So didn't have much time today so I just played around in RPGMaker MV. Ended up going the route of the Home Teleport which turned out to be a lot easier to implement then I thought so that's now a definite in the game.
Just need to decide now whether to disable it in Dungeon like areas or to leave it as a get out of jail free card. Regardless, it was pretty fun to make a spinny vortex and teleport.
