Cool stuff! Not sure about the leaf blowing thing you got going on, it's really starting to be overused and I don't think they enhance the scene. Its sort of like the next trend comparable to overly-obscuring fogs or overdone (generic) lighting effects.

Hm. I don't know about any trends with the blowing autumn leaves, but I used them because I think the bright red leaves look nice contrasted with the semi-sepia tone hues. I know it doesn't make much sense logically either to have autumn leaves blowing, but oh well. Thanks for the comment, regardless!

Every one of the last 5 rmvx games I have opened has the same scripted leaf blowing effect being used. I would say it's common enough now, that the effect isn't going to make any eyes pop anyway. And everything else you show seems clear you are trying for that quality look. So I think if it doesn't make sense, just cut it out. it would be weird if someone actually thought "these leaves blowing... all the prettier". It wouldn't be missed.
On a complimentary note, rmvx has lots of detractors over its visual style. This game was the first game that showed me that rmvx can look nice without creating all custom graphics. Since then, some other games have showed it too. But I see Linus as a pioneer of good looking rmvx games.

Aw. Thanks. That's very sweet of you to say that about Linus. Still, I like how the blowing leaves look. I suppose it doesn't bother me that much because I rarely play VX games as it is, so I don't see the blowing leaves all that often. :)
