I teamed up with translator Tetralesca to patch the original Kingdom Hearts coded demo episode into English! This 15-minute adventure has a unique story that wasn't carried over into Re:coded. Play it at keitaiarchive.org. I'm working on a full breakdown and behind-the-scenes video, so stay tuned!

Keitai Archive has recently recovered a unique mobile release of #Tetris called TETRIS GREEN. The game includes a "Square" mode where you earn extra points by creating perfect 4x4 squares of Tetronimos on the board. Is this a cool feature or just a gimmick? youtu.be/lNt3UaecSaU

If you are at all interested in video game preservation, particularly for MMOs and online games, this is a must-watch. Yuvi's mission to rebuild Tales of Eternia Online is one of the coolest ongoing preservation projects out there – it's still in its infancy, but the tools are already mind blowing.

Part 3 This one is all about the tools and issues. I'll have to rebuild the game! But these tools make the journey much easier. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNXo...

Pardon the Twitter link, but footage of V CAST Wonderland has been recovered: x.com/Caith_Sith/s... Quick rundown: - I have no doubt that this is 100% real - The game files are still lost media - The poster says he doesn't plan on releasing the full footage until the 25th anniversary

Keitai World Launcher has been updated to Ver 1.0! ✅ Brand new UI + streamlined menus ✅ Keitai Wiki integration to the game list, allowing you learn about each app before playing it ✅ New machi-chara desktop app! ✅ Installed app indicators are now more accessible for colorblind users

D23 had very interesting KH music picks: - "Hand in Hand -Attraction Flow-" for opening countdown - "Wake Up, World!" for the introduction of Renée Johnson, HJO, and David Gallagher - "Dearly Beloved -Unchained χ Version- " for Miyu Irino's interview - "Go for It! -Into the Clouds-" for the closing

(...and more of that new trailer track by Shotaro Shima.) Strange that KHχ music is used for introducing both Sora VAs, considering that's the game Sora has the least connection to... But there's clearly an intent to use music from the most recent album, at least

The first KH4 trailer music (Reality in the Dark) was arranged by Natsumi Kameoka. The KHML trailer (DB) was arranged by Tomomichi Takeoka. Speculated that the new KH4 trailer music is by Shotaro Shima. Interesting new direction! It's also the first time KH has ever had unique music for trailers

Endlessly amusing that a game with the subtitle "Lost Episode" was lost media for a couple decades. Massive congrats to Yuvi and the rest of the team for preserving and patching this piece of FF7 history!

Another step closer to preserving Before Crisis! Last year, Ch.1 was found in full, and it's slowly getting more complete. I'm always so impressed by the team at the Keitai World server working to get BC operational – imo, this game is emblematic of the whole keitai preservation effort. Great work!

A new partial copy of Before Crisis FFVII was preserved by NaoyaShinota! This copy contains Turk data for Cissnei, as well as a battle map and sprites for Weapon D Mode (postgame superboss mode). Now we preserved four Turks: Rod, Gun (Male), Nunchuck, and Shuriken (aka Cissnei).

"Why are all these MOBILE GAME characters in my KH4 trailer?!?" Maybe it's because the mobile games are the only part of this franchise keeping character design alive? In the past 15 years, how many actually new characters have we had outside of the mobile games? Basically none!

When digging through archives for KH Customize, I found a Japanese shitpost from 20 years ago that translated to something like > I'm so KH-brained that when I heard "triple axel" today I thought "Axel ×3" 😭 I just discovered that the post got deleted, so I now entrust this sacred wisdom to you

There's a new event running on KH Heed to the Pulse! It's called "Rogues' Gallery", and it will test your knowledge of Kingdom Hearts boss music. Have fun! aid1043.github.io/KH-Heardle/ (If only there were a video about boss themes you could use to prepare for the puzzles...)
