Hi, I'm working on a hack to link Golden Sun and Star Ocean together. Its a small hack for now but will get bigger  :Sweat: hopefully.

This hack will be about the fourth title of Star Ocean. For now its only characters, classes and Items that will be changed. Later on i will try to add monsters from the Star Ocean games and make the game harder. With the new sprite editor that is coming ... i will try to have sprites closer to those 8 characters that i chose. And as soon as i learn how to edit the story (assuming that i can) i will try to change the story to match a star ocean game.

First patch will include only character changes, and will be posted as soon as i finish editing the characters.

Here is what i have done till now  :happy:

I chose these eight characters from Star Ocean - The Last Hope, the main character Edge, his friend Reimi, Faieze, Lymle, Bacchus, Myuria (i will have to change this to Miuria duo to character restriction), Arumat and i think i will use Crowe as the final character but this might change.

And since Star Ocean does not have class system .. i will give each character one class only, depending on there weapon and usage or if they are assigned a position in the game. Also i will leave stats, class bonuses and skill power as a surprise.

I think you will notice (when patch is posted) that some skills have effects, but the original ones didn't .. i added that to give reason to use some of the skills.

And before i forget .. I want to thank Sajin for his animation list topic, it was super useful. And Atrius for the editor.

This looks like it will be pretty good. Any idea on when the first patch will be available?

Have a nice day.
Oh yeah baby, £ me harder.

Fusion is just a cheap tactic to make weak Adepts stronger.

Yoshi's Lighthouse is a hacking website in progress. Why not check it out if you like Yoshi or the Mario & Luigi games?

@Spirit of the Dawn: yes its a strange combination of games with different battle systems that's why i thought it would be interesting  :happy:

@Salanewt: Well ... can't promise it will be soon but probably first week of next month  :idea:.

+1 even tho I never played the said game before O_o. I think it'll be great tho :X! I'll test if u want lol
If one is to gain something, they must take it from someone else.
Such is the end effect of the Law of Equivilent Exchange. In the end, each breath you take is one you are taking from another person.
So, how does that make you feel when someone dies of deprivation?

If white people are white due to living in a climate with moderate sun and snow, and black people are black due to the large amounts of melanin in their skin caused by living under the taxing sun, why are asians [slanty eyed and yellow]?
Veryy intresting once I looked this up, it came up with "due to harsh conditions involving strong sunlight, strong winds [therefore, dust being kicked up]. It makes sense if you think about it, but thats the reason? Haha, trolololol.
