The battlecharas and animations have been redone. We found that having the battlechara disappear and including it in the battle animation for the attacks gives us much much more flexibility. The same goes for hiding the monster set to do fancy attacks on the party.

Also, we're going with monster graphics based off the ingame charasets. The reason being that a great majority of the enemies you fight are human. It's not the prettiest look, but it's nice and consistent with the human party member battlecharas. And it's within the range of our spriting abilities, drawing up enemy graphics with weapon poses.

Lastly, the battle backgrounds will be capped straight from the maps where the fights happen. This does two things: A) makes it easier to have a good matching background. B) gives it that Chrono Trigger feel where you fought right where the encounter happens.

There's a few trailers up now. I'm not sure if they should be on the front page or in a separate one, but there they are. The last video with the rebels is from rather later in the game, but I wanted to show someone talking other than Phenix.

As for the playable demo we have planned soon, Bones is in the process of remaking the battle charasets for a few characters. We're gonna finish those before we put out a demo.

But until then, if you have any questions about the game or what it's about, ask it here. I'm having a lot of trouble writing a synopsis, since there's several unrelated stories running at once, so any questions might help. I added a characters page with a list of a few POVs. There'll be more and some descriptions for each one up, eventually.
