THE SCREENSHOT TOPIC RETURNS

Well again, the plants in general are all walkable (can walk over them) but will give statuses if you do so. So in a way, the plants serve as a mini-maze in their own right. It's gonna be hard to NOT have it be cluttered in this particular dungeon, that's for sure. @_@;;


Not actual Game Footage. Just testing my new tile set on the new engine (the blur-effect will vanish soon).

And you can see the old and the new version of my protagonist. (guess which is which :P)


Command selection menu and targeting is done! Ignore the character in the corner and the icons on the edges (those are debug)
become the next akitoshi kawazu
Cage, that looks awesome :O Make a game page so I can subscribe to it.
Not enough progress yet. I'll do a game page at earliest once CBS is fully functional.
Whoa, Cashmere, is that from Lexical Node? Or Fast Times?
It looks like a painting. You know, it's pretty damn cool.

Oh! It's from my contest entry called Ghost up to the Sky. Thanks for the compliments. :)
Itaju, i'm guessing the one on right is the new one? That really is a flawless chipset. What is this new engine you speak of?

Cage, looking good. The blue haired guy reminds me of some rm-game...

CashmereCat, that's very interesting screenie.. I have no idea what's going on but looks cool. In my mind those swirly things are moving across the screen.

Edit:
Here's my entry for the 10 grand competition:


Still in very early stages..
@0range00: Yep, right one was righ. :P The new engine is something currently in development but it will be available for the public soon (and it's definitely better than the usual RPG makers)



The trees are tile-based so you can make trees easily from different sizes and shapes.
I never thought of making trees like that, good idea. Characterset does look greatly improved too!

@0range00 I really like the coloured-in art style. Keep that ish up!
LockeZ
I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

0range00: Is that Gau talking to Simba's mom?

please say yes
@Orange: there sure is something going on there.... : 3

That's part of what makes the contest so exciting, everyone will be really creative and work hard, the result will be so many different amazing games.
@Itaju Don't the golden trees look out of place amid the green stuff? Or are they supposed to be something magical in the context?


Quite possibly my best mountain map, despite this supposed to be a valley! This is based off of Final Fantasy V's North Mountain area. If you don't know, this is the precise map:




I took a little extra liberty with the map and fleshed it further than that. There may be other stuff on the sides of the cliff/mountain/whatever this is supposed to be to show off more of the Valley of Corpses. Yes, this is supposed to be a valley. But apparently so wasn't Drakenvale/Valley of Dragons in FFV. Which this isn't actually trying to mimic at all save for one room. : S

If you're wondering why there's so much room, well...there are supposed to be plants here, of course, so you want room to get around them...but you also need space to get away from wandering Malboros so...there's the space taken care of. Earlier maps are smaller than this with pathways, with the possibilities of Malboros being in the way (and they aren't going to be nice fellows either to fight...) so yeah...hopefully this is good enough both as a map and for the gimmick at hand. ^^;;

Oh, and no, it's not 100% done as there's no events, flowers, Malboros, etc. yet placed here.
^ that is a nice mountain area. But you're missing that pile of rocks! :-O Is this some FFV remake you're making?


LockeZ, well you sure got my inspirations right, so in a spiritual sense, yes, they are Gau and Simba's mother.

Actually I did have Gau in mind when making the main character as I had just been looking at Yoshitaka Amano's artbooks. While making the sprite and sketches of the character, I tried not to look at anything Gau-related to prevent further similarities. But now that you said it, the sprite ended up looking exactly like Gau! >_<

...meh, his sketches and concept art are still quite different I believe, so I'll probably leave it be.

Got any Dexreth amulets?

Wow, that river looks amazing! Is it going to be animated in the final version?
