No script progress yesterday, but sprites for 3 of 5 story characters in the first area are done or nearly done, and also, the first room is mostly done too!

In-game, the overworld/characters will be tinted a darker color, forgive the high contrast here

happy halloween

Overworld got a color upgrade! (hopefully this will be easier on the eyes)

Due to Gamejolt sucking really bad, I can't finish the upload of 5.04. I tried yesterday and today, and it still broken. This update fixes that new chaotic route bug introduced in 5.03.

Thanks!

Added settings menu!! And a new track called "Arrival" which will play when you first get in the overworld!

I think it sets the tone better than using the main track right away, instead that can play after a specific point.

EDIT: SPRITERS FOUND!

I've got the help I need -- at least for now -- to make the game's character sprites. Thanks to those who agreed to help!

pre-game menu! can set music, sound, and keybinds before you launch the game now.

I decided not to continue writing the script, as enough is written to do the rest on the fly. Instead, I've started on overworld stuff!

Here's a preview (ignore the bugged menu layering lol)

Also, notice how things synchronize with music?

Improved launcher menu, and a new custom cursor!

I won't be showing much past these first couple of rooms, but here's the finished decorations for room 2!

(floors got an upgrade as well)

2/30 rooms done!
