Wizardry Scenario #1: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord (WonderSwan Color)
English Translation by Hengki Kusuma Adi
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Description:
This is the complete English (re)translation of Wizardry Scenario #1: Proving Grounds of the Mad Overlord for WonderSwan Color. The game is not just simply remake just like the previous (NES, SNES, GBC, PSX, Windows), there are tons of new features exclusively to this particular version such as showing pictures for items and events related, new exclusive version weapons and items that wasn't originally available in others, free automap feature that was may borrowed from Llylgamyn Saga compilation, the ability to download New Maze and Shopping via Wonder Gate, and finally a new unlockable Survival Mode once the game cleared, basically defeating wave of monsters without getting wiped out entirely and achieving for the high score. However the rest of other scenarios (Knight of Diamonds and Legacy of Llylgamyn) was never released on this system ever.

While the game itself still had an english option available just like in previous other ports, but it was buried in the Japanese option and had total of 4 different switches for changing different parts of the text’s languange. This hack translates the option screens (with some string limitations) as well re-translates everything that was wrong with it such as many grammar errors particularly for English mode that was still present in the original game now fixed.

Note that before playing for the first time, it’s recommended to set all switches in Option Menu to English (ENG) manually because this patch itself makes Japanese mode less playable than original or otherwise displays all Japanese only for the rest

What's Left?
- Transferring/Wonder Gate related text strings about 90% re-translated (only leaving "Is it good though the stock of the net shopping is deleted?" remainined due to technical inaccessibility for testing)
- Adding bold and lowercase fonts for quality of life improvement, however it's not currently possible yet due to technical compressions, also the game only limited with capital letters only
- Others such as modifying strings for option menu, battle related messages, etc.

Changelog:
1.0
- Initial release
