I changed what Linda gives Valeria at some point and forgot to update the document. As for the invisible enemy, that’s how I was able to set custom music for the chapter. Neither are bugs, though they are the results of me overlooking things.
The AI for green units with staves is really weird. Them healing full-HP units is a bug, and one I was aware of, but nothing save for removing their staves from their inventory seemed to fix it.
19x is supposed to have end via seizing the throne, not from a turn count. No idea why that’s happening. I’ll look into it.
v1.1 is now live! This update exists to fix some problems with the hack. …Or at least it was supposed to. (I did fix some things in Ch19x… but those are pretty minor compared to the current big issue that’s going on.)
I’ve received reports that Chapter 23 contains a bug of some sort that causes softlocks- specifically by making the chapter impossible to clear. I have not managed to replicate this issue myself, and have received little to no information about it from those who have encountered it. I’ve added a solution for this issue (chapter is won automatically on Turn 40, long after the chapter should have ended) to keep the rest of the hack from becoming unplayable, but this is very much a desperate temporary measure.
If you happen to encounter this issue while playing, please let me know on the Discord as soon and with as much detail as possible so I can remedy this. Thank you!
@pengie9290 Just finished this amazing hack, thanks!
This was a very well made high quality hack with great story and pretty balanced Hard difficulty for the entire game. I really enjoyed this hack.
Only thing i didnt like was the big cast, wish like 2/3 was cut from it so it felt more meaningful.
U did a great job with this, hope ull make another 1 since this was very wel done for some1 who didnt know wtf he was doing!!
I’m actually working on remaking this from scratch (and I do mean from scratch- as in building it from the ground up in Unity), and trimming the cast is definitely something I intend to do.
Out of curiosity, what characters did you end up using a lot? You’re the first person other than myself who I know has actually completed the hack, and I’ve been curious.
When i play i always try to get the best char for the weapons/class so i at least have 1 of each
Edrick/Valeria - sword
Brenda - axe
Roger - lance + fly
Armando - Tank + Beast class
Richard -bow
Elaine - anima + dark magic
James/Willow/Molly - light magic + staff heals
Carrie - lockpicker
(dancer died) -____-
Rest of cast were added to fill spots in end map
but like it said there were wayy too many chars, trimming it down to 1/3 and say make them more important would have been better for me.
i always prefer small cast party that fills that 1 role and if they die its a game over wich makes the game so much more harder and impactful.
tbh i only remembered Edrick (fav char) , Valeria and Solaris. and the main bad girl. thats it.
now if i had a small cast i would remember them all.
Great hack though u really have a knack for this! also i find it weird that not more ppl are playing this
I gotta say, I’m kinda surprised by those picks. Other than Elaine, Armando, and the lords, I didn’t use any of them in my own playthrough! (Edrick is probably my favorite of these characters too, being the most developed of them, but special mention goes to Aldritch for just being a blast to write. I never realized getting into the mind of a grumpy old man who’s fed up with everyone’s BS would be so fun!)
A large part of the reason so few people are playing it is probably the beginning. I was so proud of myself when I started making these chapters. But now that my skills and standards have both improved significantly, I’ve come to realize that those opening chapters really aren’t great, to put it mildly. The writing is barely passable, the map design is amateurish, and there’s a whole bunch of ideas I intended to explore that went nowhere.
Bug 1 -
The boss “Kite” of chapter 5 info portrait is diffrent then hes combat one.
info one is generic thug and the combat one has blue/greenish hair old dude.(Bradley)
When I beat chapter 27 by talking to the warrior, the game completely crashes when I start chapter 28 with it just making weird sounds. I’m using mgba as the emulator and it sends some message that the bios isn’t right. It was a pretty fun hack but I’ve beat 27 3 times and gotten this error each time so I have to quit since I just can’t progress.
Not really, I’m on linux and its kind of a pain to install new emulators. I’ve never had issues with any other roms, this one just seems particularly buggy.

Here’s the video of it breaking. I’ve tried it not skipping any text too.
I like the how th story’s going pretty much so no comments about that,I liked the idea of wild wyverns though they pretty much stole my xp.
also greg
My only complaint would be the difficulty is very easy,and most of rhe units in edricks story are pretty much useless
like brian being totally outclassed by oscar.
another thing is that does nicolas get a promotion?because his stats are good but wont last me forever,you also cant trade with linda?cause she has my stuff
I like the gimmicks in the maps but they tend to be rather large maybe more enemy units or buffing them up would help?
