Yes, to clarify it is 4 directional step movement.

Currently my first person dungeon crawler uses the strafe movement. What this means is the camera always faces forward as you move. I was wanting feedback on what style of movement system should I use. How it looks as you move in the game:

Trying something... *Shout out to Skywardriver for getting me to try it.

Basically I changed my gui around and broke the Show Options Event where there are 4 responses. I have gone line through line from my current xml and a fresh xml. There is something I am missing and could use a fresh pair of eyes in helping fix this. Current XML http://www.ascensiongamedev.com/resources/filehost/4b4384dcb59d824b8a03ef98529558eb.xml Screenshot of Bug (Shows 2 Responses, other 2 are cut off)

Download a free program like Gimp (or use Photoshop if you have it) and make the background transparent. · Download Gimp and open the PNG file(s). · Go to Layer – Transparency and Click Add Alpha Channel. · Go to Tools – Selection Tools- and Click By Color Select. · Click The Background Color – Hit Delete · The background now should be a checkered black and grey. · Check to Make Sure Sprite wasn’t damaged by deletion of same color. · File - Save. (Note This can be done for Icons, Tilesets, or any PNG file you are using)

I like the second one, but the first one seems too shiny in that top right corner. Took me a second to realize what it was.

I do free form writing in a notebook, until I get everything finished. Then I start writing it up in a Word Document (maps, characters, dialogue, etc). After everything is done, then I begin working on the game within the engine. Having a well-written game design document is essential.

No worries, we all started here. The reason you are getting a white border is because the Icon itself has a white border below the pink background and grey horn. Same issues with the NPCs I would wager. The Icons most likely can be resized, but for the NPCS (and perhaps some icons), you need to add an alpha channel and make the background transparent. Icon Resize 1) Resize the horn icon to remove the white border at the bottom. Depending on how many icons you have that are like this, it may take a while. OR 2) You can also resize them to 32x32 and make sure the entire 32x32 is filled with the horn and pink background. Just like this. Adding Alpha Transparency to a PNG: 3) Download a free program like Gimp (or use Photoshop if you have it) and make the background transparent. · Download Gimp and open the PNG file(s). · Go to Layer – Transparency and Click Add Alpha Channel. · Go to Tools – Selection Tools- and Click By Color Select. · Click The Background Color – Hit Delete · The background now should be a checkered black and grey. · Check to Make Sure Sprite wasn’t damaged by deletion of same color. · File - Save. (Note This can be done for Icons, Tilesets, or any PNG file you are using) Hopefully this will help you out.

As Gibier said, you can use an Event to take 1 bar away, then randomize a variable with conditional branches to set how many iron nails the player gets back.

Keep up the great work!

Great work. Keep us updated!

I agree with most of your list; however, I would like to add Chrono Trigger and Final Fantasy 6 as must play games. I would argue that Chrono Trigger is the best rpg ever created. Every aspect of it is top-notch.

Welcome to the forum! Btw love that someone else has played Blood and Magic.
