[FE8] Harold's BIG score [10 Chapters] [COMPLETE]

Wait a second, didn’t you release your last game less than two weeks ago? Indeed! How did you make 10 chapters in less than two weeks? By making them MINIMAL size. Dandori Moon had two giant maps, this has 10 not so giant maps. Lol.

Anyhow, about this game:
Harold is a gay virgin troudabour who after one day getting in some trouble due to wanting to “score” (get laid) goes on a journey to “score”. Join him on his adventures as he meets new people in hopes of finally meeting someone another gay virgin man just as much wanting to “score” as him.

Contents:
-10 Maps with the minimal size
-Three split promotions for every class capable of promoting via a Seal
-21 Playable characters with a lot of them leaving your party, ensuring variety. (Also because you are on a journey to “score”, not save the world.)
-New classes
-Buffed Snipers
-Some new weapons
-Some new classes

Inspiration and cut ideas (Spoilers)

The main inspiration for this game is Beavis and Butthead, a lot of episodes have Beavis and Butthead do stupid plans, including stupid plans to score. Although Beavis and Butthead are much dumber and also meaner than Harold, so it isn’t exactly the same. But that is definitely the reason I use to word “score” in this game.

A few scenes I had in mind but didn’t end up doing:

  • Tynan (the boxer) should have been more prominently admired by Harold (finding him just cool). Which would have lead to him gaining new motivation to no longer be the type of boxer to loose on purpose as an income but to seriously try. And his finals words are something along the lines of: “If I ever score the victory at another championship and I get to hold a victory speech, I’ll mention you, kiddo.”
  • Harrie (the female Harold) asks Harold how Camilla, the legendary first princess of Nohr, is friends with Harold which leads to him reciting from when the first met. He didn’t see Camilla as a sexy girl nor an important political figure. They became regular friends, something Camilla doesn’t have that much.

Dorothy and Oz are loosely based on the wizard of Oz, at least in terms of Dorothy being an isekai protagonist (she has a rapier tome for a reason) with her learning a lesson about accepting death. (Her join map is her giving closure to lingering souls and her “retainer” also finds closure after helping her.)

Harrie’s friend trio (Gus, Brooke and Leyon) are based on the girl trio from Konosuba. Gus is a “one spell that is powerful but leaves him close to death” like Megumin. Brooke is a powerful user of magic who due to already being max level will never grow like Aqua. And Leyon is a masochist with terrible hit rate like Darkness. Despite Darkness being a sword user due to the low accuracy of axes I think they fit it better.
I always wanted to do something with the Konosuba cast, but never got around to it, this is kinda like closure on that. Even if they don’t have a giant role.

dude your work rate is crazy!
One more to add to the list of hack to try

And the cool part is, if you add up all of the chapters in all of my hacks so far: you get 40 chapters.
Now my “Elysium Elibe” series is like as big as a proper fire emblem game, it is just segmented, instead painting a portrait of this world by telling stories from many perspectives.
But don’t expect me to keep this up, as I have things ahead that prevent me from working as much as I do.
Still, I am happy with how it turned out and I hope it expands the world of “Elysium Elibe” by being more comedy focused and being from the perspective of literally just some guy. And of course it being 10 really short maps giving it a different pace than my other things, especially as Mice Miracle and Dandori Moon have maps on the bigger end.

Hello and welcome to the “Dev Commentary” or something. I will add this to the main post, I think. Basically this will be some fancy notes such as “What inspired this?” or “Cut ideas!”
I may do this for other projects of mine as well but hey, here goes nothing. Also spoilers since I expect you to have beaten the game.

Inspiration and cut ideas (Spoilers)

The main inspiration for this game is Beavis and Butthead, a lot of episodes have Beavis and Butthead do stupid plans, including stupid plans to score. Although Beavis and Butthead are much dumber and also meaner than Harold, so it isn’t exactly the same. But that is definitely the reason I use to word “score” in this game.

Which would have lead to him gaining new motivation to no longer be the type of boxer to loose on purpose as an income but to seriously try. And his finals words are something along the lines of: “If I ever score the victory at another championship and I get to hold a victory speech, I’ll mention you, kiddo.”
  • Harrie (the female Harold) asks Harold how Camilla, the legendary first princess of Nohr, is friends with Harold which leads to him reciting from when the first met.
