KINGDOM HEARTS TIMELINE - Episode 88: Tears

Make sure to read the pinned comment below for more info!
Some notes to read related to most of your curiosity and concerns about the 358/2 Days portion of the Timeline. Please read before expressing your concerns!
Please, bear in mind — THIS IS NOT A Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days remake! It will never, ever be, nor it is in our interest working on it. What we have been doing is just focusing on SIMULATING some of the original missions using KH2FM codes, adding in dialogues and cutscenes from both the original Nintendo DS and the HD 1.5 movie versions. You can’t just download it and play it and do these “missions” like in these videos. It’s not like you can download an actual game, boot it and see yourself playing as Xion and encountering random Heartless in every world like shown here. The Commands Menu on the bottom left corner is actually a picture, which is faithfully and constantly manually edited through video editing when attacking/using magic/using items/healing party members. In fact, I play with an invisible menu.
The Information bar appearing at the top of the screen is just a picture as well. The Heartless spawnings have been handled each time exclusively for recording purposes, it’s not like they would appear on regular basis as shown in these videos.
In other words, this is not a playable game, nor will it have any sort of remade cutscenes, rather a temporary “simulation” of some of 358/2 Days missions. Our goal is creating an exclusive, new perspective of 358/2 Days gameplay, mixing it with the original cutscenes and finally create the definitive experience of Roxas’s story, a character who deserves all of our tireless efforts and dedication.
And I’m proud to be a main part of this, being able to provide you such a unique experience. Just as I am extremely honored for having met and for working with such amazing people. Nothing of this would have been possible without their massive experience, impressive capabilities and, more than anything, patience!
