Project Gaiden Final Conflict is a Stand Alone, full Genesis style recreation of Shining Force Gaiden Final Conflict. This latest release contains the entire game all 22 battles.
WARNING: I cannot guarantee the game will not break randomly so please save often in the town area. I have run through the game myself 10 times without the game crashing on me so I believe it should be relatively stable. If you do find an error please send it to me through discord I am LordOddEye on the Official Shining Force Central Fanwork Discord Server or post about it here. Ideally, you can send me a screenshot and some details of what happened and hopefully I can fix it right away in a future release. Fingers crossed that there is no game breaking bugs.
If you have any improved assets for any of the characters or maps just let me know I can easily replace them at any moment. Not all assets are up the the standard I would have liked but they work as good placeholders/are good enough but can still be improved
Special Thanks to Chaoswizard98, Tyadran, Ivan Cal, Erikin84, Lynx, and alex_man for all their help
