Oh, how wrong I was, lol...
Ha, that's very flattering. Thank you. Though I'm curious what you'll think of Ara Fell: Complete (or whatever the hell I end up naming it).
One of the problems with having your own soundtrack composer, especially when you're not writing it yourself, is that all of Ara Fell's songs were initially selected because I thought they fit their respective scenes perfectly, at least to my ear.
Now there's a layer of abstraction between what I want and what I have. And it's still good. Ara Fell's soundtrack is very nice, if I do say so myself.
But it's not the same. Not everything feels the same, despite my best efforts. I wonder how that will impact people who appreciated the "feel" of the original.
New Developer Mapping Help Thread
Fair enough. I won't disagree with you if that's what you want this thread to be for. It's a good idea.
But I wonder if that's too narrow of an avenue. Maybe this could just be a thread to talk about mapping in general.

Wait, I thought that her name was “Lily” (...or have I been wrong this whole time???)
Now I’m even more confused…
Originally, the game was going to be like Secret of Mana with an action battle system with 3 characters, 2 of which were AI controlled. Lily (who was later renamed to Alaia when I changed the story) was going to be the magic user of the party, and she was originally a student at the magic academy with a school uniform.

They're not ripped, I watched them get made, and directed the progress of them myself. Not that you're asking me to prove it, but I think it's kind of interesting to see this stuff from start to finish, so here's the original sketch of the title screen.

There will be a demo. And I'll leave the current version up until the new release is ready.
As for the pony tail not suiting her... well, fair enough, but that woman in the AFXP screenshots isn't Lita. She's Alaia.

I also reused a dungeon from Tarion Star for Ara Fell! In my defense, I... think that one didn't actually make it into anywhere playable in the game.

Looks like I can delete the old version on my own, so I think that should be okay.
And thanks! I'll look forward to your review. Unfortunately, I've probably got probably a few months of this left. I'm down to the last dungeon, reworking the intro, adding the final cutscene (which is going to be a bitch...) a few side dungeons and a few more sidequests, and that should be about it for new content. Everything else is ready.

Well, this profile is for a free, incomplete, and ten year old version of the game that has a few reviews for the old version. If the new version is going to be commercial I'd suggest leaving this one be and just making a new profile, but it's up to you.
Well, you're the submissions manager, so I absolutely respect your opinion on this. If you ever ask me to make a new page in an official capacity, I won't argue with you. But I think revisiting and completing an old project still qualifies it as that same project. I'm not too concerned with the reviews being outdated, as they don't really get into the faults I'm attempting to fix.

Speaking of reviews, if you're looking for someone to review the new version of Ara Fell when you're done, let me know. I've been looking for something to do for my hundredth review...
I'd be honored.
