PD: Aparte el Xenogears estan desarrollando unos "fanaticos" una version "director's cut" con el contenido
recortado del cd 2, desde el 2022. Por lo menos hasta el 2024 continuaban pero tienen inconvenientes de
que tienen una vida que vivir y le pueden dar poco tiempo.
Lo principal seria añadir 2 dungeons que fueron recortados del juego, están haciendo el primero y creo que
tiene el motor del propio juego para realizarlo.
Talvez llegue en un futuro a Switch 2 como indie con otro nombre
Nadie se va a dar cuenta total Squareenix lo tiene encarcelado y olvidado (salvo para vender promociones, accesorios y conciertos).

Xenogears: Disc2 project

Xenogears: Disc2 is a fan game that aim at recreating the missing disc 2 content of the original game.

This fan game is made possible thanks to a replica of the original engine we are building. Going with a custom engine not only give us total control on the game code (thus going faster), but also provide us with the necessary flexibility to enhance the experience and add new features.

We will release episodes (computer only) giving approximately 2 hours of gameplay each.The first episode is featuring Elly and Emeralda going through the Mass Driver facility.

What's the goal?
Xenogears is an awesome game probably having one of the deepest story ever written for a JRPG. Discussing the game often ends up regretting the missing disc 2 content linked to a lack of time for Squaresoft team to properly finish the game.

Our aim is to recreate this content in a custom engine basing our interpretation on the various elements giving hints at the original vision for this content (Perfect Works or data digged from the game etc...).

Replacing each chair scene as its own episode is our ultimate goal. We really want to extend the intense fun we all had as a community on our first playthrough of this gem.

Lo que van a agregar:

Camera spring or easing acceleration and decelaration has been implemented by Xoxyi. One step closer to OG engine.

Me imagino que esta parte es una broma:
"Hello everyone, quick update for you all. I know it's been a little while since we've given you an update, but progress is still steady on the Disc 2 project. While working on the combat system, we determined that it totally sucked ass and decided to replace it with the speed minigame from Tammuz, because that was way more fun. When you enter a random encounter, the enemy sprite will oppose you, and depending on where you are in the game, different referee's will appear. I look forward to seeing you all discover the secrets this new system has to offer

In addition to this, upon release, we have decided to use a subscription model. In order to play the game, it will require 1 JoeCoin per day (JoeCoin is a new crypto currency launching alongside the Disc 2 project. Please look forward to these.)

Finally, in order to address the issue of balance in the game (with Citan being too powerful, and Rico being far too weak), we've decided to replace each party member with ChuChu, as she is objectively the most balanced party member, and is also the best written character in the game. One exception to this will be one of the new party members joining the cast, Dan. Dan is a fan favourite, and we have been working hard developing his moveset. I don't want to reveal too much, but he will join shortly after the Av tournament, and introduce a forking path in the story where you can either follow Fei's journey, or Dan's quest for revenge.

Thank you all for following this project so far. Your support is a huge motivator for us, and we couldn't do this without you all."
Hasta ahi.

(sorry for the offseted screen)

Here's a small update for you all for this week. This is a shot from the Gear editor. We're working on animations and importing the existing models (plus some new ones :Emeralda:)

While this may be the Disc 2 Project, don't think we're forgetting about the rest of the game! It'd be a shame to recreate the whole engine and only use it for a few extra sections. We've started working on importing some maps from the game and NPCs.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! We wanted to share some big progress with the project today to celebrate. Here's a shot from a new area we're working on

Here would be the array of 2D coordinates we would store for this specific example, each point representing the camera position per frame

**Xeno engine V1.0**
- **Network:** Not available
- **Theater:** Test a script you modified
- **Debug:** Launch Fei in the debug room
- **New game:** launch the game as it's meant to be played from the beginning
- **Continue:** Skip introduction and start playing after Elly & Em cut scene (this will obviously be replaced by the load game menu when save is working)

```
Feature list:
- Added Collisions
- Added Jump
- Added Run
- Added ground teleporters
- Added position block in event scripts
- Global refactoring
- Global debugging
- Cleaned scenes code
```

Is this project still ongoing?

Yes. That said, the project is currently paused. We intend to continue working on it, but due to the busy lives of our team, progress has slowed. We appreciate your support, and we can't wait to get more active on this project soon.
