I should probably rename the spell to something that fits the spell looking like a lava pool.  And Sandsea never looked better after my background.
 
 
 
 
Misplaced weapons is still a huge issue.  Nobody uses a bow like that.
 
 
 
 
Cave/Underground tiles.

				...I just don't understand you at all, Newbie. You can pixelate perfect character sprites, magnificent fire effects, and maptiles that are incredibly easy on the eye...And yet you can't create a decent backdrop?
 
 
I mean, Geez! If you really have to, just make a battle backdrop out of maptiles, maybe with a 45º horizontal skew.
 
 
Except for the backdrop, I'm really enjoying what I see. Keep up the good non-backdrop work. |

That's why you get a $10 USB-port laser mouse.
 
 
Well, it's great to know that the screenshots will only get better. |

				Your sprites are wonderful as usual, but they look all LONELY on that big, blank backdrop.  Same with the cave map.  Add some details and you'll be set. _________________ UP DOWN UP DOWN LEFT LEFT RIGHT RIGHT A B START |

				Updated my background, but it is very blurry so I may have to approach this a different direction:

The string on a bow should never be slack like that. _________________

				Fixed.  The bow doesn't slack any longer.
 
 
I need to hop on Bugzilla to see if the weapon placement bug is being worked on. |

				| I already know it's being worked on.  I let Mike have a copy of my game to use as a test case. |
