Preview of Dev Build

• Chest seeding has been implemented. Unlike in Whirlwind, here the order of opening chests matters.

• The first five letters of the name of Terra/Tina will be your seed. Random (auto) seeding is not yet supported.

• Designed based on the open-world mode of the cousin hack, FFV: Whirlwind.

• Starting items have been added. They include three Moogle Charms, three Sprint Shoes, twelve Experience Eggs, and an infinite Warp Stone.

• You can now save in towns and dungeons.

• You can now access your airship early.

• You can now warp between the World of Balance and the World of Ruin. To do so, when in an airship, press the X button while having the Select button held.

• Gil and ability points gained have been boosted to 32x. Same goes for experience gained with Experience Egg equipped.

• A secret warp has to the final boss has been added, but the warp currently has an equipment requirement. This warp is subject to change.

• When wearing Moogle Charm, you can now hold the A button to get random encounters. Works both on overworlds and in dungeons.

• Pure Chaos mode added and ON by default. To turn off, change Sound from Chaos to Off in the Config menu.

• Pure Chaos mode includes enemy rando and Bonanza mode. Both support seeding.

• Bonanza mode gives you up to six random bonus drops per battle.

• Chaos mode will no longer take effect in the final dungeon. This is to preserve endgame farming. This behavior is the same as in Whirlwind.

• You now summon your airship to your current location if you aren’t already standing at the airship’s location.

• You now see your Magic Points after battle even before you get your first Espers.

• Walking speed has been doubled. This matches the GBA version.

• Sprinting speed has been doubled. This matches the GBA version. However, visual artifacts may be present in the sprinting animations in certain directions, such as right and down. Namely, the player character may appear to be gliding atop the ground.

• Protects against wrong warping to WoB’s or WoR’s version, when entering or exiting houses.

• Reimplements early access to Floating Continent. Namely, WoB Sealed Gate can now be played.

• You can now dismiss a party member by holding SELECT when changing their row in the main menu. Reenter the main menu to see the result.

• Dev builds available via Discord.
