So then, some news regarding the Devious Four Chronicles (and its sub series).
Number one issue I'd like to address is that yes, the series is still being worked on. Some have expressed concern via PM or otherwise that the series has been stalled or cancelled. I would like to inform those who are interested in TD4C that the series is indeed still being worked on. However, our initial plans for the series will be undergoing major changes.
Anybody who is familiar with the road map of TD4C will recognize that there is a
Hunter's Revenge 4 planned, as well as a
Black Hole and the
Four Orbs finale. However, with the direction that
TD4C#8: Revelations is going, which was originally supposed to be the
Hunter's Revenge 3 remake, it is most likely apparent that
Revelations will indeed be the finale to
The Devious Four Chronicles and will most likely be the end of the series. It has always been in the D4 TeamWorks' best interest to bring a story that is different from other Super Mario World hacks out there. It may be tacky at times, yes, and it may seem a bit out there, yes. None-the-less, a different experience from all the other hacks out there.
Now, some other announcements. Work has slowed because of all the recent changes to standards, notably with the sprite_tool changes and its subsidiaries. Meanwhile, a lot of our focus has been shifted towards our Parody Project, which is
Hunter and Scorpion's Bet series, which is a very light hearted series of two hacks featuring alternate persona's of
TD4C's recognizable villains
Hunter and
Scorpion as the player characters. Check out some of the screen shots below.
Otherwise, updates will soon be rolling out for the TD4C hacks currently listed on the site, most notably
TD4C#4: Hunter's Revenge ReVised and
TD4C#6: The Fourth Sector. These two updates aim to fix a multitude of issues that are in the two hacks, making them more stable and hopefully making them more enjoyable experiences with some difficulty nerfs. When the updates roll out, please remember to check the readmes for all changes.
