Uh... Perhaps I should have made this sooner.

I plan to make a very miniaturized version of well known strategy RPG games, such as Final Fantasy Tactics or Fire Emblem. In this game, you start with a small amount of troops and continually get into fights against various opponents. Your units can promote after surviving multiple fights, becoming stronger than before.

I got a movement script finished! I can also easily make maps because I have a completed map builder, though I haven't actually made any proper maps. I have a few sprites created, though I am not an artist so I don't plan on making any sprite animations. Here are a few examples:

I already have a general plan of what my game looks like and how it will flow. Hopefully things will work out smoothly.

Thanks for reading!

Mom said it was my turn on the magic tome

Next day, all character sprites have been finished. I need to get to making the attacking system for my game, as well as some UI components.

Still working on the combat system...

I also worked a little bit on implementing the class system as well as the UI. After all of that, I'm planning testing with some sample battles, then get to work on making a map and then work on large-scale character information storage.

After implementing the class system and having decent UI at the moment, I still haven't properly implemented moving or attacking, and I haven't worked on the turn-based part of this yet. Once moving and attacking are implemented, I'll finish on turn-based aspects, opponent AI, and end-of-game cutscenes/events.

This is going to be fun.

Also, attacks and heals can target anyone, friend or foe. I'm not sure why you would heal opponents, but since you have a limited amount of troops, you might want to "dispose of" the units you don't want.

I made AI. It's more A than I. I hate this so much

This looks so good! The mechanics already look really solid.

Sorry for the awful capture, but the AI is done! There's animations for when it's a character's turn, and there's also an indicator for your or opponent's upcoming turns. I've even dabbled a bit in making a save and load system. Now,  I'm working on making the game-over and win scenes, as well as making a system for the promotions of units and the hiring of new units.

This game is going to be much better than mine!

Don't worry, I know this isn't a contest. You're making something awesome here. I would download and play this.

It's done! You know promote units after they survive for 3 days and you hire a new unit every other day, assuming you don't hit the maximum of 7. Also started work on the main menu. Now I just need to make a few maps.

God I hate making maps.

This is probably gonna be a soundless game by the looks of progress and my work.

Four maps... It's all I can muster. After this is maybe attacking effects and finally playtesting. I'm gonna be real busy soon so, I better get to work.

Going through a few processes of playing and ensuring no bugs exist. Then I might be able to add some attacking effects. Hopefully this game can be really good.

AAAAAAAAAAAA

Attacking effects are being implemented, with sound and music following soon after (hopefully). TODAY IS THE DAY I CAN GIVE IT OUT TO PEOPLE FOR PLAYTESTING. Shouldn't have much bugs since I playtest it myself, but maybe others can find errors and bugs.

Well... Nevermind. Turns out implementing a guide is kinda hard, huh? Music and sound hopefully finishes tomorrow, when I can send it out for playtesting.
