Credits

  • Programming and project leadership: Disnesquick
  • Translation: Satsu, Filler, Ollie, and an unidentified earlier translator
  • Editing: Satsu

Release

The completed English patch was released on September 23, 2012. The recovered project page linked to a dedicated site at eb.yuudachi.net, where the release package was formerly distributed as ebreaker-120923.zip. That domain should be treated as a historical location until a maintained or independently preserved copy is verified.

History

An earlier translator had completed roughly twenty percent of the script before Filler joined the project in November 2003. Work accelerated in May 2004, and two more translators joined that July. Filler completed a rough draft of his portion in September 2004, and the full translation was reported complete in March 2005. Editing and the difficult technical work continued for several more years before the 2012 release.

Preservation notes

No release package was recovered locally. The historical filename and URL provide useful provenance, but the patch and its readme should be located, checksum-verified, and preserved independently before this page offers a primary download. The unidentified earlier translator should remain credited as such unless the original readme supplies a name.
