    Not to mention how he proudly stated there were 'thousands' of him. It'd certainly be interesting if it turns out he was infected. Also, kinda on a different note but the AI systems in EH's Sector X that Slippy described as being like a networked computer are like a hive mind. Maybe Andross was experimenting with Aparoid DNA at some point? Maybe Spyborg was meant to be a prototype artificial Aparoid Queen under Andross' control, but it rebelled and started making mock Aparoids in the form of sentient AI drones using adandoned Venom ships as a foundation. But back to Andross himself, if he turns out to be part Aparoid by the time the player faces him, it'd be an interesting way to connect Assault to the rest of the series, especially if Andrew remains the first casualty of the Aparoid Invasion. I know Command said Andrew didn't actually die, but Command said Pigma didn't actually die too, so...

It was never explicitly said if there were more systems within the galaxy it was set in, or if Lylat was pretty much "it" and they didn't develop true FTL travel. Honestly I like this way better as it alludes to there being a whole lot more that COULD be added.

As soon as Pepper ignored killing Venomian civilians, Fox would have pulled back. Instead, he carries on following orders. He had the opportunity to do strafing runs on the highways, but the player didn’t. Wouldn’t be shocked if he did given the opportunity again. + At 1:01, I love the air raid siren. The Venomian fleet has pulled back, but is all but gone. Most they can do is literally shield the streets so civilians can get to shelters. +Andross wont be the final boss.

    When a couple weeks passed without any updates, I held the faith. I assumed you were re-making the Venom mission to do it proper justice, including a retake on the Andross boss fight. And that faith was rewarded. Andross might have established himself as beyond sympathy, but General Pepper's willingness to open fire with the big guns despite lingering civilian presence makes me wonder if maybe Venom's Supreme General Emperor was onto something when he said that Pepper wasn't exactly a paragon of justice. And taking what Andross said as Fox rocketed towards his lair into account, I get the feeling this is gonna come back and bite us in later missions. The billboards and propoganda got a grin out of me. Props for turning one of Andross' more memorable lines into a catchphrase for his P.R. department! And, let's get to it, shall we? Andross himself. The buildup to the confrontation was amazing. The light playing across Andross' face made it clear that SOMETHING had changed since he'd contacted Fox last. But even knowing what to expect from Star Fox 64, you did a perfect job of encapsulating Fox's horrified shock at seeing what Andross had become. For a moment, the smooth retro head beneath Andross' skull left me wondering if it was all a facade, and that the original Andross was operating this new mech from a pilot's seat...and then it, too, was blown away, and you established to us just how far Andross was willing to go to preserve his own existence. Including the surprise fourth stage of the fight -- I literally gaped for a moment or two, wondering just what the HELL was going on. Had Andross' regenerative abilities kicked into overdrive after his brain suffered critical damage?! All to the exchanged verbal blows between Fox and Andross, giving their battle more weight and meaning. And, even as James appeared to give his son some classic aid in escaping the exploding lair, I was left to wonder...are there more versions of Andross being kept in the lab, or in fallback facilities? Could some clone of him be re-activated later down the line, to continue his mad ambition to be remembered forever (or to continue living up to his part of his bargain with Drakor, whatever it may be)? And just what the heck happened to turn Andross from a sharp-dressed, cigar-smoking generalissimo into...THAT? Was it his own mad genius in bio-weaponry? Or was his enigmatic ally on the red screen involved, somehow...?

    I was actually somewhat shocked at Pepper's willingness to consider civilian casualties as acceptable. I understand in war that sometimes it is inevitable, especially when engaging in an urban environment. And while it is true that the city appears to be built around the lab it still doesn't excuse indiscriminate bombardment of the city. I fully understand that perhaps Pepper was caught up in the moment, the second Lylat war had probably gone on for a few months at this point with horrendous amounts of casualties on both sides, and Pepper deciding the best course of action is just a straight hammer blow and allowing himself and any of his men to vent their loss and frustration through destruction of the enemy. Pepper may well not be a saint and I'm not making excuses for him but he perhaps does have his reasons and it's possible some of his troops would "accidentally" fire on the city anyway for reasons mentioned above

    I remember seeing the previous proof-of-concept video for Venom many years back, and I must say, this version is such an amazing overhaul. Changing what was originally a barren mesa from the original games into a wide-reaching cityscape fitted with propaganda posters only an egomaniacal planetary dictator like Andross would love was a bold choice for the level, and I love it. I also loved how this level was extended from the original. Though if I have some complaints, it’s that the first stage is over way too soon. I would’ve loved if Pepper’s fleet was occasionally accosted by more enemy fleets responding to the invasion while they continued to drill into the shaft leading to Andross’ Lab, concluded with the Star Wolf team intercepting the Star Fox team in Wolfen IIs much like in Star Fox 64. The second stage where Fox goes after Andross was perfect though. However, I think it would’ve been great if the green haze from the surface didn’t follow down to Andross’ Lab. I don’t know if it’s possible or easy to program, but could the green haze be replaced with orange/red industrial lighting to make things easier to see? Thanks for taking the time to read my post. 👍

Wonder if you've given him some new attacks or- 10:05 - JESUS CHRIST!!! WHAT THE HELL!!! Real talk, though. I've been following this project for a few years now, but seeing the amazing work you've posted in the last couple months alone has been nothing short of stellar. You've taken the Star Fox series that Nintendo has seemingly written off as a kid-friendly space fighter game to be dusted off whenever they want to showcase a new hardware feature to a compelling space opera that has the best traits of _Firefly,_ _Star Wars: The Clone Wars,_ and _Battlestar Galactica._ And you've done it all without sacrificing the goofy charm of the characters or setting. Between this and Esphirian's STARFOX REMADVENTURES its an exciting time to be a fan of the series. My only regrets are that both projects aren't getting nearly as much attention as they deserve and that Nintendo will probably never do something as ambitious as this with the main franchise. Also, I'm not sure if Pepper's "Godspeed, Star Fox" at 3:21 was a reference to the OCRemix version of the SNES Corneria theme. If not, then I'll chalk it up to being a happy coincidence.

    What gets me are the little details, Growing up playing the original on the snes Venon 2 route, I remember the highway stage. When Fox flew over the highway, (A nod to Venom 2 route) seeing those people flee the war zone, all I thought was, "No! For the love of god, don't do it! They are not your enemy!" I thought for sure, in a moment of rage, he was going to straff that highway. Those three seconds of suspense was masterful indeed. Well done!

    Commenting again after a year, but I really like how EH's General Pepper is not an absolute bastion of moral character as he's depicted as in the official games. The reveal that Corneria's current political situation was the result of a military coup led by him, Colonel Shears and Andross to overthrow an "old directorate" is a tantalizing bit of backstory that I would love to see elaborated on. This also turns the Lylat Wars into a Black vs. Gray situation - Andross is absolutely the villain and a total monster, but Pepper is far from a saint - he justifies collateral damage and the killing of civilians as "justice for Corneria City", and uses the excuse of "Andross is using them as shields". Peppy's and Andross' comments about Pepper's choice to allow innocents to be killed making him look bad (as it should) is another nice dose of realism - Pepper is a morally gray character who is trying to seem like Corneria's faultless protector, but with the cameras rolling, the public will apparently be able to see him for what he is. And Andross seems to believe that Corneria's people are morally upright enough to scorn Pepper for it.

    Jeez, like Andross as a brain wasn't scary enough! Now he went full Beholder? What, did he mutate himself with a Bacoon or something? But wow, talk about making things even more terrifying. That said, I really liked how the tone shifted. It starts with the hints of things worse like Pepper not giving a damn about collateral (and, tellingly, Fox being utterly silent until he's diving in...) before shifting to pure boss fight. TBH, I have a hunch that Andross is wrong unless everyone around Corneria was fishing for an excuse to go after them. After all, in context, Venom has been war criming their way across the conflict and Pepper's attack is essentially immediately after a giant perfidy stunt. Unless Andross has his propaganda ministry in overtime with lots of bots to feed a false narrative? Either way, a great way to show the greyer aspects of the conflict without bashing us over the head with it (especailly since, let's be honest, Pepper is absolutely right). Is there going to be a cutscene between this and the last mission? I imagine that part of the reason Fara wasn't brought up here was that it's either already addressed or it's going to be dealt with after the battle. I was honestly expecting Andross to make a comment about it though, especially as part of the 'you lost everything'. Out of curiosity, have you considered a special infinite boost for the James-leads-Fox-out section? Maybe Fox does a 'shunt all power to the engines' stunt because he knows he needs speed and it's not like he's going to shoot anything? Might help with the cinematic feel of Fox flying out as fast as possible. Either way, amazing work!

    He still launched an attack immediately without letting the civilians evacuate so Pepper will probably get some flak for that, but like you said he just blantenly committed a false surrender mere minute prior to the attack so even if you disregarded all the war crimes Venom committed that singular act destroyed any possibility of trusting them. Because of this Pepper will likely not get to much bad rep because at that point he was well within his right to view any and all attempts at negotiation or partial surrender as deception and any advanced warning to be used against him. Combine that with the fact that Andross built his lab/main military base in the center of a major population center (which I'm fairly certain is breaking a few laws in of itself) and I think most Individuals will agree that there was not a good way to go about this. So yeah Andross kinda shot himself in the foot with the false surrender bit (which I highly doubt went unrecorded, and I will eat one of my hats if it was) because even if he managed to broadcast the attack without context, it's not going to take much to prove Pepper was fully in the right to order said attack.

    >Everyone's reaction to Andross' surprise final form - "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!?!?!?!?!?!" >Me after seeing it - "Eh, I've seen freakier and uglier bosses in other games." Joking aside this was a really good remake of the Venom mission even though on the hard route in 64 was a damn nightmare to do cause you not only had to deal with souped up Star Wolf fighters (and those bastards ALWAYS went for Fox) but the brain phase of the Andross fight was a pain in the ass especially when it started teleporting all over the place and you get caught in the tentacle like appendages. The first phase wasn't too difficult but that phase always had me pulling my hair out trying to beat it. And then theres the escape part, lose track of where James went and you end up dieing, that or if you lost your wing(s) you'll be pingponging all of the place and blowing up on a random wall. Also nice mix of the SNES (which I never fully played) and 64 Andross boss (which I have played and beaten on all routes). It is a bit concerning that Pepper didn't give a damn about the civilians but after the false surrender the previous mission, he's well within his rights to do what is necessary to get at Andross whose base is in the middle of the damn city which is probably breaking a lot of military protocols anyway and I highly doubt the Cornarian people will see it the wrong way like Andross tries to convince Fox. I didn't really notice the billboards like others did aside from seeing Andross' picture on them, probably wouldn't be able to read what was said on them anyway unless I squinted real hard.

It's those kind of details that really make this project charming. I was really disappointed to not see any kind of celebration for the 30th anniversary of the series, and at this point I believe we won't be seeing any official star fox games in the future, but at least I know there are fans with this dedication and love for the games out there. Impressed by how far the game has come since compared to the few years before, incredible work! "Only *I* have the brain to rule Lylat!"

Also, those propaganda posters are both worrying(if the Venomians are THAT easily made to believe Andross's lies), and somewhat amusing. Lastly, I'm a little worried that general pepper is going to go off the deep end by the end of the game, with or without being infected by Aparoids.

    A few design tips for the final Andross form but I think the snout area should have Andross’s nose visible and maybe depending on how many eyes you destroy in the brain phase his final form is different. Also maybe after destroying each tentacle thing on the side of his head you have to shoot the eye in his mouth.

Phase 3 with the Brain, I expected (though not being able to attack the eyes as far as I can tell confused me for a bit, nothing I had worked on them and the lock-on wouldn't target them) Phase 4, _I WAS NOT EXPECTING._ ANDROSS, WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO ...I went into this one in the Arwing Phoenix.
