I wish I could call the statues mine, but they're not. XD

Nova's EXPLOSIVE Art Dump!

Ah, yes. I can definitely see it now. You used Vanguard Ike's design as inspiration for that WIP suzy pointed out. XD

@Craze: But you still made some valid points. =)


Since I have my graphics editor open atm, I decided to just pallete-swap the pillars and darken the walls. The archway still needs a bit of work though.


Edit: Hmm... no tint.

@Pizza: Ah yes. Those waterfalls are still the default RTP that somehow got muddled up when I was pallete-swapping my custom water tiles. >< I see that I did indeed made a mapping error there. And I need to fix those pillars again. I think they look even more muddy now.

Yes, yes you're right, Craze. Maybe I should make the pillars the same colour as the archway. Or just make them lighter. I'll see what works best.

I was thinking of shadows, but decided against it. The scene looks nice enough as is. ^^ I am pretty chuffed with the way my tiles are turning out.

Nova's EXPLOSIVE Art Dump!

You have improved quite a bit, Nova. And is your Mia perhaps inspired by Fire Emblem's? XD ( same hair and eye colour lol )

Heeeeeeey

Oh hi, suzy. I wondered where you disappeared off to. Still digging that avatar of yours. XD

Oh, Dante will appear soon enough. It's just that I've redone the entire game with regards to plot and character relevance ( Dante is actually more important now, since he's a Prince trying to stave off an impending war over the High Throne aka Genoa ). So he will appear in the demo. =) I haven't neglected either of them.

I was going to make a sprite of them huddled together, but thought better of it. Maybe later in the game. A sort of... visual indicator that they're growing closer together XD( since Tristy is a bit of an ice-queen in the beginning ).


Because she's your fearless, devoted lady knight. <3

Touched up some tiles ( in the original you can still see some tiny black lines on the cliff tiles and I lightened the outline of the rocks ).

Alternate Methods of Gaining Skills Rather Than Level-Up

I'm using a combination of what Nova suggested ( equipment grants temporary skills ) and a JP-system as seen in FFT ( where characters unlock skills and passive abilities through a new currency called 'JP' from defeating foes ). It's a bit hard to balance atm. Even though I can impose restrictions such as having to learn a base skill first or just lock the skill for story-reasons, I'm also trying to negate the 'grind-factor' that comes with a system like this.

So I like giving the players other options as well in the form of skill orbs, crafting new items etc. Even doing those oft-ignored sidequests could reward your character in some way or the other by having an NPC teach them a new skill ( ala Duncan teaching Sabin Phantom Rush XD ).
