Right, i'm sure your all wondering what's the battles are gonna be like... well, I'll show you, this updates about battles and what it consists of. The battles are front view just like the old school rpg's, mystic quest legend, earthbound, for example.. so the first picture..
When you enter battles, you get speech from each characters in your party, this might change though as it's hard to get battle sentences already made and trying to sort out voices that I think would sound like dizzy, daisy, theodore, and pogie, (though pogies would mainly be grunts, roars, ect.. lol), is hard to come by.. maybe at a later date i might request voice actors for the battle shouts of each. Also when you enter a battle, you get.. FIGHT appear on screen as in the picture above.
Okay, as you can see, your players are at the bottom, the enemies are in center screen, top of screen is your option that animate as you chose them, left of the screen is the enemy's hp's.. more enemies there are the more bars appear there.
As you fight you will notice speech bubbles appear above your characters heads saying odd little remarks, these are just for something a little extra whilst in battles, see picture above for example. Also whilst fighting, top right of the screen, as you hit you get a combo counter appear, this counts how many times in a row you hit an enemy, get over 2 hit combo, so 3, 4, 5, ect.. and you get extra damage points added onto your next attack round.
The Skills menu whilst in battle is available too for spells, attacking skills, and so forth.
Lastly... Battles will also take place with a darkened tint to the screen if your fighting at night too.
Hope these six updates covers pretty much the basics of the game so far, in total gamplay as in hours you can play up to i've made roughly 3 hours worth of gameplay, thats in a total of 158 single maps so far.. LOL this games gonna be HUGE! {yolkfolk}:eek:
