That's a really nice style. The import doesn't do it justice; you might consider adding an extra palette to your game in order to display it better.

Well, I downloaded the nightly, and that made it worse until I noticed that I should be using hero portrait instead of spritetype:portrait . The change in behavior is a little odd. Before, I could set hero portrait(0, X, spritetype:portrait) and get X back from get hero portrait(0, spritetype:portra...

Oh, that does seem likely, actually.

set hero picture(0, 1, spritetype:portrait) sets the hero's walkabout set to 1, and get hero picture(0, spritetype:portrait) returns the hero's walkabout set, at least as of Beelzebufo. Has this been fixed in the nightlies?

A hero's journey begins

Glib response: Use slices for this instead. Less glib response: What are NPCs 0 and 3? What's recoverHealth2? Would it make more sense to change the NPCs into empty hearts instead of destroying them? Actual response: You should really be using slices for UI/HUD elements. It's reasonably easy to do, ...

Framerate is a limiting factor in any time-sensitive game (that is, basically anything that's not an RPG or similarly menu-driven). It's a feature long past due, if you ask me.

I've only looked at it in passing, but my understanding is that it takes all words of a minimum length in a post and stuffs them in the database. The actual search is the reverse of that -- it checks the database for the words in your query. This is also why you can't search for exact phrases (e.g. ...

Never use the built-in search tool. I should really just 301 it to Google.

hero by rank should take 0-3 as an argument, not 1-4.

Aside: I'm surprised that set menu item caption(men1, get hero name(1, hero by rank(1))) works. Does get hero name return the string ID? If so, that's undocumented.

Player 3 - MogMoogle : The Noodle Within - A terrible crime rocks a small town and the cops seriously can't figure it out at all. When a mysterious stranger comes to town with a device that allows you to go up inside someone's mind, a rookie cop jumps at the chance to play the hero. Unfortunately h...

I disagree. The point of battles is to provide the danger of dying. Random battles accomplish this via attrition. I'm going to go out on a limb and take the few minutes of going through the wrongside as a test for the rest of the game... but I could just run away from every single random battle I g...

What's the cleanest, easiest way to do tile animation with more than five tiles/frames? Developer dudes, any chance of expanding the basic tile animation functions? If you dedicate an entire tileset, you can cycle through the whole tileset with just a "right 1, wait 1" animation. Super Pe...

You could leave shadow threads in the Game forum if you think it'll be an issue.
