Translation SNES / Super Famicom

Umihara Kawase English translation

海腹川背

satsu's English translation of the cult rope-swinging platformer Umihara Kawase, with optional add-ons for an English title screen and a reworked HUD.

What's translated

satsu's patch translates the game's text into English. There is not a lot of it in a game built around its platforming, but menus and messages become readable.

Optional add-ons

  • Green Jerry made an addendum that redraws the title screen graphics in English.
  • Burning Loaf's HUD and lives patch, which includes both patches above, moves the HUD to the top of the screen with the high score above the score, and removes the lives system so that backpacks award points instead.

Playing it

Apply the patch to your own copy of the Japanese Super Famicom game, following the instructions on the romhacking.net page for this translation. The add-ons have their own pages: the title screen addendum and the HUD and lives patch.
