Lode Runner (Nintendo DS) English translation
ロードランナー
plasturion's English menu patch for Hudson's Japan-only DS Lode Runner, translating the interface, pop-up messages and stage editor graphics.
What's translated
The game itself needs little reading, so this is a menu patch: it translates the interface around the stages. Version 1.3 was a large step up, with about sixty graphics files edited: every pop-up window, the small item bubbles in the map editor, the notice-board text and the big captions and headers are now in English, along with buttons such as Back and Edit Data. Earlier updates covered the stage select screen, the save and load screens and their messages, and the mode buttons.
