Announcement: I am currently working on an English localization of "Puyo Puyo DA!" -
yet another NAOMI port and the last of the DC's Puyo Puyo games, that remained untranslated until now.

About 90% of the work is already done by now. I'm hoping to get everything done within the next week or so.

As a harbinger, here is the front artwork, which also needed an overhaul:

Nice!

I had this on my "maybe to-do" queue. Being that it's basically just TONS of graphic work, I'm happy to knock it off the list! 😂

Looking forward to your patch.

It's a regular japanese Dreamcast game, that was released simultaneously on Dreamcast and in the Arcades (NAOMI) in 1999.

Almost there...
I've finished editing all the textures that needed treatment. Stylistically this game is all over the place. Sometimes it hasn't been that easy to stick to these quirky art decisions ;)

Anyway, time to wrap everything up and test it on real hardware.
Expect the patch tomorrow!
