hello, i’m devvy and i made a hack.
Fire Emblem: Eternal Winter is a gameplay-focused FE8U ROM Hack made using buildfiles.
Download Link for Eternal Winter’s current patch (v0.4)
(Remember to stay hydrated, report bugs (please), and check the in-game Guide)
Hack Features:
- A simple story set in a new continent housing twin kingdoms, Ideon
- 20 units available so far, 52 planned in total
- Many custom mugs by me
- New soundtrack
- All snow maps (because winter is epic)
- Aesthetic weather behind the GUI/unit sprites
- Classes that focus on 1 weapon
- Rebalanced skill system, with heavy emphasis on a single personal skill and movement skill
- Tons of custom skills
- Skill manuals
- Master Seals as the sole promotion item
- Hyper-mobile thief lords
- Basic QoL Stuff (HP Bars, Crit/Effectiveness Warnings, Stealable/Droppable indicators, etc.)
- Early Warp/Rescue staves (because they’re cool)
- Early Light Runes/Mines (please use them)
- Early armor Triangle Attack (it’s funny i swear)
- No ambush spawns
- Please use your Pure Waters
- Ether and coffee
- Cool guy who has a bird on his shoulder
- Snow minimap
- Funny turret unit
Mechanical Changes:
- +/-2 Mt, +/-20 Hit Weapon Triangle
- High weapon Hit
- Revamped magic tome system; Anima applies Atk buffs, Dark inflicts Atk debuffs, and Light restores HP after combat
- Revamped affinity system; each affinity boosts 2 stats each, with 4 new ones added (Sun, Moon, Earth, Heaven)
- Combat arts available through skill manuals
- Lowered unit stats overall
- Lowered EXP/W. EXP gain
- Fast support gain with low bonuses
- Nerfed stat boosters
- Nerfed Avoid (Speed + Luck)
- Low Resistance
- Blade variants for every physical weapon type (lances, axes, bows)
- Offensive staves that inflict debuffs
- Convoy Combine
- Canto+ replacing Canto, on the first lord and all mounted units
- Every playable unit has a movement skill based off movement type
- Rings that passively grant bonuses (only the first one is applied)
- Promotions with Master Seals at any level, with low promotion gains
- Houses give experience the first time you visit
- Fixed autolevels
- Player unit deaths and turret kills send the dropped items to the convoy
- Faster animations (EXP bar, map battles, transitions, etc.)
- FE5 Trading, Talk/Support don’t cost an action, etc.
Road Ahead:
- Act 2 time?
- End goal of like 18ish or so chapters
- Move talk convos to supports already
- More funny map gimmicks
- More funny skills
- Off-hand weapon system? (technically already in but uh)
- I’ll fix the writing/story one day I promise (maybe) idk
- Boat maps
- Magic and bow armors???
- Ice fishing??? (idk this was in my notes for some reason)
- Make you cry
- Gaidens
