Good news guys, moar progress! I just have to finish playtesting chapter 19 (which won't take long--just not feeling up to it at the moment) and I should be done up to then, meaning chapter 20 is next. Unfortunately I once again can't show much actual progress as to not spoil too much but besides the usual updates on units, inventories, and bug/glitch fixing, chapters 20 and 21 will have some all new cut-scenes expanding on the story. Soon we'll be reaching the newer chapters that haven't been publicly released (but have actually been done completely). Yes, this means that I'll be revising chapters that haven't even been released yet, haha.
Anyhow just expect me to be working hard to try and make this a decent hack since I can't afford to spoil a ton, and I'll keep the updates going just so you guys know how far the game is to completion, remembering that it's due for a release on July 7th, 2012. :O

You should save the finished unreleased stuff and create a BETA of the game and release after everyone have beated TU
ReplyDeleteLike a prototype eh? I could but it'd be incomplete as in it'd only go to like chapter 25 haha. But why not, after TU is done I can make a big funny drama about how my site got hacked and the beta got leaked or something. Just for fun XD
ReplyDeletelol you have an evil mind blazer ^^
ReplyDeleteYes keep the updates going please :) Anyway so far your progress has been really quick! But I suppose you won't always have all the time you want so it will slow down a bit.
ReplyDeleteWith progress going somewhat fast, I was expecting it to have a chance at coming out in December, but I remembered it comes out in your stated date. Oh Well X) Plus makes sense if yu have to figure out Post-Gameplay and maybe include individual enemy palettes.
ReplyDeleteI still have a lot of custom animations, items, and graphics to do, not to mention finishing chapter the revamp, finishing chapter 26, and starting chapters 27 + the 3-part final chapter which will be VERY long, and then the epilogue and final credits... I mean the final cutscenes will altogether probably be about 30 minutes just to read and that will take days to actually make. Like literally 48 hours to make the final chapters. XD
ReplyDeletetl;dr there's a lot of stuff to do, if this finishes it'll be the first custom event hack with more than 10 chapters to be completed... the first real finished "game"--not just a reskin... and the reason why it's never happened before is because of just how much work it is
Anyhow to be honest the reason why progress has been good is because I've been working my ass off and I had 4 days off due to a bomb threat at my school so I got a bunch of unexpected free time that I just couldn't let go to waste. XP
Wow, how many updates! (I hadn't visited for a month or so xD) I'm glad to see you're advancing so much ^^ And your hacking tutorial is just AMAZING O.O That's a really, really helpful and detailed document! It must have been a hell of a lot of work to do it. Thank you a lot for your work, this will surely help many people :)
ReplyDeleteI'll be looking forward to seeing more from TU!

what happens if you go past chapter 21?
ReplyDeletewhat do you mean? you can't in v4.6. there is no "what if" :P
ReplyDeleteoh and @Majarath F., thanks, good to hear. XD
ReplyDeleteok. so what happens if you just try to, will it send you back to the beginning?
ReplyDeleteYou literally can't go past there, the game resets to the title screen after chapter 21 ends.
ReplyDeleteThe above user is right. Just confirming XD
