It is a remake of ''[[Power Master 1: A Strange Journey]]'' with updated graphics, new characters [[Matt]] and [[Alice]], and new mechanics. It was originally being developed alongside ''[[Power Master 2: The Legend]]'' as well,<ref name=PM1MV/> however, [[Alexander Bodine|the creator]] later stated he will be focusing more on ''Power Master: A Strange Journey MV'' instead. On December 1st, 2017, a new trailer was uploaded showing game progress and the new title of "''Power Master: A Strange Journey MV''", omitting the "1"<ref name=Trailer>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADkpdLPEpa4</ref>. A release for the Nintendo eShops is in the works<ref>https://www.marioboards.com/index.php?topic=37837.msg1933997#msg1933997</ref>, and a release for Steam was also being made, but was deemed by the creator to be "no longer viable" due to financial issues, but could still happen later on<ref>https://www.marioboards.com/index.php?topic=37837.msg1941736#msg1941736</ref>. The full game will also support these formats. ==Gameplay== The plot of the game is the same as in the original: [[Exitilus]] has returned from the [[Paradox Dimension]] and wishes to regain control of the [[Gems]]. [[Stephan]], [[Jennifer]], [[Hamilton]], and [[Helen]] return as playable characters, with new characters Matt and Alice, who were first mentioned in the ''[[Power Master 1R Story]]'', appearing as well. The controls for this game are the same as in the original, though the buttons can be mapped to different keys through an in-game menu. "Z" is used to activate objects and confirm commands, "X" is used to open up the menu and cancel commands, and the arrow keys are used to move. Additionally, the mouse's left and right buttons can be used to control the player character, with the left being used to click on a tile to move to and activate objects and the right being used to open up the menu and cancel commands. ===Confirmed characters=== The final game will have nineteen characters, fifteen more than the original game. Characters originally had different portraits based on what armor they wear<ref>[https://twitter.com/PMAlexBodine/status/1114558941537505281 Screenshot Saturday showing the armor event build]</ref>, though the armor properties have since been adjusted after changing art style<ref>[[facebook:2480240665354049|The results of a poll]]</ref>. *[[Stephan]] *[[Jennifer]] *[[Hamilton]] *[[Helen]] *[[Alice]] *[[Matt]] *[[Ma'dine]] *[[Octavis]] *[[Andrew]] *[[Andrea]] *[[Dakota]] ===Differences from the original game=== As an updated version of ''Power Master 1: A Strange Journey'', ''Power Master: A Strange Journey MV'' improves on some mechanics, graphics, and has other changes. *While the story remains the same, most of the dialogue has been completely rewritten. *Enemies now appear on the field and move around, allowing the player to seek out which enemy they want to fight or to avoid them entirely. *Items and [[Ser]]s appear on the field as well, with Sers being picked up upon being touched and items being collected through the action button. *[[Treasure Chamber]]s appear. *[[:Category:Skills|Skills]] are no longer learned through leveling up, instead being learned by finding and reading the respective book. **Likewise, [[:Category:Magic Books|Magic Books]] are used to teach the character a spell and are no longer equippable. *Additional characters, enemies, quests, items, armor, and weapons are added. ==Development== {{main|Power Master: A Strange Journey MV/Changelog}} A later post by [[Alexander Bodine]] showed several swords, a few axes, and a number of scripts that will be in the game, or are at least being tested for the game. Of the weapons, some returning ones are [[Iron Sword]], [[Fire Sword]], and [[Silver Axe]], along with some new ones such as [[Platinum Sword]], [[Attack Slayer]], and [[Stephan's Blade]]. Of them, only Stephan's Blade's info is shown, which also confirmed a use of [[Counter Attack]]s.<ref name=PM1MV/> Of the scripts, the slippery tiles found in areas like [[Lora Grotto]] return, as well as various expansions to the message, saving, and controller configuration systems are added. Most of the scripts provided are from the [http://yanfly.moe/plugins/en/ Yanfly Engine] database.<ref name=PM1MV/> Additional menus and options will also be added. Players can now configure the buttons on their keyboard and controllers, save, load, and delete files from the same menu, and view stat changes within [[Shop]]s. Also revealed is the information of a standard sword, simply called [[Sword]], showing it to have a Counter Attack as well.<ref>[[facebook:1353286214716172]]</ref> Additionally, enemies will now appear in and move around the fields, allowing players to easily find the enemies they want to fight or avoid them entirely.<ref name=PM1MV /> Originally, the game would have utilized side-view battles, along with [[:Category:Magic Spells|magic spells]] and [[:Category:Lances|lances]]<ref>http://powermaster64.deviantart.com/art/Stephan-SV-Actor-654093776?ga_submit_new=10%253A1483037496</ref>, however the side-view battles was later dropped<ref>[[facebook:1498006636910795]]</ref>, though was eventually re-added using character windows instead<ref>https://www.facebook.com/PowerMasterRPG/photos/a.605065082871626.1073741828.604636349581166/1692380967473360/?type=3&theater</ref>.
