A Final Fantasy fan-game with a twist...

A seemingly normal life. An average existence. That's all Kumo Atsureki has ever strived for, as the sole guardian of his younger brother at 19. Working as a hired gun with a young man named Levi Raionomoi, his long-time best friend, they work towards a future where they can do what they like rather than working for the highest bidder.

That's about to all come crashing down when their childhood friend Miri Joumaeshin, co-leader of the rebel movement LANDSLIDE, asks them to aid in bombing a Okam Reactor as a favour, something they can't say no to.

Oh, and a casual trip to Tokyo for a...cosplay convention, of course.

Things are about to get very, very messy, as the fragile 'normal' existence becomes a thing of the past and they become the only hope to save the world.

That is, of course, if they can save themselves...

Cosplay Crisis is a complete full-length RPG (stemming upwards of 10 hours in length depending how you play). If issues DO crop up, please check this list of unfixable bugs before submitting a bug report.


-Anything with materia.
-You cannot save on the world map. This is intentional - there is a save point in the terminal on the airship bridge.
-The 'Blasting Zone' animation appears over the Battle Status. I fiddled with it far too much as it is, so I left it.
-Common event skills don't update the battle status straight away (1000 Needles and Shock). I tried to fix this, too, but couldn't fathom a way to fully refresh the battle status through the common event call...so it has been left.
-If you use a Kumo/Levi limit break while critical, the characters won't reappear immediately. I'm not sure why this is, and haven't got a clue how to fix it.

3.2 Changelog

Hi All,

Long time coming since the Anniversary release, but I burnt myself out on it, and ended up rushing out 3.0 due to an arbitrary deadline.

As per gamepage reports, 3.0 suffered from a handful of move route softlocks, which I discovered arose due to the new sprint system added with the 3.0 release. These should all be fixed with 3.2.

Due to these softlocks I doubt anyone got far enough to realise, but as it turns out the game was completely unfinishable in its released state as the Hive/Banora Ruin Facility wasn't functional. It was this section that was worked on last before releasing, and I apologise to any who did reach this point and realised they couldn't progress.

Obviously, this entire section has been revised and is completable in its entirety.

Other changes to the game include:

Replaced some battlebacks and animations (as well as fixed some of them)
Slight EXP and Materia rebalancing (this is not retroactive so if you have current saves, they will not be affected.)
Fixed Bahamut's countdown into Megaflare
Various passability issues, which of course. This is never going to be perfect. But there should be no instances of passability softlocking the game, IDEALLY. If there are any remaining please report them to me ASAP so I can update the game version.
The 'Sustain' Materia can now be obtained and bought from some Materia shops.
(Adjustments were also made to its MP costs but since it wasn't obtainable nobody is gonna know what I did anyway)
More Kupo Nuts have been added to the game, so the Kupo Nut quest should definitely be completable (as I think there are more nuts than rewards). I guess we'll see? (This is the means to obtain the only Ribbon in the game).
The Green Propagator in the Ragnarok now uses a group Slow instead of a group Sleep, hopefully preventing an unfair gameover.
Aio/Seifer's battle graphic during the second encounter with him has been changed to reflect the altered Hive's story events.
Alicia's battle graphic has been changed because she's part of the final boss roster and deserved a little more respect, especially as 3.0 puts her motives a little more front and center.
The Manor in Aetas has been revamped (the new Foyer is in screenshots). If you're saved in the save point inside the Manor, the game will automatically fix your position (it will not do this if you're entering the area for the first time). The manor as a whole should feel more like the FF7 mansion.
Enemy drops have been slightly adjusted, adding new items and increased drops.
Shiva's boss fight has been tweaked to justify her summon spell strength.
The MP for summoning Shiva has been upped from 45 to 65 MP
Characters now level cap at 35, which is more than enough to curbstomp everything in the game. Completion level for myself was around 24-26.
Some general fixes to message box position, though not all of them, so choice boxes will still occasionally clip out of the screen.
Adjusted the state rate of 'Stop' against bosses, as Seal Evil could make a majority of them a cakewalk.

Other general fixes, adjustments, etc, as one would expect.

Major note: YOUR SAVES SHOULD BE COMPATIBLE, , so while you will need to redownload the game, you can just drop your save files in and continue from there.

I don't have a specific release date. It'll be done when it's done, but right now I'm finalizing graphics and things like that- final stretch basically.
I'm asking about hentai :D

Comon FF7 was so boring that way... ;>
i get to the scene at mcdonalds and it repeats if i go back and it says something like cant find face/graphic or something like that after it finishes second time. For some reason thats the only scene i get cause i go to find levi hes not at his house and i cannot get into any of the houses.

...Did you try pressing Enter on the doorway of the blue house? It's the map straight after the maps with the high rises. It should definitely be accessible after you finish the McDonalds scenes. Try pressing enter on both sides of the door.

I'll fix that repeat issue. I forgot to consider it since the switch that blocks the entryway happens after the mission with Levi, and his house is on a much earlier map :x
there are also some areas like the plane lower lvls that you can walk across counters and also desks and furniture in both kumos apt. and levis house not major but a little annoying. IN the scene in the forest Kumo is nowhere in sight but his dialogue still runs. all i see is the girl that looks like rinoa. Also lol if you talk to shadz from the side after you "rescue him" he has no clothes on. Also who is kyer? she never talks.
Thought you said FF13 wasnt in this game. theres a lightning cosplayer in the game. In the fight with clarese she attacked and it said something like a nomethod error or something. Good game up until that error. Error happens if miri use reg attack too.
I can't switch characters to change materia.
I think i know why the error pops up. correct me if im wrong but doesnt FF7 & FF8's Battle system only allow 3 active party members and FF9 allows 4. If thats the case you need to fix it so the game recognizes which Battle system you use. I have 4 ppl in my party but im using FF7's Battle system and miri doesnt show up in my party selection screen. Now i took Kyver out and she doesnt show up in party selection but miri does. Now Kyver doesnt show up at all. But now i find the nomethod error under the materia shop list. Nothings there when you open it but if you try to select it theres an error. *sigh* Now the materia is there after i went back into the game. im guessing the materia shop nomethod is a random error. On another note: the Battle arena Event is also repeating if you go back into the room where the BA went "haywire".
Nvm me about having 4 party members. idk how i got kyer at the begining of the game when i was supposed to get her in event square. when i try to sleep at the in in the Gold Saucer the screen goes out but doesnt come back in. Idk why i slept at the inn when the save point was right there to heal me :P. Wow this list is getting long but during events i somehow get miri character whern its supposed to be me controlling kumo on ragnarok and miri is standing somewhere else. idk how your testers missed all these errors. Also the hud from the motorcycle event is still up on the screen even after i finished it and on the bridge during the motorcycle event you can go of onto the water and get stuck. Now *sigh* for some reason when i tell shadz im ready to go it kicks me off the ragnarok and i cant get back on and i guess its stuck cause i tried reloading but it never takes off. i guess im finished with this game unless i can somehow get the ragnarok to take off cause i cant get anywhere without it. if you talk to the Battle arena guy from the right he doesnt have the battle arena option and thats where also i got the nomethod error regarding materia.

wtf why is Kyer in your party- probably left in by accident. Kyer doesn't join your party until later. That's why you have the error regarding 4 members. The game should disallow 4 members, but scripts are ignorant and mean. Cosplay Crisis is a 3-member party game (like FF7).

Drew, Q & W. It was covered in the materia tutorial.

Commandezero, thanks for pointing this stuff out :p most of it seems to have been missed by my testers. >:/

BTW where was that no method error with materia? It's because the call for the shop has been written incorrectly. Most places have it fixed but I must've missed it.
Been playing the Lite version for just over an hour now and am really enjoying it, all good times and no bugs. Good work!
Kyrsty, there are some weird things going on. When I first got control of Kumo, I opened up the menu. When I closed it, Kumo said he can't leave until he gets dressed. So I left anyway, because real heroes don't need clothes. Anyway, I found myself in a seemingly endless stairwell where I found two piles of infinite Energy Drinks... I got to the top and then the stairs were broken so I had to walk all the way down. So I talked to the Squall guy and my clothes magically appeared, but then promptly disappeared later. Then I traveled west and talked to the train guy, who told me I needed $10 for tickets and then the game locked up. Not crashed, because the music still played and all the NPCs were still walking around, I just lost control of Kumo.

How'd you get out of the room without changing? There should be a loop in the event that makes you take a step back into the room. Blargh.

As for most of what you mentioned, yeah, the stairwell is long but so are most building stairwells. There are elevators on the 24th, 8th and 3rd floors.
And I'll fix the energy drinks -.-'

As for the game locking up, I'm not sure why it did that. I'll check the event and see if it's a move route problem (probably).

I was meant to take the Lite edition down, because it's still littered with loop bugs it seems.

Jaben, I'm glad you're enjoying it! :)

By walking out. Nothing really stopped me. I did trigger an event that makes me step back, but it was by opening/closing the menu. Nothing actually stopped me from walking out.
I love the ideas(tasty bites sparking the imagination..maybe even alil twisted? :>> but with bright sparks of creative "heroes" light) you have for your creations and im downloading crisis(final fantasy mixs residentevil holy f***ing A!! :>>>) now to give it a try and hopefully BloodRose and darksoul(those two games sound amazing) have downloads in the near future.

sorry to hear about the stroke of hdd badluck but i know you will overcome.
I got a problem. I don't know if anyone else got it, but when I defeat the first boss at the beginning and the black screen comes nothing else happens except only the music is playing for me :O
