Hello! This is my first post here. I just thought I’d share the complete FE1 hack that I’ve been working on for the last couple months. I posted about the project on Serenes Forest and RHDN and I’m getting tired of rewording the same information so I’m just gonna paste what I wrote on Serenes.
Why make a Fire Emblem hack in FEBuilderGBA when you can build it on the NES instead?
Time For Tom is apparently the world’s first complete Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragons and the Blade of Light hack! This is a 18-chapter new story featuring a great number of improvements to bring the oldest backwards FE game up-to-date. A full list of differences from the original can be found in the readme, but noteworthy improvements include:
-
Weapon Triangle
-
New weapons/items
-
Hunters and Generals can promote
-
Magical attacks use the Magic/Strength stat
-
The protagonist always has access to the convoy; storing items is free
-
Updated overworld sprites and portraits
-
Units have Resistance and Resistance growth rates
-
Stats now cap at 50, and damage caps at 99
The Akaneian archer Thomas, and his buddy Jake, find a forgotten Time Orb which they plan to use to prevent the War of Darkness and stop Hardin from receiving the Dark Orb. Unfortunately, they have no idea how to use it! So, they travel through some other games in the series on the way… How will they right the wrongs of history?
Play as some of the most popular characters in the Fire Emblem series, like Glade, Roger, Alba, Morzas, Samto, Claude, and more!
I was going to include a download link and pictures, but I don’t seem to have unlocked that ability yet. You can basically just Google “fire emblem time for tom hack” and the ROMHacking page should come right up.
