■１．あとがき	1. Afterword
どうも、ＺＵＮです。 　一通りの作業が終わってＣＤを焼く寸前です。この瞬間、何とも言えない 高揚感があります。 　何と言っても数ヶ月はこのゲームの為に同じような作業を繰り返して来た のですが、それもついに自分の手から離れてしまうのかと。特に内容は誰に も内緒（嫁さんにも）で作ってきたので、これから公開するとなると何故か ちょっとした寂しさがあります。	Hello, this is ZUN. It's the time just before burning the CDs after all the work. I feel an excitement that I cannot describe with words. After all, for this game I have been doing similar tasks repeatedly for a few months, and it's now leaving my hands. Because I have not told anyone about the content (not even to my wife), I feel a bit lonely when it comes to releasing it.
さて、今回の内容はどうだったでしょうか？ 　一見難しそうですが、上手くパターンを組むと残機が大量に増えるので、 そこまで難しくは無いんじゃないかな？ 　後半難しすぎる、残機なんて増えねーよ、って思っている方は、是非ボム を使ってください。惜しまずボムを。 　今回のゲームは、道中で残機を蓄え、ボスでしのぎを削る内容になってま す。アイテムの多いところでボムを使うと簡単に命のかけらが手に入ります。 　慣れれば三面で残機はMAXに出来るでしょう。 　ほら、簡単でしょう？　 　え？　ノーミスノーボムクリアしたい？　そりゃ地獄だぜ……。	Well, how was the content? While it looks difficult at first, if you chain patterns well enough, you will gain many lives, so it's not that hard right? For people who think "the second half is hard, it's too hard to gain extra lives," please use bombs. Use them generously. The game this time is about collecting lives in stages and ruthlessly battling the bosses. If you use bombs in places with lots of items, you can collect life pieces easily. Once you get used to it, it's possible to reach max lives by stage 3. Look, isn't it easy? Hmm? You want to no-miss, no-bomb clear it? That's really hellish...
もう遊んだ方は判ると思いますが、五面のボスは人の嫌がることを積極的 に行うキャラです。 　あの場面でイラついてしまってはボスの思い通りですよ？	People who have played it should understand, but the stage 5 boss is a character who actively does things that people dislike. Getting irritated in that situation is probably what the boss was hoping for.
あの攻撃は結構鬼門だと思うのでヒント。	I think that attack is quite a roadblock so I'll give a hint.
焦らず慌てず、上下左右全方向を押さずに、左右だけで避けてみましょう。 　僕はそうやって避けてます。	Do not panic or get flustered, and instead of pressing all directional keys - up, down, left, right - try dodging with only left and right movement. I dodge it like that.
さてさて、マスターアップしたらゲームに温泉、と今から胸一杯です。 　休暇を最大限楽しむ為に開発しているのかも、と思うくらいですね。	Anyways, I'm excited to jump into video games and hot springs once I submit the master. Enough so to make me think that I'm developing these games so that I can have the maximum amount of fun during my vacations.
