Using the Garry's Mod version of our very own WarfareMachine Krystal Rig, YouTube user HaydeeTheGame demonstrates Krystal running around and exploring a map in Garry's Mod. Nothing super special, but I thought I'd show it off. Maybe if you wanted to make a Krystal-focused 3rd person shooter or puzzle game, these free assets will give you a big head start.

Here's another video by BvqR zxi5. In these two cutscenes, Krystal faces the giant Tyrannosaurus Rex-like boss, King RedEye. She looks pretty silly in some of this one, because her Staff isn't there and her eye animations don't match up to Fox's. That's just a side-effect of this method of switching Fox to Krystal. Pretty epic, regardless!

Thanks to a Reddit Post, I recently became aware of the existence of what appears to be a promotional booklet given to press and attendees at E3 2002 about Star Fox Adventures. Not entirely sure if that's the source, but that seems likely. Anyway, I quickly found one for sale on Ebay and purchased it. The intent is to scan its contents so you can all see what it contained. There isn't anything super earth-shattering in there as far as I can tell, just the type of stuff you would find in the instruction manual plus a little extra explanation of the game. However, it does provide additional confirmation of Krystal's backstory. Here's what it says about Krystal.

Krystal

Sex: Female

Eyes: Blue

Description:
She's not officially part of the Star Fox Team, but Krystal shares the team's interest in seeing General Scales and his SharpClaw army go down in flames. Roaming the galaxy in search of information about the demise of her home planet and family, Krystal has been drawn into the fray after answering a distress call from Dinosaur Planet. After a short adventure in Krazoa Palace, she will be in need of assistance, too. Eventually Fox and Krystal's paths will intersect -- after peace returns to the planet.

Here's what the cover looks like:

Huge thanks to BvqR zxi5! Because of my previous post about his videos, I reached out to him and he has graciously provided new videos showing lots of new areas Krystal can be warped to in Adventures. She can move around, but her ability to interact with the world is limited, at least with this method. Still, very cool to see Krystal doing the CloudRunner Fortress Race and appearing in Cape Claw.

You can try this yourself with the extensive codes he provided in the video description. These codes probably only work with the USA Version 1.1 of Star Fox Adventures, also known as the Player's Choice version. All these codes should be possible with other versions, but their numbers would be different. Additionally, there's a very good chance you'll crash the game if you try these, so fair warning.

In the coming days, I'll be posting more of these videos. And maybe some of my own.

You might have seen this if you followed on Twitter, but Ayano just posted an update showing off an upgraded Zero Suit Samus suit. Look's fantastic!

Hikaru Cosplay has uploaded some new photos of her Krystal Assault Cosplay. She's been so encouraged that people remember Krystal. (Photos by EternCosplayApp.)

Technicolor Cosplay is cosplaying as Krystal again this weekend at Edmonton Comic Expo. The cosplay's mask has been slightly upgraded with better foam support in the ears. Hope to see pictures soon. Cosplay suit photo from Discord.

For the past two years, Ben Hickling has been slowly working on a Star Fox inspired game called EX Zodiac that pushes all the nostalgia buttons. It's go low-poly models, sprite-based effects, vertex coloring, gibberish communications from the characters, and genuine Star Fox gameplay. It looks like something that we might have seen from a Super FX version 2 if there ever was such a thing. Truth be told, I'm kinda jealous he's working on this. I wanted to make something like this myself!

So far, there's video of a Corneria-like level with tons of different enemies, obstacles, and showcasing both laser and missile weapons. There's over-water level with floating mines, rings to fly through, and cool sprite effects. Here's video of a boss enemy, a giant scorpion robot thing. Check out the links for even more footage and details.

The game is being built in GodotEngine. You can follow the game's development on Twitter, see more footage on the youtube channel, and the project homepage.

In this hack by BvqR zxi5, he shows us an ambitious SharpClaw who rebels against General Scales, helps the Star Fox team defeat the SharpClaws, and wins Krystal in the end. What a touching story!

It's been a while since we had an MMD post. KTL The Lucario created this dance number, which, upon reflection, is hilariously like the plot of Star Fox Command, what with Krystal siding with Wolf temporarily, and Fox and Falco unloading some emotional baggage. This MMD seems to use models from Super Smash Bros Ultimate.

Thanks to some hacking, the amazing BvqR zxi5 has found a cutscene from the original Dinosaur Planet that can be activated inside Star Fox Adventures. It uses the Adventures models, but the animations of the characters and camera are clearly from Dinosaur Planet. In fact, here's the exact cutscene from that game!

The Action Replay code for this cutscene is in the video description.

Linklight was given access to the yet unreleased beta of Super Smash Flash 2, featuring a playable Krystal. He does a complete rundown of her movesets and how it feels to play as Krystal. Then, the video below just shows off high resolution footage with no commentary. Krystal's sprite work and animation looks amazing! Krystal plays very fast with some unique moves not seen in any other character. They even used original voice acting from Assault and Adventures. The team at McLeodGaming have done a fantastic job with Krystal!
