Hey Kitty!
Havn't seen you in a while.
This project looks really interesting, I especially like the deterioration system, It'll add an interesting twist in gameplay. and nice screenshots two, I really loved Akasha Seal and this looks like it will be alot better, if that's even possible. If you need a Musician, just PM Me,, I'd love to work on this with you.

I used Photoshop to make it, add and low opacity. ^^ And the brick road is in the tileset addons.
Serenade, I haven't used RMXP in several months. It's taking me some time to get used to mapping again.

How do you get a lensflare in photoshop on a transparent background? It doesn't want to do that for me. ><

First step, don't use lense flare. I actually painted the blurry lines and colored them in yellow and white. Create a new layer, then delete the Background layer. That'll give you a transparent backdrop (appears as a checkerbox backdrop).

The intent of the game is to raise questions about the way people live their lives, and if it is right to waste a life, even a short one. I hope that the concept behind the RPG does not offend anyone, as life-threatening diseases are extremely sensitive subjects, and even moreso to those who suffer from them, and the family members around them.
Why choose to simulate it when I could simply use it for a plot element? Well, I don't want it to just be a plot element. An ailment like this isn't just something somebody happens to have that bothers them, like acne. It's something that becomes a part of their life, and is a part that they're constantly struggling with. I don't think just "low vitality" is a good enough sign of Kayou's ailment... I want the player to have to keep on top of her health the same way the character has to, and at times, struggle like she has to.
Just saying "she's sick" seems like a pretty cheap way to handle it.

You are photoshop God if you can draw such straight lines with the brush tool. ':| I have hard times with the smallest lines.

Use shift.

Omg. I love you. I just found out that by clicking and then shift clicking somewhere else you draw a straight line. I knew shift could be used for drawing straight horizontal/vertical lines, but never knew it was that good!
Heh, I learn something new everyday. 0_o

Rye has made the sprites for Kayou, Sion, and Hild, so more screenies and progress will be coming soon! ^^
Sheesh...and yet another awesome concept which will more than likely lend itself to an awesome game.
I -love- the deteroation system you're going to impliment. But I have to wonder...how quickly will it deterioate? Will it be something like she loses health over time, or she loses her maximum health over time? Like instead of going...
1000/1000
900/100
800/100
etc...
will it go
1000/1000
900/900
800/800
in which case the medicines and herbs will stop or slow that progression? Either way...awesome story concept too. It's got me curious

Scriptkitty, Let me tell you, I adore your games and movies, I cannot wait for this, the idea of a dying character is SOO COOOL, and it can become a very moving , heart touching game.
good luck with it, and, well from what i;ve seen before, you don't need mhy luck, its bound to be good.

Sketch, her Maximum HP lowers with time. So, let's say her max hp is 150. Ten minutes later, no matter how much you heal her, it'll never go above 148hp. Nothing can slow or stop it; medicine only raises her MaxHP again to recover what was lost. So if she got medicine that raised her MaxHP by 5, then using it would raise her HP from 148/148 to 153/148. But every five minutes it will fall by another point.

Two new screenies have been added! Also, if you saw them earlier today (before this post), check them again, they've been significantly updated. Enjoy!
