It's an overlay done in photoshop; looks nicer, but it's about a million times more complicated to use. You'd have to do it as a panorama, and then use pictures for any 2nd/3rd layer objects and... yeah. Worth the effort usually!

I was kinda bored, I wanted to work with your cave. This is sorta how I envision it...
It is a bit rough, but feel free to use it.

Very impressive. You took his map and gave it steroids.

that looks epic! Is that all original art?

It's like...an action battle system that allows you to control 4 characters at the same time. They have 3 basic "formations" and you can do the Principal Intervention to cast skills to support them. It's almost done so I'll let the game explain more about it

Haha we'll see @_@;;
Well, it IS a complete game that has missing files and buggy code so I'm fixing and prettifying it for now. But it's like working on a new project at this rate >:V

Finished the character selection screen:

If everything goes well, I hope by the end of February. But by then I'll probably send it off to friends for beta testing before I attempt to release it publicly ahahaha OTL

Palette Swaps for different weapons (If anyone knows a better way to do this in Game Maker than making extra sprites for every weapon, let me know)

Don't think there's anything like that in there, sorry, but in case you are doing 2 sprites for each animation (like walking left and walking right) then I suggest centering the x origin on the sprites and rotating them using image_xscale = 1 (-1 = reversed). That way you only need 1 sprite for each action, it saves a lot of time and headache.

But if you aren't doing this from the get go it can be really painful to go around changing the x origin of each sprite and then evaluating the effects that has to the gameplay (collisions especially).
