Key points
- The original Japanese version requires the game running under Japanese Unicode settings. See instructions here on how to install and run AppLocale.
- The previous 2012 version by ΩTH on GamersGate lies about its SecuROM DRM, has game-breaking bugs, and low-quality localization.[1][2] This version however is no longer available.
- The 2016 re-release by Fruitbat Factory features higher resolutions visuals, native key remapping, XInput support, and a much more faithful localization.
