Updates (Feb. 21, 10):
Demo version 2.2 is up and running in the downloads. Here are the changes:
1) Made the "Bonehead" enemy move more spaces, as to make him easier to avoid
2) Fixed some movement bugs with some enemies. RMXP does this weird thing where if you have a scrolling map, any event with a singular, predefined movement would be placed on space off of where you placed the event in the editor.
4) Level 4 has been changed a little
5) 2 level transition maps have been added. Watch Tina as she moves between each level!
Check out some new screen shots, as well!
That's all for now.

Story:
Among the farthest reaches of the universe, there is a fairy-inhabited galaxy known as the Fairy Galaxy. Amongst this galaxy is a lush planet called Pix. The fairies that live there call themselves the Pixies, and they flutter about with their wings and enjoy a peaceful lifestyle. All of that is about to change.
One day, everything on planet pix seems to be like any other day, blissful and quiet. Suddenly, a dark haze envelopes the entire planet, blocking out the sun and covers the land with darkness. Several comets suddenly drop from this haze, and what comes out when they crash onto the ground? Freaks, and other hostile creatures. They attack the citizens and wreak havoc wherever they go, sending this once-peaceful world into a panic. Up in the dark sky, a cloaked figure gazes upon the mayhem and laughs. The Space Demon, Sir Grimm of Darkness, has arrived to conquer the planet.
Among the violence caused by the monsters, a small, green-haired fairy rushes to a shrine. She bows down and makes a wish to the stars, her message became a star and flew off into space. Somewhere among the Fairy Galaxy, a space ship hovers slowly, carrying a sleeping, white-haired fairy wearing pink boxing gloves and a star-symboled tank top. Suddenly, the ship sounds an alarm, awaking the fairy abruptly. The alarm has detected a wish to a Galaxy Warrior, and a planet is in deep trouble. This young warrior's name is Tinabom, and she sets her ship to warp speed to travel to the planet Pix. While this little fairy doesn't really know what she has to do yet, she has a feeling that she is about to do something big for her small size.
Cast:
Tinabom "Tina"
Species: Star Fairy
Tinabom, or "Tina" as the name she goes by, is a cheery fairy whose powers are derived from stars. She was born with the title of a Galaxy Warrior, a person who defends planets from higher entities such as demons, and spends her days traveling in her space ship. She is playful and kind-hearted, yet brash and naive. Tina is friendly to everyone, even her enemies in some cases.
Dori:
Species: Grass/Woodland Fairy
Dori is one of the many fairy denizens of planet Pix. While a sweetheart, she is terribly shy and doesn't like being approached by other people when she's not aware of it. She is a lonely fairy girl who wants to have a friend who will stick by her side, which is part of the reason why she wished for a hero to save the planet. Just as the wish was finished, however, she was captured by Sir Grimm and imprisoned in his dark haze. Dori waits for someone she can call a friend to save her.
Grimm:
Species: Space Demon
Bearing a wicked glare on his face, Sir Grimm finds nothing more interesting to do than to inspire fear in the hearts of people. He came from outer space to conquer the planet Pix and rid the universe of Galaxy Warriors. The main reason for this is that the fear and rage that lives inside people is what keeps him alive. Using the power to create monsters, Sir Grimm littered planet pix with hostile creatures to terrorize civilians.

Gameplay concept:
- The entire progression of this game is level-based. The goal of each level is to kill all of the monsters and move to the next.
- Before you try to kill these monsters, however, you need to collect items called "Sparkling Stars". At this point, any monster can touch you and you will loose lives, but if you collect all the sparkling stars in the level, you will become "Powered Up", and be able to turn the tables on those beasts by punching them.
- Once a monster is punched, they will be launched towards the direction the player is facing. Once that monster is defeated, a coin will appear, giving you points if you touch it.
- Every level (except the bonus and the boss level) has a timer. The amount of time depends on the level. The player must collect the stars and defeat the monster before this time runs out, otherwise the remaining monsters will transform into the "Perforato" enemy and will kill you.
- I'm planning for a total of 7 levels. One level, being the third, is a "bonus level". This level will be where the player can kill as many randomly appearing monsters as possible, to improve his/her score. That level ends when the timer reaches zero. The final level is the only boss level in the game, where you fight Sir Grimm himself.
