PROGRESS TRACKER ON TRELLO: https://trello.com/b/dOSdkq5z/the-kirby-rpg

A weird, mixed genre fanmade game... It's a side-scrolling RPG!

World-altering magics are causing wanton destruction and widespread confusion! Everything is turn based now...? To make matters worse, our pink hero is prevented from inhaling and copying Abilities at all!

Then one day, he was shown a particular mirror put back together after being smashed... Kirby saw himself reflected back at him in each shard his past and future in the form of Copy Abilities. And with it, Kirby is able to change ability at will.

Switch between unlocked Abilities on the go with the help of a curious ally and level them up! Recruit friends and foes alike to an enormous 50+ unit roster for the ultimate 5-man party! Fight your way through 8 nostalgic Levels with a familiar turn-by-turn CTB (or in this case, KTB, or Kirby Time Battle) system packed with occasional battle events, interesting enemies, and destructible objects!

As you play this game, you'll discover all sorts of silly gimmicks, cheesy dialogue and item flavour text, familiar stages and bosses, neat attack animations, playful jabs at classic RPG tropes, and all sorts of cool stuff! Oh, and did I mention cooking?

Nothing to really see right now. Mostly messing with menus and tweaking other stuff. Just letting y'all know I haven't gone anywhere except take a good, decent break.

Does anyone remember the boxes from Kirby Air Ride? I loved those things and decided to make them "enemies" in KRPG! They drop cool loot, but sometimes they are hard to crack! You don't need to "defeat" them to win a battle, though, they're just objects!

Switch Abilities mid-battle! Change the outcome!

Menu's design and appearance is still a work in progress, but everything works accordingly: you can switch Abilities as many times as you want--it won't use up a turn!

Changed Meta Knight's battle entry animation again as well as Bandana Dee's with game-boy09's Bandana Dee spriteset. Both are taking advantage of the new 16-frame anims as well as varying frame times.

Kirby and Dedede will soon receive similar treatment.

This is the planned Ability list. Exactly 24 of 'em, no more no less. Well, at least I hope it's not less! (For long-term KRPG fans, Ribbon Kirby & Archer Kirby were removed, but Taser Kirby and Cannoneer Kirby stayed, for instance.)

Possible Ability addition. Custom Bubble Kirby for KRPG--in KSSU style of course, with Fire Kirby just there for comparison. Trying to fit all the RPG "elements" and chose Bubble over Water Kirby to represent the water element.

Was given quick feedback on Meta Knight's animation. Increased all battle intro slides from 10 frames to 16 and added white smearing for the sword.

Thank you to those on /r/Kirby and my friends for amazing advice!

Characters have battle introductions now! I'm most fond of Dedede's and Meta Knight's. I think they're pretty in-character.
