2016 Misaos (Fin)

Blank Dream is from 2015 though :/

Having played a few of this year's games recently, I must say there are some really good games that not many people have played.
The Lone Chameleon, 34 downloads, is a pretty cool puzzle game with some interesting gameplay mechanics and good level design. My personal pick for the Technical Prowess and Puzzle Design categories so far.
Three Ghostly Roses by zDS, 94 downloads, very polished and all around great game. I currently have it nominated for Best Setting and Game of the Year, among other things. (I only just started playing Soma Spirits so who knows.)

e: If anyone knows any fan games from this year other than Back to Felix and/or any good games that use rips, please suggest them. Those are the only two categories I don't have filled out yet :)


There's that TMNT fangame and my FFIV fangame if you're looking for suggestions. =)

I would also nominate Everlong. Game is fantastic, and definitely deserves a featured spot. =D

Thanks for listening and helping out! I'm greatly enjoying it so far.


Most welcome! Let me know when you beat it. I'd love to hear your thoughts about the game. =D

That's... odd. It's either a weird bug you're running into, or something is still equipped that is causing that to happen. Have you tried unequipping everything, and then re-equipping each piece and seeing which item(s) are causing the paralysis?
Yep, took everything off everyone and they're still paralyzed.

EDIT: Left the dungeon and healed up, then equipped ONLY the stuff that was available in the Troia stores. No paralysis this time. Seems even the silver armlets affect them this time. And once they're paralyzed, it sticks until you heal it, regardless of whether you took the gear off or not. But anyway, I was able to complete the dungeon just now.

Two other odd bugs I found:
When you step on the "save point" and try to use something like a tent, it doesn't register that you're on the save point. It usually takes me two tries to get it. And if you accidentally look at weapons or key items, you have to step back on the spot again to use a tent.

When you return to Baron for the first time to get the airship, there's no visible prisoners in the jail below, but you can still talk to them.


Glad to hear you figured out the paralysis thing. And the save point issue I believe is an inherent problem with the script itself, but I'm not sure. I didn't know about the still talking to invisible prisoners issue, so next update (when I do post it up) it'll be addressed. Thanks for the feedback! =)

That's what I'm referring to. I bought everything from there and equipped it, and they're still paralyzed.

I can't figure out how to get through the Lodestone Cavern. It seems the old strategy of putting on Wooden Clubs and Sage's Surplices doesn't work this time around.


The weapon and armor shops in Troia is what you'll be able to use to get through the Lodestone Cavern. I hope you're enjoying the game, and good luck! =D

YEAH it doesn't work, gj.


I don't know what you mean. I just clicked on all the downloads and they're all working fine for me. Can you elaborate?

I found two bugs that I don't think have been fixed on 3.0 but I could be wrong and my game didn't update properly.....
I notice after you beat the game, you land your airship, and when you go into the area that leads to the final in-game story dungeon, if you come back out, the airship will disappear. You have to beat the story-line last boss to have access to it again.
In the special dungeon, on floor 7, it's not letting me go back. I need to buy more tents but due to the "jumps," it's not letting me jump back so I can climb down the tower so I can buy tents.



The first bug still needs to be corrected (honestly my schedule has been very hectic lately my apologies on that), but as was stated in the message at endgame that there are places that the player won't be able to return to, such as the final dungeon (if you take the Lunar Whale and fly toward the Crystal Palace you'll see there's no cave mouth there post-game).

As for the special dungeon, that's actually not a glitch but a purposeful "no turning back" type deal. Once you get that far, you can't turn back. Hopefully you made multiple saves so you can stock up before heading further up the tower. =) Thanks for the feedback! I hope you enjoyed the game!

Cast Animations are a hot mess right now

-Swish- Damage file? I'll share anything gladly, but not quite sure what you mean.

-Sphere- Setting the animation to feet doesn't do much, fine giving up on it for the moment. I'm not particularly concerned with cast animations, but would gladly take you up on the offer if you could lend me any quality assurance. The battle system is a little wonky right now, and I suspect there are ways of improving it I'm not seeing.


I'd love to take a look at it. Battle systems can be real tricky, especially for FF fangames. PM me with a download link and I'll see what I can do to help. I'm not the greatest scripter or anything, but I did learn quite a lot from FFIVAD.

Cast Animations are a hot mess right now

Hmmm...for your first problem is the casting animation for black magic set as "feet" in the Animation editor? It sounds like for both issues that yeah, you may have to settle for a much simpler animation. If I can help at all, let me know. =)
