Info dump for Gensou Shoujo Wars Dream trial version 0.0.2 follows. I will not distribute any extracted files until the final release of GSWD is announced.
Changes from GSWE:
The level limit is 65 in the demo.
The debug level remains largely the same, except all enemies are at level 99 instead of 60, and there is
no background at all during battles.
Abilities:
Ran's "Shikigami (Ran)" has an effective range of 8 instead of 6.
Kaguya's "Salamander Shield" reduces damage from all weapons by 1200 instead of 1000.
Character skills:
Each character now has an extra common skill slot.
Predict L2 now increases both accuracy and evasion by 35% (instead of 30%).
Conviction/Belief now increases critical rates of all weapons by L1: 10%; L2: 15%.
Extend L2 restores the SP by 33% of the maximum or 30, whichever is greater, when the character's power/morale reaches 150.
Buddhist Power now increases the final accuracy by 3 ? Lv%. Depending on the character's power/morale, it also increases the final damage dealt and final damage received by:
Power | 110 | 120 | 130 | 140 | 150 | 160 | 170 |
Adjustment | 5% | 6.25% | 7.5% | 8.75% | 10% | 12.5% | 15% |
(Previously, this skill increases the Melee/Defense/Accuracy stats of the characters.)
Cirno's "Freeze" now decreases an enemy's final evasion by 25% instead of 20%.
Cirno's "Hot Ice Fairy" now increases final damage by 10% when her power/morale exceeds 130. (Previously this skill amounts to ignoring size penalties)
Patchouli's "The Unmoving Great Library" now increases the threshold of Magic Barrier (Patchouli) by 300.
Chen's and Ran's "Shikigami Enhancement" no longer increase the effective range of their ability.
Lunasa's "Sounds of Melancholy" now works during assist attacks.
Yuyuko's "Dance of the Ghostly Butterflies" is renamed to "Dance of the Ghostly Butterflies+".
Yukari's "Yukari's Item Delivery" can now use the items of any player unit on any other player unit. (Previously she uses her own items on other players, or retrieves them)
Suika's "Power of Density" no longer reduces weapon range.
Wriggle's "Fixed Star on Earth" no longer applies to herself (but applies to the team leader).
Twei's "Strong Luck" now increases gold received by 20% instead of 15%.
Shizuha's "Good Onee-chan" now increases the final damage of support attacks and assist attacks by 25%. (Previously it ignores damage penalties in these cases, but with the introduction of Full Power Mode the new skill yields damage bonus there as well)
Hina's "Scapegoat Hina" now requires that Hina be the leader of her team, but no longer requires the Support Defense skill.
Momiji's "Stiff Wolf" now increases the shield defense activation rate by L1: 15%; L2: 25%; L3: 35% when her power/morale exceeds 120. (Previously, this skill depends on the distance between her and the enemy)
Momiji's "Clairvoyance" now increases the range of all weapons by 1 except those with range 1 and MAP weapons when her power/morale exceeds 105. (Previously it increases her evasion when receiving attack from far enemies)
Yuugi's "Superior Brawling" applies Fury when her power/morale exceeds 130. (Previously it applies Strike and Fury to both herself and the enemy battled)
Yuugi's "In-Fight" and "Matchless Warrior" are swapped. Moreover, "In-Fight" increases the power of melee weapons by 200 instead of 150, and the critical rate by 10% instead of 15%. "Matchless Warrior" works for enemies within a distance of 3 squares. (Previously it only works against adjacent enemies)
Nazrin's Galling Mouse Increases the damage received by an enemy during that turn by 10% whenever she uses Nazrin Pendulum. (Previously, the skill can be used with any weapon for 3 times per stage)
Nazrin's
A Desperate Rat will Bite the Fox always performs critical hits against enemies with a size of L or above. (Previously this skill amounts to ignoring size penalties)
Nazrin's Pendulum Guard reduces damage received by 2000 for 4 times (instead of 3).
Some of these changes might have been in effect after GSWE 1.0.4.
New stuff:
When both units of a team reach 150 power/morale, Full Power Mode activates; if used, the assisting unit can use
any weapon regardless of the weapon range, and there will be no damage penalty. Each team can only use this once per stage.
Characters:
In stage 56,
In stage 57,
In stage 58,

Unused content:
Spoiler:
Unused event tables for stage 59 and 60 exist. Apparently, the player fights Nue in stage 59; Medicine, and Yuuka in stage 60. An enemy version of the Alice character is referenced (probably making Alice a third-side unit).
There is an older version of stage 58 where Meko appears immediately and the other sheep will try to reach part of the corner where the player starts; to get the WP bonus the player must defend that area and make Meko retreat within 10 turns.
There is an unused scenario split where the player chooses between Nameless Hill, Muenzuka, and Human Village in any order; the player will eventually play through all routes (like SRW MX and Impact).
Apart from Murasa, Byakuren may also become the captain of the Palanquin Ship. She may also transform into some sort of hyper mode (like Keine). There does not seem to be any other reference to Byakuren.
The player team table contains the following entries:
- Stage 61: Nue, Medicine, Kogasa
- Stage 62: Shikieiki
- Stage 64: Satori, Koishi
- Stage 65: Mima
- Stage 67: Byakuren, Yukemo, Shinki (this probably means the player will get two Devil Recitations)
- Stage 68: Yorihime, Toyohime, Reisen II
- Stage 69: Hisoutensoku (its sprite appears in stage 57)
- Stage 73: Yuuka (I would be really glad if the entire GSW is longer than even SRW F.)
On stage 59, the "normal" Utsuho form (without Yatagarasu) is unlocked. Moreover the following alternate unit forms are unlocked on stage 61:
- Lily Black;
- Sanae with Kanako, Sanae with Suwako, and possibly an unknown form;
- Nazrin (w/ Pagoda);
- Shou (w/ Pagoda);
- Two alternate forms of Nue; she may have 3 forms for each UFO colour (red, blue, green).
Reisen II also has an alternate form when she joins at stage 68. There is no further information on her apart from these references.
Since Nue's unit data no longer exists, the spirit command Confuse becomes unused. Similarly Soul goes unused as well (previously Yorihime used it in an event); all other spirit commands on the 1st, 3rd and 6th columns are not assigned to anything useful.
Utsuho's fifth weapon, "Abyss Nova" is not implemented, but the end-game event in stage 58 uses that to deal three times as much damage as Meko's HP nonetheless. Also she has unused dialog messages that are possibly reserved for a MAP weapon.
In stage 57, Aya and Hatate obtain "Double spoiler"; Cirno, Rumia, Mystia, Wriggle obtain "Baka-tet Special" (a portmanteau of "Baka" and "quartet", and a play on Final Dynamic Special).
In stage 58, Nitori obtains "Fly! Sanpei Fight".
These weapon data do not appear in the unit definitions, only their names are referenced in the event definitions.
The file-loading procedure contains an unused anti-cheat measure that checks whether the save file indicates a high amount of certain items than expected.
