Stellar Assault SS Taikenban English translation
ステラアサルトSS 体験版 · Stellar Assault SS (Demo)
An English patch for the Saturn trial disc of Stellar Assault SS, made by the team working on a full voiced localization of the space combat game.
About the patch
The team localizing Stellar Assault SS, with Shadowmask, Danthrax, Lacquerware and Cargodin among its members, patched the game's standalone demo disc as an entry in SegaXtreme's 2023 Saturn anniversary competition, as a preview of the full localization still in the works.
What's changed
The demo's splash screen was redrawn in English, and the two videos in the demo menu, a prologue and an English promo, were replaced with new clips featuring the team's English voice work and recreated music. The loud sequenced music that played over the intro video was muted so the new audio can be heard.
The in-flight dialogue isn't voiced in this demo, so the English cast can't be heard during play. The mission itself is the same as the original: one area with endlessly spawning enemy ships.
