Ocean, I like what you've done to update the water autotile and can understand the frustration with the vxAce autotiles. If you want good looking shores, consider making them regular tiles. I doubt you're using the tiles to their capacity with a retro tileset like that.
Also, some 'in between' mountains would be nice. Something at a +16, +16 offset so they don't look so singled out.
I like what you started in the top right with the ground texture, too. I'd apply that throughout, and make some differentiations for various areas; The blank tile doesn't look good. It looks like un-sprited empty space.
OK done, added some texture to the floor so it's not blank, the mountain thing and all! Will make some variation for the coast too with the upper tiles as well.
What Engine is this?
RMVX Ace

@Ocean: Why so blocky? D: I really think you should make the coastline look more 'natural', no matter how much you want to emulate that retro-game aesthetic. It would only be more visually appealing that way. Btw, I love how smoothly shaded those mountains and trees are.That's less emulating retro-game aesthetic and more "RMVX Ace autotiles are awful". I can see what I can do though.

Better?

Looking for this game!
Is that Legends of the Philosophers stone? Might be that, but maybe if you can remember any other info on it (however silly) then that might help too!

Raciela
That is weird, I did play the full intro. I will check though and get back to you on that! And then play more of the game too.
Raciela

I enter this area and my character doesn't appear? I didn't quite explore the 1st town so I don't know if I was supposed to do something first or if this was out of sequence or whatever but I got a black screen upon entering and it went away when I opened the menu and closed out but my characters were gone.
So far I like the details here so far, the tiles and maps are done well! I saw the whole intro, wasn't bored. It switches up the scenarios, starts off with something interesting happening, and has good effort put into it. I'll play more of it later and see how it turns out.
