Shiren the Wanderer: The Mystery Dungeon of Serpentcoil Island

Prerelease Info Notes

Unused Graphics#

A tile with some Japanese text on it

Debug Menu Leftovers#

Also found in the files are graphics related to a Debug Menu.

Unused Portraits#

Shiren has a happy and a pain portrait, however you can only see his neutral portrait on the top menu screen when you are selecting your file.

Shiren does not talk in the cutscenes, so these portraits never get displayed anywhere.

"Serpentcoil Island" Story RNG Skip#

If the player had a good RNG for the items that were needed to beat the final boss at the beginning of the game without fail, the player can beat the "Serpentcoil Island" story arc in only 5 minutes or less. (As shown on the completion screen in the video)

Additionally with the skip, some parts of the beginning of the game are skipped over, making some of the cutscenes inaccessible.

Normally, you have to fail this boss fight for the main story to progress.

It's possible to get the required items for the skip, however the player would need to be very lucky.

Additionally, doing this skip will show unique dialogue for Kantenbo that is never normally shown without the skip, he would get upset at Shiren for ransacking the island, instead of getting upset for challenging Jakaku.
