"zxin where's the thread?"
Calm down, I'm just updating it so people know more about the update.
After 2 months in development 'N.E.T. Story' is finished!
Yes this community does finish mods sometimes :mahin:
Despite this being my first mod I'm really happy with it.
But there are download links down below
Old header:
As many (all) of you don't know I've been working on a mod! For the last... 1, 2 months? Either way it's called N.E.T. Story
It's set a prequel of the original game, not really and original idea but please hear me out it has little to nothing
to do with any of the characters in the original game (So it's not like Sue's Story or Misery Story... Or Jenka's Nightmare)
The game begins in a similar way to the original one (You receive a transmission, go get the polar star, bla bla bla :orangebell:) but as you go you'll notice more and more differences until they become quite large (It's because of the rate my skill grew, also this is my first mod... Did I mention that? No)
So hopefully by now you're thinking 'Great! Now where do I download it?', if you are then here is the bad news:
it will only be released when it's (almost) %100 finished!
(And also I wanna enter it into Blink's CSTSF 2015 Modding Competition)
However you can still look at the things below instead

EDIT:
The mod has left beta and has entered... Pre... Release?... Yeah, that works.
So the mod is finished (Save any unknown bugs) and will be released to the public soon (I just have to check something first...)
P.S. I'm so used to TSC when I went to put the closing bracket on that scentence instead I typed
the NOD command and almost typed the END one too but then I snapped out of it... Winners don't do code kids :droll:


Strange Note
While I was making this forum I made a typo that turned 'this is my first mod' into 'this is my fist mod',
I would've left it there but I'm afraid people would complain about it

Download(s)
Well, the download links have been removed because you're probably best off waiting for the remake.

Beginner's Guide
If you're stuck in the early parts of the game this guide is to help you.
It's not for the whole thing, just to help you with the start
Spoiler warning!

Mimiga Village: You no longer need a key to go to Arthur's House, so just head on in.

Arthur's House: Interact with the computer a few times to talk to the person from the first few cut-scenes. The computer will lose connection at one point after which you must go to the Shack (Right of Arthur's House) and fight Balrog. It'll essentially be the same fight with altered dialogue but Toroko doesn't get kidnapped and Misery isn't there. After the fight go back to Arthur's House.

Arthur's House Part2: Interact with the computer again until the person asks you to meet them in the 'Sand Zone'. After you've said yes go to the Sand Zone and meet them in the Sand Zone Residence.

This concludes the beginner's guide, hope it helped you get started!

I am currently re-working this mod.
As it stands, it's a mess.
If you really want to play it anyway please look at the Original Thread spoiler.

And lastly for all those who are boilingly curious as to if the mod will actually still be shit or not, here's a preview of a work in progress section of the mod:

They sure look a whole lot like those original characters though.

Change the way the characters look. ALOT. They look too much like the old ones. All they are is just a palette swap.

Can you change Curly at least? make her have a different hair style or something. Heck, if you want I'll make some sprites for you.
Edit:
Here's some I cooked up real quick:

See? she doesn't look like curly with a palette swap anymore.

XD hahaha! Yeah I see where you got that from, it's more N.E.T. as in interNET though.
The "net" part of "internet" is not an abbreviation

Past experience: I've made one okay mod and am in the process of making another, but I can help out a lot with most of the TSC and I'm a grammar nazi so there's that.
Why I want to test the mod: It looks interesting and I'm out of other mods to play. Plus I like helping people.

Oh, applications? Cool.

First name: 2DBro
Past experience: I've made two shitty mods (Robo- dare we speak it's name, and The Legend of Zelda Story) and one decent one.
Why I want to test the mod: I like finding bugs. It feels so rewarding :3. Also I can help with other stuff if needed (Sprites, level design, etc.)
