I just got a crazy idea while walking home yesterday. I came up with it just like that; it would be awesome if we, here at Ancient land of Ys (well, at least some of us, hopefully) made a game, and a pretty unique one at that. What I had in mind was to make a game with most (of not all) important characters from all the different Falcom games (including obscure titles such as Star Trader, etc) and the aspects of those. Imagine, exploring a small landscape together with Adol, Popful Mail and Pipiro, all at once! wouldn't that be cool? Or walking around in a side scrolling cave, with the hero from Faxanadu and the Sorcerian-gang!
The whole idea is a crazy, fun and weird game which will never be repetitive! The style of the game will change all the time! It can start out with some side scrolling jungle exploring with Popful Mail, then some space travel a'la Star Trader. And maybe you will meet Rhea and Feena along the road, together with some cats and dogs out of Zwei!!.
Well, if anybody is interested in this, I could start out on the game, but some help with character sprites, etc. would be greatly appreciated. I you are interested, I can provide you with the desired Falcom games and an emulator (if you don't have one already). The idea is to include characters from the following games (and more, of course):
The whole idea of this game is a bit silly, but that is also the main point of this game, but only hardcore Falcom fans would be able to enjoy it fully, I think.
Anyway, what do you think of this idea? And does anybody have an idea for a title?

The idea is to include characters from the following games (and more, of course):
- Ys (from multiple versions such as the Saturn versions, etc)
- Popful Mail (Sega-CD voices can be taken for something extra)
- Sorcerian (three people following another person and does the exact same thing, it's excellent!)
- Legacy of the wizard (a.k.a. Dragon Slayer IV: Draslefamily) (great characters)
- Star Trader (horizontal space travel; it's ideal)
- Zwei!! (well, saving kittens has to be part of the game)
- Asteka (not sure how to use it, but it needs to be in there)
- The Legend of Heroes (a prince escaping his village to fight slimes, what can I say?
- Xanadu (I take that back, I hate Xanadu. )
- Romancia (that guy MUST be part of the game!)
