Thank you! Happy to see you finished and enjoyed the game. And yes, it was a nightmare 😬 but was fun working with the team to put it together

So overall, Sakura Wars 2 is a quintessential example of a perfect sequel. It's just genuinely such an improvement over the first game in every way and it's a near perfect game in my book honestly. VERY VERY great stuff and I highly recommend both this and the first game!

Also shoutouts to the translation team! They did a DAMN good job on this game that I imagine was a fucking nightmare to program and get functioning in a modded state lmao. There's so much love poured into the translation, dare I say as much as was put into the game by the devs.

This is fascinating. Thank you for sharing!

Saroo has issues playing the game in general. Even the Japanese version doesn’t work properly with saroo.

I don’t have a steam deck, but assuming that can play retro arch, you should be able to play this using the beetle core.

Should also note that this patch was released for two languages: English and Portuguese 😁

I served as the lead editor on SW2 and it was the most challenging project I've ever been a part of. Translating something of this scale was only possible thanks to all the time and talent each person poured into this patch. So make sure to thank everyone for their awesome work!

Finally, thank you all for patiently waiting and Sega for creating such an amazing game. What are you still doing reading this read? Go play the game!

x.com/TheOpponent provided the much improved font sheet that was used in this patch compared to SW1. Also thank you for tackling image edits! Thank you x.com/SegaSaturnDave for helping out with Tycoon minigame!

Thank you @cj-iwakura.bsky.social for testing out this whole game! Thanks to him, you all can be assured that the game is completely playable on Saturn using the Satiator! @burntends.bsky.social for giving me the push I needed to get this project going in its early days and helping out with edits!
