[FE8] Fire Emblem: The Brigading Memes 1 REMIX [WIP]

[The7thFehtoon]

Heyo, It’s The7thFehtoon. And for the last 2 years, I’ve spent a good chunk of my free time creating this series of ROM hacks (None are public) known as “The Brigading Memes”, and all that work has lead to this, the series’ first public project:

DISCLAIMER: While the title may be misleading, this is not a meme hack. It’s just a light-hearted one.

Summary

Welcome to the Continent of Smasvia, a land ruled by four nations, the peaceful nation of Ligma, the dreary nation of Twitter, the isolated nation of Darude, and the studious nation of the Carey Tundra. For years the land lived in solitude, until one day an unknown species of humans appeared onto the continent, these “humans” were known as Melvin’s, Humans and Melvin’s eventually clashed and a war unseen to the lands before it had begun. The four nations fought together to defeat this new foe, and eventually succeed. This war was later named the War of Melvin’s. After the war, Smasvia returned to it’s peaceful self, but something was amiss…

You play as the current Prince of Ligma, Faukyu, as he sets out on a mission to scout out a mysterious disturbance within the nation. Little does he know what journey lies ahead of him…

Reads the disclaimer.
Sees the Among Us Battle Animation in the Screenshots.

Not an insult, just, interesting. I’m interested!

Reads the summary

(Who’s Ligma?)

[The7thFehtoon]

While the Amogus are here mainly for comedic purposes. They fill the role of an “unknown creature” in this setting thats not just some generic FE8 Monster.

[The7thFehtoon]

I won’t make the joke.

“Ligma” or it’s full name: “The Ligma League”, is one of the four nations that unite The Continent of Smasvia.

The whole joke is that alot of the locations within Ligma, are just simliar jokes, examples: Town of Sawcon, Ida Village, Sugma Crossing, etc.

At last, the meme section of the repo sees use

[The7thFehtoon]

UPDATE: I’ve added a short playable Demo of the Hack to showcase what it has to offer.

You can find it under the “Patch” tab.

EDIT: Had the wrong file on the download link, fixed now.

[The7thFehtoon]

Found Issues:

• Casual Mode is missing retreat quotes.
• The location name for “Stollower’s Passage” is incorrectly labeled “Stan’s Passage”. (FIXED)
• Bream’s mouth/eye frames are misaligned. (FIXED)
• In the Ranged event in Chapter 1, a soldier incorrectly names Bream as “Dream”. (FIXED)
• “Not L****” is missing a palette for their battle animation.
• In the Ranged event in Chapter 2, Gwara incorrectly names Sentinels as “Moderators”. (FIXED)
• In one of the Village events in Chapter 2, Wrys(?) incorrectly names Sentinels as “Moderators”. (FIXED)
• In one of the Village events in Chapter 2 both Gwara and Noilessa incorrectly name Sentinels as “Moderators”. (FIXED)

A.K.A. I forgor a few name changes from the Meme version of the Hack.

(If you find any issues, reply to this list with your issue and I’ll look into it.)

[The7thFehtoon]

UPDATE:

• Added a content warning. (Mainly for Chapter 2)

• Updated the Rom Hacks progress.

[The7thFehtoon]

UPDATE:

• Fixed multiple problems on the demo. Including issues like Chapter 3 failing to complete after completing the mission objective.

• Updated the portraits for Dermai, Bream, and Armored Noilessa.

• Split the Demo into 2 versions, Standard and Traditional.

[The7thFehtoon]

UPDATE:

• After being enlightened by several playtesters I’ve decided to remove the Demo until furthur notice.

When the playtest opens back up, I hope an actually sensible experience can be brought with it, so apologies for the terrible start!
