having character art next to shopping menus is used ALOT, I got the idea to do it from Luminous Ark particularly though. Also, the art is rips from Bogi, that mmo, not mine.
anyways, yeah, the sprites do clash a bit with the rtp, but I'm going with all original character sprites, so I wanted them to have a little standing out, I don't use black outlines, but I do keep the arm outlines a dark brown, that way the characters are distinct from the maps.
plus, I just like how it gives off a more cell shaded, anime feel.
but I'm working on the menu atm, lol
The font I guess might be a personal taste, I liked it x.x
anyways, I'm going through the buy menu.

I've got all the displays working, I'm eventing the the buying process functions itself right now.
the top left shows how much of that item you own, the max in my game is 12 (not a epic game, 4 hours max)
The top right shows how much you want to buy, which changes with the left and right arrow keys, it resets itself when you change items using up and down to one.The number under that is the cost.
the eventing process wasn't as hard as I thought it would be, never done this before.
also, the shop keeper'll be the one to tell you the price in total you'll pay, or if you don't have enough money, or if you can't carry that many of that item, etc.
(5+9=14, more than 12)
