I've been quite busy on Ver. 1.3 of ERD so far, diversifying the game's world, making things more consistent, both gameplay and music wise ( it is extremely hard to find decent battle music that matches my game's Celtic-inspired soundtrack ) and generally just polishing things up. I should take a leaf out of Phantasy Star 4's NPCs...

Presentation wise, here's the new title screen.


Pretty sparkles animate.

I've also been working on some new portraits. I'm not sure if I should use them, though. Here's a WIP of Laine.


Looks familiar, doesn't she? ^^ I hope I got her proportions right this time.

I can't guarantee a release date anytime soon, though. Once the testing is done, will I release a proper 'demo' and start requesting reviews for ver. 1.3.
