Notes from developer:

If you do not use HEN and the system language of the PSP is not Spanish, the program will start in English.

If you do use HEN, in order to use it in English you must delete the EBOOT from the path ms0:/PSP/GAME/MultiTasKingv301/EBOOT and rename the EBOOT_En to EBOOT (the one on the same path).
