Behold the horribleness!!!

Fire Mumblem is a Fire Emblem Blazing Sword hack made by yours truly, meant to parody the many, MANY horrible Fire Emblem hacks that swarm across the internet, haunting it's many victims with frustrating bosses holding elixir bottles, reinforcements that spawn awkwardly and unexpectedly, and horrible, HORRIBLE dialogue...

... Okay, you won't be seeing any of those in this mod, except the last one (but it's done on purpose).

Anyways, as I said before, Fire Mumblem is a hack that parodies terrible Fire Emblem hacks. Although it parodies them, it does not BECOME them.

The hack will feature:

• Completely new and custom maps
• Completely new and custom event data changes
• Some new weapons (Some old weapons may get changed)
• Some new portraits (And by some I mean very few)
• A special "Bonus Task System" which rewards specific achievements with Gold
• Completely new and custom text
• A story that makes absolutely no sense, and doesn't just "re-skin" the story of the Fire Emblem game it changes, unlike SOME mods.
• Fair and challenging difficulty that ISN'T overkill
• Dark, morose humor, satirical humor, plently of blatent, warped, twisted and maybe even shocking and ridiculous scenes.

I am going to put MAXIMUM effort into not only making this mod good to play and hilarious to watch, but an effective parody to terrible Fire Emblem hacks everywhere.

Keep note, I've played MANY terrible Fire Emblem mods and I've even MADE one before, so I KNOW what NOT to do when attempting to make a good, enjoyable mod. Additionally, I have my friend, BuringPenitentEngine of YouTube to help not only give me feedback on the hack to help make it better, but to also provide hilarious let's Play videos on each chapter I make.

Screenshots!? HERE ARE YOUR SCREENSHOTS:











Oh, but I've got MORE than just screenshots, I have VIDEOS!!!:

~Video~Lets Play Fire Mumblem Episode 1 Revised Part 1 Super-Turbo HD Remix~Video~

~Video~Lets Play Fire Mumblem Episode 1 Revised Part 2 Visiting Houses, because I'm an Achievement Whore~Video~

~Video~Lets Play Fire Mumblem Episode 1 Revised Part 3 In Soviet Russia....~Video~

Allow me to explain something else about my mod, specifically the "Bonus Task System".

The Bonus task system is a new mechanic put into my mod. It basically works like this:



At the beginning of each Episode, before it actually starts, the game asks you if you wish to view the "Bonus Task List"



Viewing the Bonus task list shows you the optional tasks you can do in each Episode.

By completing said tasks....



You earn gold!

Please note that in my mod, you can only earn money in my mod by either selling your items and weapons, or by completing these tasks, and remember, if you don't HAVE money, your weapons will rust! And You can't fight without your weapons!

~Video~MONEY IS REALLY IMPORTANT, DAMNIT!~Video~

So far, the progress on my mod is...

• Episode 1 - Completed entirely
• Episode 2 - Completed entirely
• Episode 3 - Completed entirely
• Episode 3x - Completed entirely
• Episode 4 - Completed entirely

There is also an older, now abandoned version of this mod that has Episodes 1 - 6 all completed and you can all watch all those episodes (With the exception of Episode 3) on BuringPenitentEngine's Youtube channel (by clicking here), however, that is an old version of this mod. This NEW version improves upon the old one greatly.

Questions? Comments? Compliments? Please give them. Although I am working hard on this mod all on my own (With BuringPenitentEngine being one of my only means of feedback), giving your comments helps motivate me to continue working on it. Additionally, suggestions and ideas may be put into the mod as well. I'm open for such.

And with that, this is MarkyJoe1990 signing out!

YESZ! YOU DID IT! *high fives*

Nicely done, as you know I like this hack. I would limit the possibly offensive jokes and try and make a few spiced up aspects graphic-wise (I can live with the portraits, but a new title screen and some other palette changes or something never hurt). Just some suggestions.

Until you release it, I'll wait patiently for a hack.

[bblues]

I watched the videos, and lol'd quite a bit. Looking forward to a release, if there is one.

[markyjoe1990]

[Fire Blazer]

Hahah. Alright. I don't blame you, I still don't know of a very easy way to edit palettes... it's still a bit of a pain...

Good thing with the offensive jokes, it's rare I see any funny people now adays who don't abuse that kinda stuff or internet memes XD

That aside if you need any help or anything, shout out, who knows, I may very well be able to help you. (Alternatively, maybe I can't.)

[markyjoe1990]

[GyppyGirl2021]

Haha, awesome. The guy's commentary in the vid made it so much win. XD

I feel bad for Hector though... in a sane Fire Emblem hack, he wouldn't have been forced to rape a random villager to death.

[Fire Blazer]

Hey dude, I feel the same way with my mod. If I didn't have this strong desire to finish it really soon, I wouldn't get anything done... If you have AIM I'm on quite a bit, and I like to chat.

I can edit palettes fine but it's not as simple as taking an image of a still recolored paladin and having it automatch with the paladin battle sprite color-by-color (without having to do anything of course) and then creating a fresh palette and inserting it to free to space and repointing, and I don't like spending 5 (max 10) minutes a palette because once it's done I don't feel like I spent that 10 minutes very well...

Anyway, rant aside, get AIM and we can chat and you'll be motivated. xP

[Fire Blazer]

Bump, you haven't updated here in a while to start, and second of all, I was wondering if I could post this hack on the mainsite once a patch gets out. It'd be SUUUUUPA awesome.

[Falaflame]

What happened to all the screens?

[markyjoe1990]

Sorry I haven't given a response in so long. I forgot all about this being here. I rarely frequent this forum >.<

*bookmarked*

Anyways, to answer blazer's question, yeah, you can host the patch if I ever release it. That will take a while though.

*sees my first post*

Looks like the images aren't showing... gotta fix that.

[Fire Blazer]

You can't "rarely" frequent a forum. You either frequent it or not. lol sorry, had to point out that.

Anyway that's good to know and I'm looking forward to some updates on this.

[markyjoe1990]

Ahh, well here's a nice update for ya

Episode 3 is completed. Episode 3x is on the way to completion.

[Fire Blazer]

Oooh! Nice!

And a gaiden/sidequest already, that's a new twist. =O

[markyjoe1990]

[Fire Blazer]

Nah, I think it sounds really cool and original. Chapter 5x was a semi-cool idea but it was the only gaiden chapter there. I like how it's a totally separate thing like that, I think a story should always focus on more than just the main character, or at the very least, more than the main character and his direct friends should be there.

I wanna play a custom hack so bad, this is one of the few I have to look forward to...

[Zeldaicflame]

I think this looks really awesome.
Can't wait to play it.

[markyjoe1990]

Good news everyone. Episode 3x is complete. I'm having it beta tested right now to make sure it's fully functional and bugless. Once that's done, I'll send it to BuringPenitentEngine and force ask him to play it.

Special thanks to Seph1212 for making two of the portraits used in the episode. Zepkref and Gidepark.

Gidepark


Zepkref

[seph1212]

NOTE THAT I DID NOT MAKE THE MINIS.

HAHA, Seph is credit to team.

ALRIGHT. Can't wait to see Evan screaming at you for your hack once more XD

Or laughing at another Hector joke. Or any other joke.

(Gotta say, you've got the best joke hack out there, so far)

[Felover3]

This entire mod is actually ironic, as most terrible hacks never get worked on or completed, like mine

Stop working so fast darnit

Your hack was funny from what I saw of it, looking forward to seeing what these new people will function as.
