Final Fantasy Hacktics

Thanks! That will help me out quite a bit.

I'm already taking  the issues with duplicate maps in some games into account and taking maps from alternate versions where possible. The 2 NES Lolo games from Japan for example have mostly different room layouts.

Now this is something I've been waiting for for a long time. *cheers*

Each chapter will keep the play style of the game it's based on.

It'll include every room from every version of every game in the series I can get my hands on.
Basically each game will be a chapter.

I have had trouble getting my hands on these games:
Eggerland Episode 0: Quest of Lala - JP 1996 Windows
Eggerland for Windows 95 - JP 1996 Windows
Revival! Eggerland - JP 2000/2001 Windows

If there are any video playthroughs or anyone knows where I can get these games please feel free to PM me the info.

Yes! Still being worked on. Just tweaking it some before going on to make the maps.

They are from a JRPG for PSX that never made it out of Japan called Lunar Wing.

Heroes:

I never left. I've been lurking every couple of days. I *could* be persuaded to finish this if there's an interest in it.
There are some things I could barter for.

I have a finalized version of Lolo's sprite. I don't think I'll need to do anything more to it.

I have to speak up for the cone, too. I don't think there'll be a single more requested shape either.
I can think of some shapes, though. How about a wide 'beam' shape? Like it starts as a single square in the facing direction, then it widens into 3 and then it continues on all the way to the edge of the map.
I second the square shape, too.
Maybe a ring shape. Rings can have a 'thickness' to them. Basically like a variable bow range without a fixed origin.

My cousin happened by and had some input of her own:

Quote from: Vanya's Cousin
Random Ideas:
>Something like a variable width line of sight.  Like, if I want to fire my laser and hit everything in one direction to infinity, with a width of 5 squares.  Or maybe I want to do a wide swing of my axe and hit everyone in one direction, to a distance of 1 square, and a width of 3 squares. (Saiyuki - Journey West)
> Checkerboard pattern.  Centered on target, and then every other square radiating out from it diagonally to the end of the AoE. (Kartia)
> Reverse checkerboard pattern.  Doesn't hit the targeted square, but does hit the four squares immediately around it and all squares diagonal to those squares to the end of the AoE. (Kartia)
> Diagonal line of sight. (original)
> Random character on battlefield, with flags to determine if allies, enemies, guests, or any combo of the above are considered.

Lol. Yeap, she does. Then there's their son, Lulu.

I'm updating the back walking tiles. They looked a little awkward in motion.
I also made sure the tail is a little bit more defined and made it overlap the feet at it should.
Also, I pretty much got his movement engine down. So it should feel just like the NES games.
I can finally start on the stage objects.

I think Lala trumps him 'cause she has a bow.

There were 2 for MSX/MSX2, 2 for FDS, 1 for FC, 3 for NES, 1 for GB, and 2 for PC.

If you guys are feeling generous come on over and pitch in. Every little bit helps and the better funded my for profit games are, the faster my fan game projects will be completed, too. Thanks! <3

Yeap. Yet another project from me. Well, this one should be finished in a couple of weeks due to it's simplicity.

I present to you the complete Eggerland / Adventures of Lolo series as a single huge GameMaker project.

Quote from: Design Doc
Concept: Remake the Eggerland series as a single game where each existing game is a chapter in the saga.

Guidelines: Recreate all the features of the existing games with minimal inclusion of original content.

Chapters:
0) Eggerland Episode 0: Quest of Lala
1) Eggerland Mystery
2) Eggerland 2: Labyrinth Myth
3) Eggerland: Revival of Labyrinth
4) Eggerland: Departure to Creation
5) Adventures of Lolo
6) Adventures of Lolo II
7) Lolo's Great Adventure

Characters: Lolo, Lala, Grandpa, Lulu.

Possible Cameos: Waddle Dee, Waddle Doo, Kirby, Prince Fluff, Meta Knight.

Here are pics of the new sprite for Lolo and a screen shot of the test room:

Nice!

Sweet! That was such a huge thorn in MY side that I stopped working on my hack a couple of years ago. Now with this major stumbling block gone, I can go back and try to finish it.

So the bomb/item effect hacks just change what effect is referenced, right?

While I agree that the Dark Knight sprite based off the FF3ds model sucks as a DK,  it's actually not so bad as a Dragoon base since the Lancer sprite deviates quite a bit from what the traditional look that Kain originated.

Yeah, I mean a level editor. I guess if I wanted to give you the feel of making your own game I'd also give the user the ability to make a simple title screen, intro, ending & credits sequence.

Thinking about it, I could also put in the ability to hide all the level creation tools by letting you create a key code of your choosing that locks all those functions once you're ready to distribute your creation.

QuoteStuff about what Denam is supposed to look like.

This is the original art piece for the cover of the SFC game:


This is his sprite blown up and run through a bit of a filter:


Looks to me like they just made his coat Blue.
