the GitHub page.
