Josh Morris of Macross Software has released a demo of his upcoming game, Final Fantasy: The Calling for the TI-85 (ZShell). This will be a fighting RPG based on the characters from Squaresofts's Final Fantasy VII. Features will include the same basic fight engine from FFVII, summons, spells, items, and more. This game is a must for anyone who has played Final Fantasy VII.

It's not fair to the ones who has TI-89 or 92 for no Final Fantasy to play

Um, there are versions of FF7 for the 89 and 92. It's in BASIC, but it's probably the best BASIC game I've ever played. If you can find a site that has it (gee, I can't seem to think of one offhand =) ), I'm sure they'll let you download it.

I don't think they're complaining, but this is a point. Before we start worring about 83,86,89,92 ports, let's get the 85 version completed. We 85ers haven't had a new game in ages. By the way, in response to above messages concerning the phoniness of Macross Software, you are full of it. I have spoken Mikel Blanchard, as well as Josh Morris, two members (and the president), so before you get this conspiracy theory in your head, do some real research.

Dude, there all ready is a FF7 game for the ti-92. You can find it on the dimension TI page.

Also, is this just a FMV production, cuz it takes up soooo much memory.

This looks great, going to have to borrow a friend's 85 :) I have an 86 here, I'd love to see this either under 10K or ported... There was a zelda game that looked cool for the 82, still in beta.... what happened to it?

You all are funny, really. All of you smell a rat or something, but this game is REALLY happening. :) And I should hope it would be awesome... I hope you all found the ASMovie fun enough, thanks to Erik Huizing for that. Visit his homepage if you like, at http://www.ucalgary.ca/~ehuizing, and please, don't mention SquareSoft suing me. That would suck. :) If you want to see my disclaimer, feel free to check it and my personal FF7:TC page out, at http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Maze/9913

BTW, I've seen the Zelda screenshot on my very own calculator, and I don't disbelieve Mikel Blanchard at all, there will be an awesome Zelda85 coming out soon... skeptics always look dumb. :)

Thank ya.

hey, try ffx4 before someone wastes their time porting this to the 83. Now the 86 on the other hand...

Heh, if you want it on the TI-83, I hope you have a lot of spare memory, because chances are that it'll eat it all up!

Dan Sandstrom

Yes!!!! Please, somebody port this to ALL TIs!!!

Re: Re: Final Fantasy: The Calling demo released

The 73 and 81?! First off, how are you gonna transfer it on there? You'd have to sit for several hours typing in the code, only to have to do it again if the calc ever crashed! Second, those calcs don't have assembly support, so it can't be ported anyway.

Have you ever heard of sarcasm, Mr. Serious? And the 73 does have a link port.

Uh, I don't think anyone in the entire world would port FF to a 73 or 81.

The TI-81 has 2,400? bytes of user memory, and no asm suport or link port. Its basic stinks AND it is verry slow.
