Game's awesome, been waiting for this for a long while now lol.
But, I do have a question about the BoP woods:
After I traveled around through the left and right places of the BoP woods and encountered all the scenes, I go to the South Part after the Elder Bunny gives me the key and the money. I turn on all the switches and basically nothing happens...

I have no idea what to do. Is there like, a hidden item or maybe the buttons are have to be in a certain order?

Look at the coloured flowers. Going from left to right, hit the switches in that order. Hope that helps :)

I made a few more attempts at getting version 0.3, but none of them worked. To be more specific, they "finished" at less than 100%, for some reason. However, I decided not to worry too much, and play version 0.2 anyway. Before I get to my game-notes, may I suggest that you make an upload of the game to RMN's server? That shouldn't cause too many issues. Well, one can hope!

Anyway, forgive the stream-of-consciousness nature, here.

Pre-game observations:
As is my want, I took a peek at the Music directory. Mostly, what I found were songs from the Xenosaga series and Crisis Core - Final Fantasy VII, though there were various other musics from commercially-made games in here. I have absolutely no problems with this. Of course, I pull music from commercially-made games myself, so perhaps my opinion on this tactic is a tad skewed.


Running commentary:
Darigaaz, the Crisis Core music with this sequence where the party members are being dropped into the combat zone. I can almost glimpse these operatives descending into the combat zone in the same style that Zack does in the opening FMV of Crisis Core! Forgive me. I started a new game plus of Crisis Core yesterday, and, well...

Is the "Revival Stone III" item supposed to say "Revives an ally with 50% of HP remaining"? I'm thinking no, as that's what the "Revival Stone II" item says.

There's some ?'s surrounded by boxes in this game for the enemies and player characters in battle. For example, instead of saying "Landrid attacks!", it basically says "Landrid ????!". Enemies are listed as "Virion Knight?" rather than "Virion KnightA", or whatever. I'm going to take a huge guess, and say that this is one of the things that was fixed with the re-release?

Is it just me, or is it really weird that the restoration animation/event occurs after the game loads. I mean, I know how this can happen, code-wise, but, seeing it play out just feels off to me.

So, we're at the boss fight. The sequence leading to it had "Survive" running as it's music. Which is fine by me. After all, I used it in Uchioniko that was the peice Xenosaga Episode III uses for ES battles. During the actual fight, what we get is, well, I don't recall the name of this peice myself, but it's used in Xenosaga Episode III in various character-based boss battles.

So, Drayer HQ wasn't actually all that far from the combat zone? Makes the opening sequence make somewhat less sense (An air-drop when there's enemies, literally, right outside your doorstep?), but whatever.

This is probably just me talking, but there doesn't seem much purpose to having "Fifth Jerusalem" for the one area outside of HQ, then switching to "The Galaxy Public Corporation" for the rest of HQ.

I bothered to go the however-may-screens-it-was to get to the next dungeon, but, when I finally arrived, I saved, and closed my gaming session. I'm not sure if I'm going to continue my play of this demo. However, I can see me picking this up again with a later demo, or when it's complete.


Other observations:
I don't know about version 0.3, but the characters I saw in version 0.2 fell a little flat. Of course, having the exact same after-combat quotes does not help their case for having distinct personalities.

I think I saw a few text cut-offs, but I wasn't really making note of anything specific. Sorry!

With all the help you're providing, I hate to be a turd in the punch bowl. But it seems I needed to upgrade my browser, which I did from IE7 to IE8 but it STILL says my browser is an outdated old hag.

Firefox just auto-updated on me, and I'm getting this "Your web browser is too old for the training" error message. However, the message also says that the site works wonderfully with Google Chrome. Which I seem to have on my computer. As a test, I ran it through that browser, and it appears to be downloading okay.
