Ys: Ancient Ys Vanished Omen (Sharp X1)

The very first second version of the very first Ys game. One of five ports initially released for various Japanese computers.

Unused Tiles#

A placeholder included with the game's tile sets.

Unused Font Sets#

When Falcom designed the Music Test, it looks as though they made two font sets to work in either a 640 x 200 or 640 x 400 resolution. Though the test is used in other versions is either absent or has yet to be discovered.

Unused Text#

As this game uses the same script, pointers, and assets as the PC-88 version it was ported from, it also has the same unused dialog and item names found in it.

Item Names#

The text for the 'Status Screen' has names in it that do not appear in the game. These names are likely leftover from the development process, but since the game writes what the player has (or doesn't have) to memory on top of this, it doesn't matter. *Note: These names being present does not necessarily mean the data for these items is still present (status unknown).

Dialogue#

There is a fair amount of unused text in this game. All of these text blocks have pointers in the appropriate pointer tables, however nothing triggers them (special thanks to mizuwari & forrealsyall for help with translating some of these).

 とうぞくのいえには いぜん しんでんからもちだした
 ざいほうが ならんでいるそうよ。

    もっと かいますか？

はい

いいえ

   おだいじに····

 はっこつしたいが たいまつの ひかりに
 よって あおじろく うかびあがる。

    したいの はめていた ゆびわが
 かすかな ひかりを はなっているようだ。
 なんの ゆびわだか わからないが 
 とにかく もっていくことにしよう。

 とびらは いっぽうつうこうに なっているようだ。
 いくら おしても ひらかない。

アドルが 6さつ の ほんを かさねると
 まばゆいばかりの ひかりが あふれだし
 あたりは やわらかな やすらぎに つつまれていった。
