In which a creepy doomsday mural is discovered, Shingala goes berserk, and some idiot thought it'd be a good idea to invent an electric worm.
To everyone who actually cares, which is maybe 3 of you:
I finished Dark Cloud 2 this afternoon.
There are two more videos to go in the series. I'm rendering one of them right now.
In which the path to the Water Gem is fraught with frustration and peril.
In which the restoration of Heim Rada begins in earnest.
In which Max and Monica recruit several people from Palm Brinks to join them on their journey and finish building Sindain to completely restore Jurak's Origin Point.
In which the garden path is laid as Max and Monica face increasingly dangerous enemies within the Palace.
Not much to say about this one that isn't already in the video. Stay tuned for the next episode!
In which Max and Monica climb the Dream Spiral to vanquish Dark Element in the final battle for the fate of the world.
This is it.
The final battle.
The end of Dark Chronicle.
For those of you who've been with me on this journey, thank you, and I hope you've enjoyed experiencing this classic game with me.
In which our heroes--but mostly Monica--have a REALLY rough time of things in Starlight Canyon.
In which Max and Monica save the Shigura Village from Emperor Griffon's forces, Luna Lab comes up with a plan to travel to Griffon's era...and Max finally comes face to face with his mother, Elena.
It will be called Pony Atlas except it won't be because that's a stupid name. The six time periods will be Pre-Equestrian (Founders of Equestria), Pre-Classical (Pillars of Harmony), Classical (Diarchy), Industrial (A Hearth's Warming Tail), Late Celestian (G4 pre-S9E26), Post-Celestian (G4 S9E26). Except that there really needs to be a sense of decay towards the end or else the overarching themes don't really work hmm.
Nah maybe this is a dumb idea.
In which Max and Monica witness one of Sirus' memories of Alexandra.
I don't recall ever having to completely realign the garden paths twice before like this. Ah well.
Not much to say about this one. If you've got good weapons, Moon Flower Palace isn't that hard, just long. If your weapons suck and you've missed a lot of Small Chests...you're in a world of trouble.
Stay tuned for the next episode!
So I'm back from Bronycon 2017, and I made a cute little website for the programming panel that lists my pony-related things:
I wasn't very active on the writing track this year, but maybe next year!
In which we drop a few houses into the Sindain Georama, run another dungeon floor, get in a little fishing, and make a couple of upgrade parts for the Ridepod.
In which more of Sirus and Alexandra's time together is shared, and our heroes reach the final stretch.
Man, this dungeon drags on forever...
Stay tuned for the next episode!
In which Max and Monica finally come face to face with their enemy, only to discover the terrible extent of his plans. (Starring Mark Hamill as the voice of Griffon!)
In which we take a break to collect some Monster Badges, finish up the Sindain Georama, and build homes for everyone left on the train.
In which our heroes fight to save Sage Crest and the Moon Crystal, and Monica confronts the assassin who killed her father.
In which Starlight Canyon is further explored, Balance Valley is brought back into balance, some people are moved in, and some roofs are painted.
In which the spirit of an ancient queen pleads with Max and Monica to restore the garden of lost memories and learn the truth of Griffon's past.
