Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. I'm currently working on the first part of the game, adding new abilities and such. As far as the music goes, the idea is that whoever is leading the party determines the current battle music (excluding boss fights). If you don't like the music, you can swap your party leader. But if enough people hate it, I might change it, but I think it's fun :D (It's from Live A Live for anyone wondering)

@AgentAshRiot: I love that battle video you made and hope you don't give up and make a demo or something. But for the love of god don't use that music in the battles please.

Totally one of my favorite battle themes from one of my favorite games.

also I think that having different battle themes for leading characters is a great idea. how many battle themes are there going to be?

I really like the battle system, but that cursor sound makes my ears bleed, especially because you have to navigate through skills and menus and such. Oh, and I hope that is just a test victory message

@AgentAshRiot I was actually watching that, earlier around midnight when it finally loaded, after you said it was valkyrie profile inspired xD
Is it Turn by Turn and the square things is stamina to allow you to do the other actions? (Wow I can't type today)

I know I'm not that great a mapper, but does orange-ish water appeal to anyone else? I love water thats deeply colored of the sort.

And yes blah blah blah overused overlay.

[Screens]

A few things I need to bring up.

1. Are you a fan of Sonata Arctica?
2. A hero traversing a mountainous forest in search of an herb needed for someone's gift, to me, screams "A Home Far Away".
3. The overlay of the smaller screen doesn't seem to make all that much sense, as there doesn't seem to be any trees atop those cliffs. The orange water would look fine if the sun was setting and it's light reflecting off of the water, otherwise it just looks polluted.

"2. A hero traversing a mountainous forest in search of an herb needed for someone's gift, to me, screams "A Home Far Away"."

Actually, this sounds like a typical generic herb gather quest used in many, many games. I can promise you that A Home Far Away was not the first to use it.

Some great screens here guys. I'm really digging that battle system!

I assume the water's muddy.
And Ash, I definitely like some of your ideas, especially the "leader music" one. I'd thought of doing something similar once, except there would have been different instrumentation. Same battle theme, different instruments. BTW, if you need more music I've been wandering to find some- I could throw you some links.

I'm guessing your a democrat, also.
