Conker's™ Hyrulian Tail ~ Screenshots and Videos!

Super funny! Keep it up and I can't wait to play the beta!!!

And also I found out that there is even a esrb rating higher than mature. Its called Adult Only.

but i really like the mature rating on your game because it makes it feel like its a big boys game.... like its for grown ups.

and it feels cool playing a game with that kind of rating because then you are curious to whats in it.

Like, whats in this game that gives it such a rating? lets play it and find out.

You can finish this game Seph! May the force be with you!!!

where was that girl touching ...?    ...   ... ... ...  


can you maybe transmit your video about the pcm:s elsewhere? Seems like dailymotion takes ages...

Sailor Jupiter!



Also should PM the tracks that I have so far? I haven't had to time work except over the weekend so don't rush the project, don't hesitate to insert new graphics.

Thanks Erock, yes I know I can do this :-D

I won't reupload the video elsewhere, instead I'll show parts of the game once the msu-1 is fully implemented... like this:



Just read the title and enjoy the video!

There's a puzzle with the fishes but I forgot to add the chest definitions so it isn't working properly yet! All that catch me if you can fishing style for nothing :/

But the special two bosses fight is incredibly epic in the dark, all I can tell! It really goes well with the msu-1 theme I chose for this place

You can send the tracks whenever you feel like it!

Looks promising
Seeing the video I just wonder why you don't have a tail, though it's in the menu... is this a bug or something else?

Nah just using an old ''pu_msu.srm'' probably. The tail graphics and many other items are however glitched.

Okay I PMed you the songs. Be sure to check them out. I would also like to see them ingame if you don't mind. Tell me your top 5 favorites.

Watched the video.

The fish dark room seems like its a little awkward because you can't see the hole. Maybe possibly make the room flash light once in a while so that you can see the hole?

Or maybe just 1 lantern lit ( you know how you have many different levels of a lantern lit room). This way the room is still very dark but you can at least see something.

Just suggestions.

Also very nice to see those puzzles come to life

Thanks Erock for the suggestions as always. I really think the hack has changed so much in the good way since last beta thanks to all the comments and constructive critiques!

Ganon's Lair



Ganon's Lair using SePH's alternate MSU-1 Pack



Two msu-1 packs, fifty msu-1 tracks in each... I'm sure there's going to have something for everybody in there

The Garden of Eden unfinished one is surely sounding epic already :-)

Started inserting this!



Posted a video of the whole process in case someone was interested in seing how I insert my overworlds ;-)

Keep it up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All the rest of the songs and the new ones I've heard have really a good place in the hack. You're a great song composer trovsky and I already see the improvements you've made since you started this project! Some of your old songs like the old final boss battle (not in your pack) and the old ganon's lair have also a nice ring to them. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for the compliment. I've been working on this project for a while now and already I do see that I have improved greatly on composing music since I started on the project. In addition, yesterday I discovered how to rip instrument samples from Nintendo64 games and import them into SPCs! They can successfully be imported without compression but can take up half the space needed for an SPC. Yesterday I created a track with only the Great Deku Tree instrument.

SePH, I sent you a PM, check it out.

Felt a little inspired!


Will reply to your pm later in the day.

Man, that's some great puzzle design, it's much more thought as than those laughably easy puzzles in the original, keep it up.

EDIT: Replied to your PM

Thank you! It's going to be one of those extra 2nd/3rd quests puzzles.. so you won't have all the items. I know Conn is tired of adding new things in the hack because it breaks other things, thankfully there's MathOnNapkins source for my daily fun stuff!

Like this:

''Are you tired of dying?!''
''You've tried everything, talismans, cheat codes, even drugs to be immortal, but you still always died.''
''I mean ARRRRRREEEEEE UUUUUUU TTTIRED OF DDYYYING??!''
''Our labs technicians at Zeldix.Net got the cure for you!''



No more death penality and a one hit touch to get you back to square one if you don't have any more health!

Only one byte change lol!

At 0x380E7, change 12 into 11

Only problem is if you die in overworlds... go try it :-P

We love you MoN, we really do

P.S. Thanks for your pm, will reply tommorow at the job during my breaks

Edited that intro from the Anthrox Christmas Special Public Domain rom and would love it if Conn would implement it to boot before the game starts (Before the Mature 17+ screen).

I already edited the Mario sprite into Conker but his colors are funky ;-P

For the harcore players out there...



The game resets after dieing!

Same as above, at 0x380E7, change 12 into 17

I'm sure there's other values, but haven't tested them all out yet ;-)

Uh oh... such things are incredible hard to implement. Adding a static slide is no problem at all but with an automatically walking Conker...? with my current skills not possible I guess

Only possibility I see is to add this to the msu video...

Fantastic new features SePH. I thought you must have done something there to make that floor drop in a different way and of course the dieing thing. Very useful new findings, suitable for master-quest versions. This is actually I was thinking of doing a while back based on some Wario land games: where you can not die, but if you fall down or get defeated, you just need to repeat the stage. But I though it impossible to do (and now it is one byte change...)

Try 19! - teleport to Triforce Shrine. Very suitable if you want to test the ending sequence. Don't know if the Conker game actually has this shrine, since as far as I know you go straigt to slides.

Also, you can still die by pit damage. If the game actually extracts the hearts when falling down the pit, but I don't believe Conker has pit damage either.

Going to be much useful when I add Erockbrox voiceovers!

Add a spike in the intro room, items in chests to trigger the right ending, touch the spike a few times and bam, endings are triggered! Much quicker then going into Ganons room to trigger it.

Just a heads up to say that I'm right on schedule to finish my overworlds this very month with more then half of my remaining paper checklist done alteady..and best of all I'm in vacation in two weeks.

Then I'll tackle the remaining dungeons changes/2nd quest/endgame during August.

Beta fixes from last year, monologue changes, dungeon maps in september and most likely will start the next beta in october... in which month I have my final and third vacation week of the year.

If all goes well, I'll be rom hacking free early next year, hurray!

Hidden Jesus of Nazareth found!

The gods are with us!

The funny thing is I didn't added him in the hack....those graphics are that of another area and another tileset.

Found him in the Parallel Tower Ruins area and immortalized him  by adding him to the 1st overworld layer which you can turn off using an emulator ;-P
