EVIDENCE

MISSION ANALYSIS
This game is based on the anime Saint Saiya, which I know little about.

But anyways, Seiya is on a journey to collect the pieces of the Golden Armor. Through his journey, he will go through both platform
action sequences, as well as turn-based battles against major enemies. It is kinda confusing, but you collect Cosmo points, which you can
spend to build up attack and defence power for each turn, then release to attack. Collect Experience Points to spend to build up your
attributes.

This was the first translation I ever released, and chosen largely because it was one of the few games to see French, but not English release.
And French is what I had been studying in school at the time.

This mission was undertaken by:
KingMike - hacking, translation
Metalhawk - translation
Praveus - title screen
Note that this translation is not affiliated with the one released by the Rosetta Group in 2004.
