Difference between revisions of "Final Fantasy Adventure"

The game that would become ''Final Fantasy Adventure'' began in 1987, with Squaresoft tradmakring the name ''Seiken Densetsu: The Emergence of Excalibur'' on the intent of making it a Famicom Disc System title that utilized five separate floppies. This project would be shelved due to the increasing financial difficulties the company would not escape until the release of the first Final Fantasy later that year, and pre-orders were refunded with apology messages.

Following the success of [[Akitoshi Kawazu]]'s experimental gameboy RPG in 1989, Squaresoft employee and Final Fantasy sprite artist [[Koichi Ishii]] pitched an idea for an ambitious action RPG for the handheld console. The proposal was approved, and development under the project name of ''Gemma Knights'' began. Seeing an opportunity to put the previously shelved trademark to use, the game was titled ''Seiken Densetsu: Final Fantasy Gaiden''. Koichi Ishii provided the general plot for the game and designed all the characters and monsters himself, with [[Yoshinoir Kitase]] assisting in script writing and [[Goro Ohashi]] programming the game's systems.
