I saw your stream the other day and I was thinking about ways to improve the music, since it's really high pitched and annoying. I assume that's because it was made to be heard through the GB speakers, so is it possible to pitch it an octave down? That way the music is basically the same, it actually sounds very similar to Link's Awakening, and it doesn't destroy your ears xD

The music in Frogs isn't that bad at all, I think. Certainly not as high as the Game Boy Mega Man II. Why would you take a perfectly good soundtrack and then make it so high-pitched it's only audible to dogs?

Please stop this blasfemy, FtFtBT's soundtrack is awesome the way it is

A full octave would sound like ass if it's even doable, transpose it down one note at most or just edit the "bell" instrument. To me it's fine as is though.

Can't wait for the next update on this project. I'm really looking forward to this being in color :3

Thank you, guys

There are a couple of streams on my Youtube channel if you want to see a bit more of the game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xc5XlO7m5eM

Always thought this looked better than the font used in the final version of the English translation.

Any chance of an optional patch after/with the release of the colour hack?

Shade Aurion · « **Reply #267 on:** May 22, 2018, 05:06:07 pm »

^I do like that^

Watched a bit of your streams and it looks amazing Toruzz. I stopped playing the original translated version about halfway through because yours looks too good. Its worth waiting for :3

I also think that one looks way better, but choosing that font is not up to me. I'm rethinking everything related to this hack, so I'm still unsure about what I'll do to maintain compatibility with the English translation.

Please Toruzz, don't let this hack to die. I saw the work in progress and its wonderfull.
The color hacks you make are something this community really needs. There are a lot of amazing old games that need more love, and this is the prime example.

Please, take your time, but continue with this hack, i know a lot of players waiting to play the game in full color glory.

Sorry if i sound a little rude, but after seeing no update since may, i get a little worried about this hack.

I hope you can have the sufficient time to work in it.

Have a nice day!

Pretty sure he gets crazy busy at times. He's said before this is his masterwork so he's making sure to take it slow and do the best job he can. Super Mario Land 2 was certainly a large side project after all. That said, I got super excited when I saw a reply to this thread. I thought there was an update XD One day <3

Thanks guys, I'm really glad to see that you are still interested in this.

What Shade Aurion said is absolutely correct. I'm currently finishing my finals and working full time, so as you may expect I don't have a lot of free time. I know it's taking me forever, but I never stopped working on this project and I'll definitely work on it until it's done.

I've already posted this on twitter, but here are some places I've already shown with updated colors:

Oooh this looks awesome man. I was nearly about to send a 'what happened to this this isn't dead right' message myself but I managed to keep myself in. Seems patience gets rewarded

OMG That looks amazing! HYPE! Take your time Toruzz. It's ready when its ready.

Dellamorte · « **Reply #275 on:** November 28, 2018, 07:13:26 am »

Never played this before but your work will make this a must play when it comes out.
It looks amazing!

Ye gods, this looks amazing? Will this release before Christmas?

Stremon · « **Reply #277 on:** November 29, 2018, 08:50:56 am »

Wow this looks amazing!
You really are doing an awesome job there

I can't wait to try it out!
But at the same time I prefer to wait until it's ready no matter what time it takes for you to finish this beauty
