It's done and it's a lot of fun! Relevant linkage: Aeon Genesis For those of you unaware, Esper Dream 2 is an action/rpg for the NES. Our hero is an ESP-endowed bookworm who is charged with saving the precious Rings of the Book Worlds from evil monsters! The plots (as there is one for each world, along with the overarching thread) are fairly simplistic, but it's a fairly fun game nonetheless! This translation is from Japanese into English, and features an 8x16 font hack (the original was 16x16 and, if you ask me, looked rather nasty.) |

| From what I see, it looks very well done. I may test it out later to search for bugs, though it's late, and I am too busy writing tutorials. | |||

I've been at this for over seven years; I'd better be producing quality shit by now 
It's already gone through an extensive bout of in-house testing. I've played through it fully and I've had two testers go through it too; they both found only a few issues, each of which were extremely simple fixes. I do not think you'll find any problems. |

Sweet work Gideon Zhi, the quality looks top notch as always. 
I'm gonna get down with this a bit later though. I can't wait for other projects from ya in the future.

| Well the battles are a little funky in the graphics area, though, that could have been in the original as well. The fonts and text looks splendid, though. | |||

| This is a pretty impressive game. Since it's an NES game and part RPG, you'd expect it to be laden with stupid gameplay problems that people didn't know to avoid back then. It does really quite well, though.
The footprints walking everywhere with no regard to what's actually walkable are kinda dumb. The EXP caps off pretty early in the game and since I was lost for hours in World 4 trying to find the Hyper Circuits, I was at the absolute max early in World 5. It's a bit too easy to get lost and there's too much backtracking in the later worlds. And the battle physics are kinda messed, especially in the first world. Those are all pretty bearable as far as game design flaws go. The graphics are good, it's quite long, the worlds are really varied. The battle system is real-time projectile fighting when you run into an enemy footprint icon, which is a huge step up from the random menu battles of your regular RPG. 5 different characters join you, who all have very different special abilities and fight alongside you in realtime, something I never thought I'd see on the NES. You get about 9 different weapons and they all work differently. There's an evil time-traveling rabbit. If that doesn't make it worth playing, then nothing will. The translation is pretty good too. The font was done so well it looks like it's variable-width at first glance. |

| I just finished it... Nice little game, although nothing really special.
I found a tiny typo, right at the beginning of the end, that pink girl tells you "You're brought peace back to the Book Worlds" instead of "You've...". Next game to try: Madara.  |
