Meremanoid English translation

メレマノイド

An AI-made English patch for the Japan-only PlayStation undersea RPG, with every line of text translated and the painted lettering redrawn.

What's translated

All of the game's text is in English: story dialogue, menus, items and their descriptions, battles, shops and inns, the save screens and the memory card title. The dialogue uses a new serif typeface drawn for the game, the painted lettering on chapter cards, town and map names, the world map and battle buttons was redrawn in English, and the attract movie has English subtitles. A few small pieces of painted art keep their Japanese on purpose, such as the katakana under the logo.

AI translation, beta

The translation was produced by CODEC BABEL's AI agents under a human project lead, without using other teams' scripts or tools, so it carries machine translation and AI labels. It is released as a beta. A separate, human-made translation of Meremanoid has been announced by another team.

Playing it

The patch is applied to your own copy of the Japanese disc, following the instructions on the patch's romhacking.net page.
