                                                         - playable characters joining the party

                                                         - new items /weapons/armors

Once you learn how to use an editing program, you'll be able to edit your tile-sets and create variations to your pieces. Items like trees you can make a few different coloured ones, which is what I did. It's really a neat way to add a different look to your game as the most common item used in RPG Maker games are the trees, which is why I only use the single ones with a few colour styles to make them different.  

I think you could learn to do that in a few days. I'm not sure how good it is, but GIMP is a free editing tool and you can put your tile set in there and make some edits. It's an advanced skill to have, just back everything up in your game first before playing with tile-sets so you can undo any mistakes.

Hey, I made a new game and everything was great. You should check out a few of the pictures in the gallery though, as I was able to walk through them. I found one by accident and checked another. The ones closest the the floor tile just need to be modified so they can't be walked by going in to the tile-set menu. 

The default movement of the NPC's is a bit robotic due to the default frequency. This can easily be fixed by using the options. 

Set speed to any that you want, Freq (frequency)  At highest will move the NPC smoothly like in my game without them having sudden pauses. 2x Slower, or Normal is the best to have in my experience. I'm not sure why they didn't smooth the movement when making the new engine. There is so much the makers of RPG Maker don't do which leaves it to the community to sort out, or a paid DLC to fix. :/.

You probably may know this already, Movement type, allows you to set NPC's which can approach the player, move away from the player, or even a custom move route for setting  movements. I hope that little bit of information helps.



If you could also add a different tile here in the apartments, this would give a visual nod that there is exit or an entrance. I was confused first time around, and so I wanted to share this now as I feel it could confuse players not knowing that the exit/entrance is to the side.

My last bit of advice is on the enemies, the pace of battle is slow, which again is RPG Makers fault, I am able to speed mine up using a script. There will be a way with your engine, but I would need to have a look to see if you can change it by altering a the script settings. I would reduce the HP of all the enemies to bring the speed of battle to a close sooner. Some battles can take 3-4 minutes which is pretty long. Make them short and snappy, that way it'll encourage wanting to battle more. It's totally something I would change from experience. Put longer battles in later in the game while players are warming up.

Hello Alexanda ,   ahhh  the art gallery , yes i guess i forgot to check every of them ;thank you :) i'll fix it soon. 

The speed yes i let all of them with the default speed except 2 i think ...i'll try to see if i can make it better.  i'm not against buying things for my game but depends on price..no idea if there is anything about npc walking ?

yes i know we can set route for npcs it's just i didn't do it  until now. i only did it for Yumi or others actors / bad guys.

will look into the ground tiles for the appartments if i can make something better.

I am not sure what to do about battles if it's not good..reduce the monsters on map ...or reducing all hps which mean changing physical/magic

attacks power. i need time to think about it and i wish someone else wold say something too to  have more than one point of vieuw.

 in your game i don't have any problems about battles either it's hard or easy   , probably because of my long  years of all kind of difficulty about battles in rpg's. there just the quest where we need to kill so many  bats that i have this feeling of not wanting to battle.

hey Alexanda :) i fixed the bug in art gallery and reduced some monsters HP after the abandonned temple(except bosses ) i put an arrow in the appartments hall to show where to go

did you went to the end of my update? what did you think about the story and bosses :)

Great stuff. I've played up to the part after going to the visiting the Inn. Your story is great, and the team members have their own abilities. Just keep having fun making the game and progressing your story. :) 

yeah i spend a lot of time making each members having their own skills ( except some skills that are used by two characters)  other characters for later in the story are made the same way,  a few skills will be in common by two people but other skills will be unique to them :) i sitll need to work on skills for later and skills for monsters too.  i'm glad you like the story so far :) thank you for feedbacks also :) i fixed the things you told me earlier and updated . about monsters hps i think it's better now? i changed most of the regular monsters hp that are after the abandonned temple ( except bosses ).  which Inn  you mean? in the first village?
