Hi, It's halkun, remember me?
I am currently under orders by my boss to start a home project so I can program better. While going though my stuff I have dicoverd that on a spending spree, I had purchased a Gameboy Adavnace dev kit...
Even cooler is that I have a 256 Meg flash cart for it too.
This is a picture of me holding said kit.
Now 256Meg is a lot for a cart. I was thinking, woudn't it be kid of cool to port FF7 to the GBA
Ok, stop laughing, hear me out.
The characters can be 3d scaled sprites, the backgrounds will be scaled down as well along with the movies. Kind of like what they did with redient evil for the GBC in Japan
http://www.zadok.uklinux.net/necropolis/regbpictures.htm(you will have a sprite for side view 1/4 view and top view) We can create the sprites by making 2d versions of the 3d monsters (screen caps) and we can animate most the characters.
Of course, it would require to re-constuct the fileds from scratch, but that shoudn't be too had as all the dramas are accessable via the debug room...
Or can someone else give me a cool FF7 idea to do.
*warning* I run linux. I made a posting about my dellemas with that.
Any input?
