I am releasing a complete re-translation mod for Turret Girls.
Why this mod exists
I created this complete re-translation because I was genuinely disappointed with how the official English localization was handled. A significant number of lines were heavily altered, often sanitizing the dialogue or rewriting the character's personality entirely.
The issue with the official localization: Upon comparing the scripts, I found that the official localization often ignores the original intent. My goal with this mod is to restore the original meaning, flavor, and nuance of the Japanese script.
Features
Comparison
Here are a few examples (out of many). You can see how the official localization often drifts away from the source material.
Compatibility & Installation
The translations are still a Work In Progress (WIP).
How to Install:
1. Download the patcher.
2. Run the executable.
3. Select your game's .exe file.
4. The patcher handles the rest.
How to check if it works? See if Polish language is available as an option instead of Korean.

Features
- English Re-Translation: A complete overhaul of the English script to be faithful to the original Japanese text.
- Polish Translation: I have added a full Polish translation. This replaces the Korean language slot in the game.
- Font Fixes: The game's default font lacked Polish character support, so the mod patches the font to display everything correctly.
- Easy Patcher: Includes a custom patcher tool that automates the installation.
