I am working on a new mod for Shining Force, it’s currently dubbed “Shining Force Alternate”.
What I have envisioned for this is to have the game have only 11 joinable characters that will stick with you for the entirety of the game, they will join throughout the game at certain times, some where they normally have not joined.. Those 11 are made up of hand picked characters I have chosen. I’d tell you who but that would ruin the surprise
There will be some major changes to the story for some characters to fit in my new “alternate” timeline of Shining Force...a lot of the story driven dialogue is being rewritten.
For everyone else that doesn’t join, I’ll have them in the world fulfilling other roles or have some funny/serious dialogue sending them on their way. Some may even have a small story arch.

06/22/18
With the new editor features and this mod steadily growing in scale. I probably won’t be finished this month as originally anticipated. I don’t want to set a time it’ll be done as that may cause me to rush through certain things and I’d rather not do that.
But rest assured I am working more or less non-stop on it. I may start a weekly update just so you guys can get an idea on where I am at in terms of developments.
