Here are some sketches of some of the first things to appear in the game. The background will be used in the first battle of the game which will be between the hero with a couple of gaurds, verus a few imps. The gaurd and imp are also show in the sketches.
In case you missed the worklog entries, Solmyr posted some new screenshots from his project “Spark”.

Here’s one more image showing the two gaurds that are part of the three man team you control in the first battle. Not pictured is the hero.

Some early screen shots. I’m working on character graphics now, 2D pixel art.
Just a quick update today. Things are progressing well, and it’s starting to look more like a game now than just a lot of parts stuck together. There’s still a lot more to do, but it’s getting there.
Anyway, here’s a quick screen of how it looks so far:

So far there’s a scrolling map with front and back layers, transparency and full collision detection. Nothing too amazing, but it works, and that’s the main thing at the moment.
The next step is getting some proper animation going, and then maybe some menus and things to investigate.
