Interesting Stuff

These images were found by u/Agent_Random/ on this Reddit thread (and ripped by u/Jibanyanlnewells)

"Possble explanation from u/kusuriurikun: As others have noted--these may (MAY) be assets from when the game was still known as Emotion Edge and was meant as a Theatrhythm-esque rhythm game (needless to say, it evolved considerably from the original concept; the storyline became the TWEWY we know now, and SQEX actually developed the rhythm game concept more with the Theatrhythm series and (more recently) KH:MoM).

Now, the real mystery is why these elements were ported into Final Remix (and presumably Solo Remix and Live Remix; FR largely reused assets from Solo Remix in particular) when almost no other elements of the initial Emotion Edge base were. (And at least in the DS version of TWEWY, there are a fair amount of leftover Emotion Edge assets; this includes concept art of Neku as well as Shiki which can be pulled using debug tools in Desmume.) The other elements (even potentially the Mingle Mode stuff) I can legit see being imports from Solo Remix and/or Live Remix assets, but this one...is a mystery. Did they just decide to convert everything over? *shrugs*

The images WOULD seem to match up with what is known about the rhythm-game elements in the Emotion Edge era of TWEWY's development (as noted from the 2018 ARTNIA promotional special and art show for TWEWY around the time Final Remix was released; this also had a lot of concept art displayed, similarly to the 2014 ARTNIA art show for TWEWY around the time of Solo Remix's release). The original pitched game mechanics (where you fought Noise with rhythm beats rather than Tin Pins!) in particular come to mind."

I posted this here in case it's taken down, and have taken the liberty of uploading all of the hyperlinks to The Wayback Machine

Opening cinematic crash

The game crashes on the opening cinematic when playing the English version on an emulator. Since this doesn't happen with the Japanese version, there must've been a change in the game's code during translation that caused this. Care to investigate? Digifiend (talk) 19:12, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
