Yeah, that's right, I've got all those BASIC scripts and stuff for this emulator from back when I did that stuff. It's kind of weird how much Color A Dinosaur emulator can be backported.

Removing the hat is causing the game to view sayn as a dinosaur to color. The simple workaround is to

Might as well do this too. I think we can handle less gameplay bugs in trade for some graphical issues.

Er, it's just throwing a fit here, but it looks like that debugger did its job, whatever it did.

Right, I should have one somewhere. We can afford to lose a little progress, right? After all, this is a masterpiece of a game, no, masterpiece of all media and infinitely enjoyable. Rewatching a bit of the intro won't be so bad.

Image

Well, let's hope this works.

It's not uncommon for the masterful graphics of this game, even on low settings, to inspire people to take up learning and improving their art skills. It's such a gorgeous masterpiece.

You approach FLON and ask her if she would be willing to ride SAYN into the next battle. You mention that you think it would be a lot safer for her, and it would make her amazing in combat.

Image T'would be an honor to have such a fine lady ride me to battle.

You know, it might help if he didn't say stuff like that all the time.

Image Umm... I don't know... maybe?

She seems a bit put off by the idea. Hm... what could it be?

We can fix that though.

"How about now?" you ask, but she still seems a bit nervous regarding the idea. Hrm...

Ah, yes, that's right! You run this plan of action by CANT.

Image Although I might not understand, I trust your judgement. Let's do it then.

Image

Aaaand, there, it's done! You ask FLON if this makes the situation better.

Image It, um, helps a bit, maybe... but honestly, if you're there beside me, I think I'll be fine.

It's a reasonable request, and it's what besties are for, after all so you kinda automatically promise to do so. Oops.

Image

Around this point some guy with brown hair, a pointy sword, and weird green clothing leaves the not-ruined house. It's like a teal or something, it's a really weird color.

Image Hello there! Are you headed in the direction of the nearest town, because I am! Say, want to team up?!

Well, he's rather energetic. The others weigh in with their opinion.

Image I say, there's strength in numbers, pardner. It could be a fine idea!
Image Hmm, how odd. Whatever you decide, I trust your judgement on this, LINE.
Image I... don't know about this, LINE.

Having completed this battle, you were planning on traveling southwards immediately, which you estimate would bring you to the next nearest town regardless. You also promised FLON you'd stay near her on the way there, so you also have to figure out what you want to do with that.

Huh, I thought they introduced the player character earlier than this. Must be a weird remake decision.

Keep a safe distance from FLON, in these uncertain times you don't want to get too close unless you've got the proper protective equipment and I don't think I remember LINE grabbing a mask before we left her house.

What kind of name even is MARF anyways? There's no way this guy is for real!

Image

You rough him up a bit, and demand to know his real name.

Image Ah, jeez, fine! The name's actually SNTLGO, but I didn't think you'd take that name either!

You inform him that his name is now WILY.

Image I mean not to question you, but I say, isn't this a little excessive?
Foolycharged wrote:

You inform CANT that you were also testing to make sure WILY wasn't another rustler. A rustler would've fought back after all, and since he isn't a rustler he'll be coming with the group because he'd probably follow us anyways.

Image A fine bit of wisdom from our beautiful leader!

You think to yourself that it would be prudent to maintain a safe distance, especially if there was some sort of sickness going around. Although, you also remember that FLON usually lives alone with a bunch of magic horses.

After some singing, you come across an old building that looks fine to sleep in for the night. There's nobody inside or in the area, so it should be safe enough.

FLON still sleeps near you regardless.

You ask this strange person why it is you feel like you're stuck in some sort of bad fanfiction.

Elbert: "...perhaps it may be better to start from the beginning on this."

Elbert: "(Although, I'm not sure what "fanfiction" is, nor will this be much of an excuse...)"

Elbert: "It wants our world for some dark reason, and it wants all of us, save only a few, destroyed and left without trace."

Elbert: "Unfortunately, it moved faster than anticipated, and even aided by magic I was... almost too late to save even a single person: you."

Image

Elbert: "It seeks to rewrite them, control them the very way it controls our world now. We need to stop its spread in these other lands, gather more allies, and then perhaps we stand a chance to bring the fight back to it on our own homeland."

Image

Image

Elbert: "I can accompany you on this journey, of course, for strength in numbers may be the only way we can win. Yet, dividing our forces may be the only way to cover enough ground. Although..."

Elbert: Having names in reserve is only prudent. You'll want to be able to switch quickly in case your current name becomes compromised.

Image

Elbert: Our goal is to find any potential allies we can and save their worlds from whatever dark influence is forming. My mask should be able to sight out any anomalies, so I should be able to pick out any doppelgangers or morphs sent in search of us. I'll be right behind you- with luck we should appear in nearly the same location.

Image

As you begin to enter the portal, Elbert says one last thing before everything fades out.

Elbert: And remember, never speak your true name. Our foes may try to manipulate them out of us, and you must do everything in your power to not say it. To have your true name said by someone else will direct our enemy's forces straight to us. If your true name comes from your own lips, then you're as good as lost and the game is over.

It was the one all too familiar to you by this point.

Of course, there was no reason to take a mission without having the proper equipment with you. Your special suit can easily take and adapt salvage into usable materials, and you know for a fact there must be some around here.

Easy.

Might as well enjoy the mission some while you're here.

Image

Through setting some reactors to overdrive with enough power to keep city blocks active for days, you can practically vaporize these things at hyperspeed. Of course, these things you're destroying are mostly parasitic to the planet, so it's a good thing. Probably.

Having this momentum is really nice as long as you don't hit something completely solid-

Ugh, well at least after that incident you come across some guaranteed friendly wildlife that helps to show you how to traverse the environment you've fond yourself in.

You decide it's probably not a terrible idea to haul them back to your ship, given your reputation of triggering planetary self-destruct sequences.

At the end of the day, they are kind of adorable though, so you figure you'll take them for now and deal with any potential betrayal later.

Image

Yet, just as you escort them back through the giant tunnel you carved with your body, you see something rather unexpected.

Image

ImageMusic: The Lost TimelineImage

Two other people seem to be here, perhaps bounty hunters as well, both in rather unusual equipment. Zebes has breathable air, though it's not like that matters for you.

One's a woman in her mid 20's with a strange greenish blue hair, a prosthetic arm, and two... swords? You've never seen her before.

The other is man with red hair, two large swords, a headband, a strange mask, and blue clothing. He's eerily familiar, and you unconsciously grit your teeth. Why would he be here!?

He speaks to the woman next to him. "Seems to be a... half-anomaly? Regardless, I think she's the one we're looking for." You don't recognize the voice, though you can't even remember what his sounded like. A lot has happened since then.

He then turns to you. "Might you have a moment to chat?"

You reply without hesitation.

"Not before I get my revenge."

You raise your Arm Cannon...

Image

...Oh, huh? It's over?

Ah, fuck, right, they never finished this remake. It's rather a shame since it's quite good.

I've heard there's a more complete version out there that someone found, though I've not got my hands on it yet. I suppose that at the end of the day, this means my run here is over for now until I can acquire a copy or somebody else with it decides to step up.

Until then, beachgoers.

Author's Note:

So, realtalk, I've kinda gotta take a break on this. I don't presently have as much time to work on this as I used to given it's getting to the busier side of the year for me, (and I'm burning out a little to begin with).

It has been fun, and I do thank all of you who's stuck around for this rather nonsense mess of things I did for some reason. I'll probably get back to it myself sometime as I've planned a rather lot of what to do with it, but I really won't have the time for it come soon.

If you've got questions regarding this thing that is basically a bad fanfiction, you can feel free to ask.
