Digimon Brave Tamers Project
@digiswan.bsky.social
A huge digi-nerd using this account to document a passion project to localize and preserve a piece of media that was never in English: a game guide for the game Digimon Tamers: Brave Tamers! ((Do not tag main account please))
Pinned
Hello, this account is to document my progress and things I learn from a passion project revolving around Digimon Tamers: Brave Tamer for the WonderSwan system. I cannot code, nor do I know Japanese. I'm attempting to use my design experience to create an english PDF of the guidebook for the game.
Welcome back, and good luck!

After a long absence, I'm picking back up the Digimon Tamer: Brave Tamer Wonderswan translation project! Made a good amount of progress the last few days, and really hoping to get it finished this year!

Hey folks.. been a while huh? Unfortunately both the summer and winter were not good.. spent all summer dealing with issues that required many contractors for my house and a lot of time and money. And I'm immunocompromised and spent a lot of the winter sick. But I'm picking this back up very soon<3

Taking a small break, just for this week. Couldn't get myself in the mindset to work on the project so rather than forcing myself taking some self-care to play some games and relax. Back to it next weekend is the plan!

Open to suggestions on best way to host this, but just sticking it in G-Drive for now. Chapter 1 finally done! Annoyed the PDF automatically resizes to 8.5x11 when the pages aren't designed that way but ah well. Big milestone!

Last profiles and the summary page at the end, and that makes Chapter 1 finally done! After this the manual gets into being a "proper" game guide with stat breakdowns, dungeon maps, etc. It's a lot more dense after this!

Just a bonus I'd forgotten I'd made some time ago! A composite of in-game screens to show the base of operations you start the game in! The pillars of lights are shops and whatnot, the hole in the bottom near Numemon is the first dungeon! #Digimon #Wonderswan #BraveTamer

Next couple of pages done! Almost done with the first section. I think I'm going to release the PDF in sections rather than waiting until the end, given how long this project will be. Enjoy! Also Pyocomon might be cracked? LOL #Digimon #Wonderswan #BraveTamer #Localization

Not sure if anyone has even noticed, but some may notice the pages uploaded might look like the page isn't quite even, like it's tilted. This is because the physical book was printed with imperfections from the press. Many of the pages are actually, physically askew; I correct what I can as I go ^^

Managed to finish two pages this weekend, wasn't as productive as I'd hoped but that's okay! I also noticed some mistakes I made on previous pages, they've been fixed but like I said previously they're small so no reuploads until the final PDF is made at the end. #Digimon #Wonderswan #BraveTamer

Won't be making much progress this weekend, but have a long weekend coming up to get some more done! Work week has been hectic lately and taking some time to relax today/tomorrow

Thanks, and you're welcome, heh! I started this project in part trying to spread knowledge of this game and its series, and help people that want to play it! I'm overdue for a replay of the series myself lol

Two more before the weekend is over! I went back and fixed some mistakes on previous pages too but all very minor so I don't think I'm going to reupload. But the final PDF at the end of the project will def have some very minor tweaks. Enjoy! #Digimon #WonderSwan #Localization #MediaPreservation

I didn't post the original Japanese pages for these like I usually do since it's a larger batch, but I can post those too if folks are interested in seeing a direct comparison of original vs. localized.
We're cooking, chat! Cringy online verbiage aside, Pages 7-9 finished! I'm getting a couple pages done per weekend at this rate, although starting on page 11 will be a lot more information dense. But progress!

Next page is already done, but the next NEXT page is over halfway so waiting to post them in a batch together, either 2 or 3 pages together. Work week starting again today so will probably finish and post next weekend!

Hmmm I was thinking of posting Chapter 1 as a batch but looking at it with fresh eyes after a good night's sleep I think I will post in batches but break it up more, so Chapter 1 might be 2 posts? Not sure yet. #Digimon #Wonderswan #BraveTamer

Chapter 1 is officially under way! Work has been far too hectic to work on the project during the week but I'm getting some good progress in on the weekends. The sheer amount of text per page is daunting, but also part of what makes it fun lol.

Oh, I didn't know there was one! I only recently (read as: last summer) started getting into the wonderswan digimon games more seriously, I'll look into that! Thank you!
