I was working on figuring out how to use the Kirby Return to Dreamland Editor - Return To Map on Rvlution.net, but they have decided to downsize their boards and closed their general game modding section. I thought I'd bring what I had over here and see if I could find more love for Kirby hacking in this community.

Here's what I've discovered so far:

A level editor for KRTDL exists, but it was written in chinese and has been translated into Japanese. The Japanese version can be found here.

I've also been working on figuring out what the program does so I tried out buttons and started making an image showing what I would call the buttons here it is:


I asked a friend who knows some Japanese to take a look at it and translate what he could and this is what he came up with:


After, doing this I decided to figure out what the different options for inserting were such as which items, enemies, and bosses where which so I created a word file list and posted it here.

I then did some more reading and saw that there is actually a wiki for the editor. Although, it is actually in Japanese, but my google chrome did a pretty good job translating it. It has more info like what options are available with different enemies and how to use the editor. The wiki can be found here.

cool, i didn't knew that there exists a level editor for my 2nd favorite Kirby game

Awesome.

There is an editor for the original on the NES, but hacking the GBA version would be better.

Though to bad its in chinese or japanase...
