If you're not going to redo the sprite, don't redo the color. GO ALL THE WAY

Added the Ninja class ability (able to move after attacking, but may not initiate another attack). That's the last of them until I add more unit types. In related code, the Cleric can no longer initiate an attack. The Cleric already could not attack, but now Clerics can't start a battle, either. Thi...

srpgs are totally my life You are a man after my own heart. (Assuming you're a man.) Just be forewarned that Chapter 1 will not challenge you unless you try it on an Xtreme difficulty level. It's possible on any difficulty level, though, and still probably not too tough once you know what you're do...

You were already on the list!

Twins got me the rest of the chapter 1 graphics, so it's straight rock & roll from here on out.

I've written, I think, all of chapter 1's dialogue now. There's a lot left to plug in still, but at least it's ready. Additionally, all of chapter 1 is playable now, in theory. There are several cutscenes missing, so it wouldn't all make sense, but at least it's all there. 1-3 still needs a little s...

He's not using OHR.

That's true. I didn't do that, though.

The game is thoroughly musicked now (needs testing), and I have all the maps for chapter 1. I think I'm finished with 1-3.5, but I haven't finished patching up 1-3 yet, so that'll have to wait. I also have 1-4 and 1-6 complete in theory. Oh yes, everything's coming together now. The volume is incons...

She's seven months pregnant. I was referring to scripting the animations: each unit has an individual battle animation, and some have more than one. (The Bandit is a good example. You can see in the demo how he animates differently when acting as a support unit versus as a front line unit.) Very few...

Updates: 1-2.5 works like a charm; 1-3 is functional but reveals a lot of bugs in the AI. Aside from fixing those (some of which seem to be related to the exploit previously mentioned -- without a doubt, no one would stumble across them on a first playthrough, but they still need to be addressed), I...

Aloha from the beautiful garden island of Kaua`i! We flew here from Oahu this afternoon, and this is where we'll stay for the rest of our vacation. My wife is feeling pregnant right now, so while she sleeps, I'm working on Phantom Tactics. I choreographed 1-2.5 and I'm trying to test it now, but I d...

Oh man, if you make something like the "Tactical" mode on the original Star Control, I will love you from now until forever.

The current map function returns the current map number.

Everyone else is doing it! If you plan on posting often, then a new thread is the way to go. I find that keeping a running log of my progress is motivational, even when no one comments on it. (I'll split off the relevant posts if you'd like.) I am intrigued by the "lego ships." Will the pl...

I don't burn, I tan . My wife got Henry Hatsworth in The Puzzling Adventure , which is also great. Both of these games have surpassed my expectations, though I will admit to coming into VP:COTP with low expectations. Instead, I'm going to go ahead and say it's the best strategy game on the DS. Reall...
