Tengoku Yoitoko English translation
天国よいとこ · Welcome to Heaven
MSX.Translations' English patch for Taito's MSX2 afterlife adventure, now called Welcome to Heaven, with a new font, a bigger text window and a live language switch.
What's translated
Tsunami and Max Iwamoto of MSX.Translations translated every text in the game, plus the sprites that carried Japanese words, and added a new English intro screen under the title Welcome to Heaven. The text routine was rewritten to support a lowercase variable-width font, and the message window was enlarged so the English fits.
Extras
- The game is bilingual: press HOME during play to swap between English and Japanese on the fly, or hold it at boot to start in Japanese.
- Turbo mode is switched on automatically on MSX computers that support it, and PAL machines can start the game in NTSC mode.
- A message that existed in the game but could never be triggered is back.
- The Wings item can now only be obtained once, the pincer icon no longer looks like a wrench, and a few small flaws were tidied up.
