What about the source code for Episodes 1-3?

Don't let the Vorticons win!!

I'll never forget the day I discovered the Vorticon alphabet in episode 3. Mind blown.

I had almost deciphered the entire thing on my own, before I found that translation sign in the hidden area in ep.3.

IIRC the only one I missed was the character for 'Z', which I simply hadn't encountered on any sign so far.

Oh my... the memories.

In those times, I made me a loadable font for my Star-LC-10 9-pin dot matrix printer, and after a while could effortlessly read text printed in the SGA ;-)
