Cool, it looks very polished. I have not tried the MSXdev version yet. Will this be an SCC cartridge (with the sound chip)?

Master (220)

No, it doesn't include SCC chip inside, but it can use a SCC chip placed at any other slot.

I prayed the godess hundreds of times, I have felt her presence and help.

Better: I prayed to the goddess hundreds of times and felt her presence and help.

Apart from the Spanglish : a very nice and complete game! I'm really curious about the new features!
