Basic translation for v1.13, all scenes

1. Backup Languages.csv and put this one in its place
2. Get a better font than the ones the game comes with, I used (the "Medium" weight version) but anything relatively fully featured should be fine.
3. Backup Chinese.ttf and put your new better font in its place. It seems like that file is always the one used, no matter what.
4. Try to ignore the uneditable chunks of hard coded text where enemies walk around saying "I do handed job again!" and the non-existent gameplay, and focus on the nice designs and animations instead

Might be a dumb question, but how do I change the language after doing all those steps?

The game should offer you three languages when it initially loads, like the very first frame after you run the executable, you can click English which is the third one. You might be on an earlier version that doesn't have the toggle?

IS Chinese.ttf Chinese simplified or Chinese traditional ?

Looking at the ttf metadata in the original game file Chinese.ttf, apparently it's a font called "FZHei-B01S" v6 which seems to be Chinese Simplified, this shouldn't matter though as you'll be replacing it with your own font.

The reason you're replacing it is that the game has a bug where it always opens Chinese.ttf for its font rendering no matter which language you choose on game start, and that font (the FZHei-B01S font if you don't swap it yourself) writes some common English characters a bit weirdly. From memory, some stuff like: ( " ' ~ , . ♥ ★ ♪ ) was either not rendering at all or rendering as full-width while the rest of the characters were half-width.

I would expect that once you replace the font, you might get some faulty text rendering if you choose Chinese as the language on game start, but if you can read Chinese you probably don't need the game translated to English anyway.

The game never asked what language I wanted a bug I guess ?

Language selection was added in v1.1, you can see what it looks like here in the v1.11 patch notes:

Most likely you have a version earlier than that, you should be able to see the version in the name of your .exe file
