= 1. About =
============

This project started in 2003 when I placed a "help wanted" ad in The
Whirpool, the predecessor of romhacking.net. Matthew 'filler' La France,
author of the "Welcome to Pia Carrot!!" English translation for the PC-FX
platform, answered the ad in 2004. He promptly finished all the translation
work and sent it over to me for insertion. But then, real life led me to
keep postponing work and eventually the project went into a huge hiatus.
After all these years, it feels great to finally have it released!

===================

The graphics' compression algorithm is unusually complex and wasn't
reversed. This means the only image in the game displaying Japanese remains
untranslated. Nevertheless, the respective translation is presented here:

�� - Wins
�� - Losses


Also, the game doesn't seem to run on Windows 7.


Contact me if you have any suggestions or found any bugs.
