Time for another update?

About time yes. Summer break has started! Woot!

Ok time for details (also can be read on the youtube video description now):

Additions:
  • Knight + Blue Chemist sprite
  • Basic job structure + data file
  • System for tile side textures
  • Extended sprite system to allow for easy addition of color variants (blue + green chemist for example)
Upcoming:
  • Finish job system
  • Possibly add animations for some of the actions
  • Add XP + JP gain on hits
  • Add saving system
  • Add character placement system pre-battle
An extra tidbit not in the youtube video description the program

Current program size:
  • exe: 325kb
  • images: 104kb
  • data files: 5.62kb
  • music: none yet, but ogg/mp3s will be 10 times larger than the freaking program...
As you can see, the program is relatively small. I hope to keep the download size under 1mb. Easy on bandwidth, quick for users to download, and overall simple to carry around.
