Battle music is active. Right now it is the Rawk Hawk boss music (Paper Mario 2)
Set up the state chart progression for the battle. It is also based on Paper Mario progression (thanks to the person [can't find the article again] who decoded it in Dolphin). PM uses a five-stage progression (opening, player, between, enemy, closing). I decided to expand and use a seven-stage (opening, pre-turn, player, between, post-turn, closing) for ease of cycling. To avoid duplicating stage events, post-turn is used solely to determine if any enemies are left so it can either cycle to a new turn or go into victory closing
Haven't decided what kind of stage events I want to happen. I think I might use more audience events instead, like throwing helpful items or maybe getting into fights depending on who is winning
In the opening, player and enemies walk onto the stage. Personally, I think it would be really cool if they bowed or made some kind of mutual gesture before attempting to murder each other, but that's a fluff thing at this point
Player attack menu appears when it is the player's turn and disappears when player turn is finished
I should probably really put some work into the followers before I get too much further into this. If anyone is interested, the first follower you pick up is a friendly attack dog

This game has gone through so many iterations it's not even funny anymore
Oh no! Jelly blobs of doom! 
They're only supposed to be the size of a mini-yux 
But doesn't he look so much more prepared for adventure?
And yes, she is carrying a deer foot staff, modeled after one hanging in our house
Working on battles. A little different than last time, aesthetically, but still the same basic idea
We have a question and we wanna know: What's the coolest easter egg you've ever seen in a game? Complete the quest and you'll get 100 Coins!
With exception of some minor odds and ends, the home interior sheet is finished, which means I can start on all the levels. The next house (level 9) is an old farmhouse, the kind that had a bazillion rooms
Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!
Doing some designing of the main village, mostly so I can get some connections in and get the next part of the opening cutscenes roughed in.
Ah, yes, Grandpa and Grandma's old farmhouse, with a million rooms, basement full of mason jars, and the old '57 Chevy in the garage 
I mean, not my Gramma and Grampa, but someone's, right?
This week's Fan Art Friday celebrates #CronosNewDawn

Battle State Machine is working Player chooses what to do, enemies choose what to do, and they even have variable rates of attack/defend/flee. Next step will be to actually start dealing damage
