Now that I'm settling in to my new place it's time to get back to work on Walthros.

Grape: Here's a work in progress for Grape, an important figure in the story who isn't playable this time around. He builds and maintains headquarters.

Blue Robot: First pass at one of the game's earliest enemies, a little robot who's been sleeping for a very long time.

Franz Sealbottom: Ghost's Towns and Fighto Fantasy both had extensive "comedian tells bad puns" scenes so obviously Walthros is going to have one too. Here we see Franz Sealbottom dressed for a show. Who is he underneath the mask? Is the mask alive?

Frog on the beach: I really need to work on tiles so here's a test of some beach/trees/frog.

Battle Test - Some unfinished graphics but I'm working on balancing the game's opening area. Here our two dudes fight the game's earliest enemy type.

He's become my default "I need a placeholder NPC here for some testing." He's my mood.

Here's a shot of a lab in bad shape.

Inspired by all of the stuff in this thread, I've added my own OHR splash screen to the opening credits scene.

When an important character is introduced, the colors fade and a brief blurb appears. Here's a blurb about a blob.

Streamlining the hero stats menu.

Here are some non-spoiler changes in New Walthros vs Walthros Classic:

-Bob no longer owns a house, has an apartment in Beta City

-Bob's role is focused on healing instead of healer/summoner

-Salom is recently divorced

-Walrusman is now a surname

-Dinosaur Super is female

-Amber, a new character, takes over Bob's summoner role

-Woo has arms and legs now

-Scottie is a gross CEO instead of a gross prince

-Bob's parents are still around

-None of the mice are playable characters but they're still part of the world

Finished setting up a character bio menu that will have a little bit of info about each of the game's important characters.

Work in Progress: It's the World Map! The hero graphic becomes smaller and cutesier when you go between the overworld and towns/dungeons.

This looks fantastic. Super cohesive between the overworld and normal map, and also just overall. All the art looks like it belongs together.

Like Kaiju Big Battel: Fighto Fantasy, Walthros: Renewal will feature a variety of difficulty levels that you can freely change as you play. Story Mode will restore your HP after each fight, while Fish Frenzy will make enemies much deadlier.
