Been feeling that my characters spent too much time exploring caves, so I figured it was time to explore abandoned keeps instead.

Been feeling that my characters spent too much time exploring caves, so I figured it was time to explore abandoned keeps instead.
I figured it was about time to update the battle sprite for one of my characters. The old one was the first time I ever drew a battle sprite, and filled with lines that shouldn't be there. So far, the new one is cleaner.
Still working on Chapter 2. I originally said it was done, but decided to extent it a bit more because I felt the story was too fast-paced for my liking.
I don't know how fast everyone works, but it usually takes me three-four months to finish a chapter. Mostly because I usually spend one hour a day to work on the game. Then I need to spend some time thinking on the story and drawing characters.
Is it normal or abnormal?
A new companion for the second chapter for the female protagonist's route. Although I say new, this character is one of the four original character that I have planned from the beginning. She underwent some redesign as I improved my drawings.
Handshake protocal activated.
Developing chapter 2 for the male protagonist had its highs and lows, but at least I am getting close to ending it and move on.
Been slightly struggling with developing the latest chapter, I think I will downscale my ambitions and make it more linear.
Good thing I asked my friend to playtest one of my chapters for me. He found bugs that I wasn't aware of.
As I am very soon going to let my friends play the demo of my game, I am fixing those annoying color lines that appears on top of the characters head durng battles
Gamemaking has been slower, but I do my best to make small progress every day.
A part of me wants to return back to the beginning and first two chapters and remake them with parallax map. But I have decided not to. Every chapter is just another step in the journey. No need to walk back unless I have to revise dialouge.
I like new party members. Unfortunately, that also means a whole new set of SV for them
Those can be tedious to draw
Made a surprising amount of progress in these past two days. Really helps when parallax mapping breaks limitation and allowing me to be creative and make maps that match my vision.
I am starting to get a hang of this parallaxing mapping business. Still inexperienced, but at least I can be a lot more creative now
Well that was three hours of work down the drain, because GIMP froze and I forgot to save anything.
Doing more paralaxing. It isn't much, but it looks a lot less blocky now
The more I continue with game development and story writing, the more I understand why developers redesign characters. Rarely do the first design fit into the final draft.
My first attempt to do make my map different than standard titleset. Always room for improvement, but at least it is not a static map anymore.
For the next chapter, I am trying to figure out how paralax mapping works. I already know how to import and create my own assets, but my mapping can be better
Finally finished with another chapter, from start to finish! Now it is just playtesting and balancing! -

it's half comic/half visual novel!
Is it interesting to get more backstory on villains? A key moment in their past, their childhood, or maybe something that shows they've always been that way? To see or not to see?

Want for a Nail: I'm trying to figure out what controllers work with MZ, one support thread, a plugin request thread, a dead controller, and a $48 eBay purchase, and a PS1/PS2 USB adapter later. Still stuck with keyboard controls...
