NES FAQ Completion Project: Part 16

Hmm, didn't know about that. Honestly, haven't done any writing at all in ages, so the whole HTML thing is completely new to me.

Haven't written a guide in, well, years, but I got the itch, and seeing as all my progress from everything I'd previously had on the go was lost in a hard drive crash, I figured I'd work on something new. Seeing as I was enjoying playing Bloody Warriors, but the existing guide wasn't serving me well, I figured I'd take it upon myself to do an updated version using the 2011 translation patch (the existing guide predates the patch). So far it's going wonderfully! Figured I'd mention it here since it seems like y'all are starting to get the quality up to snuff on some of the existing entries now that there's finally a guide for every game. It's great to be back! :P

I'm curious to see how this is going, because I was having trouble using the only walkthrough listed when I was making maps for it, to the point of giving up on it (until I found a full LP on Youtube about the game, giving me motivation to do it again).

It's coming along well. I might've been done by now, but I had a bout of depression over the last little while (my cousin passed away after a fight with cancer), but I've recently started making good progress. I'm just about to head back through the tunnel after using the hang glider to return to the start. I'm trying to keep as close to the in-game path as possible, and am learning a bunch of things about it as I go. Your maps actually helped me figure out how to get the guy in the tunnel, which not only got one of the best characters in the game into my party, but also led to another top guy, and helped avoid some translation issues that stemmed from not doing things in the right order, making the path much clearer! So yeah, hopefully I'll have it done in another couple weeks, as I have a week off coming up so I'll have tons of time to work on it. Debating submitting it as is for an in-progress guide, but I'm so close now I feel like I should just stick it out to the end.

You know what, scratch that. I just submitted it to the queue, as I didn't realize just how close I was to the end :P

It's live :)

Thanks! I'm looking forward to trying your guide. I'm gonna use the original Japanese version though, so hopefully I don't get stuck. At least I know Japanese a little so that's good.

Well hopefully it helps. I put pictures of each town in their respective areas, and most important places, so hopefully it's not too far off.

I am going through some older text adventures that have translations by now and at the same time upgrade them to HTML.
