Hey folks.. Thanks for taking the time to read my post. I'm currently writing a Final Fantasy I PC Remake.. I'm using all of the original graphics from the NES for starters, and I'm sticking to the original layout of the game, so this is for PURISTS ONLY!!
While I AM using the RPG Maker 2003 to produce it, I have found many, many ways to overcome its limitations--so don't worry--this will be quite accurate!
I expect the project to take a little while, as I'm paying close attention to detail (ie. exact monster formations, exact positions and probability of each encounter, etc..)
So far, I have the following completed:
*Character selection (at beginning of game)
*All 128 monsters (actually 124, but fiends go twice)
*Additional monster added: "Bikke" (other sidequests to come later)
*All monster layouts finished (539 possible combinations)
*World Map--believe me, this took a while!
*Magic system (spells are purchased, organized by level, etc...)
*Canoe works perfectly, airship works perfectly, and ship only docks at ports (or rivers w/ canoe)!
*4 orbs light correctly
*Menu music works
*Scrolling opening titles (new...)
I am including a few screenshots of the project as it stands now ...
I will keep you posted as I near completion of this game.. I'll need people to test it, so I hope I can find some willing participants here! Lemme know what you think
