Golden Sun Flash Tech Demo

[Atrius (He/Him)]

Just because it can be done doesn't mean it should.

This project is more about creating a game based on Golden Sun aimed at a different audience than the ROM hacking community, it has little to nothing to do with actually converting ROM hacks over to a flash game.

I know this is pretty old but having found it I am immensely interested.
Any updates on how it's progressing? Any idea how soon we could be making full-on Golden Sun games from this?

I know I said I'd code mine in VB but I must admit I feel rather daunted and this would make it a lot easier.

It took a back seat to the editor when I got too busy to work on both at the same time. I should probably clarify things though...

This project was never about opening the possibility for ROM hacks to imported/created in Flash in any way.  Providing people with the means to import the original games into Flash comes with a whole lot of legal issues I don't want to deal with. That said, I do not deny the possibility that if I were to continue this project, and a good complete conversion of the game into an entirely new one was done as a ROM hack that it could potentially be imported.


It began just as an experiment to see how far I could go with using TLA's data in Flash in it's original format.  To be honest, if it continues to the point of becoming a full game I see it becoming something completely original only loosely based on Golden Sun.
