Thanks a mondo lot, Donut brah! Means allot to me that you are so expectant. I only hope I don't fail to make it as fun as you hope it is man. Would hate to agg you out.

Aloha loyal, I hope still, fans. Big Z here wanting to let you know I fixed my aggro inducing problem of having the party's only skills either be tied to your phant or mixed in with it in a...yeargh messy way. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. Just added another page!  I'm dumb. Also will be trying to use the picture in battle doohikey to replace changing backgrounds for my boss HP bar and if I can run multiple pictures I just might, just might possibly think about making it for ALL encounters. No scan spell needed. But I am running like fifteen scripts in battle already, two of which are 100% necessary the rest are just me tinkering with stuff like finite bullet amounts for Chasity,  trick arrows and charging skills for Mercer. You know things like that.

...I didn't do alot for the story. I changed the funeral beginning up to make more sense though! Good right? 
I also realized I hate face sets in 2003. I want an alternative so bad! They limit my text to a gnarly short sentence, and my characters are chatterboxes. So suggestions welcome.

Oh finally I want to make my story less linear. Not like choice filled but some and my Arcana City fully explorable and quest filled with stuff. Imma try dat.

Wait...I'm forgetting something.  Damn I don't remember. Oh! I has no photobucket to display pictures. Suggestions please?

Congrats on realizing when you're stuck older Final Fantasy is always the answer  with RPG maker 2003. =P

Hey sometimes you need to take a break and let the game rest so that you can think of what to do next. Or I do anyway as that is how my best stuff is written/programmed usually. Organic periods of rest.  As for face sets your best bet is Portrait scripts or a CMS. No other options really that I know of. ^^;

Well if to go ahead! Just remember open world can present more challenges to your story.

I use Imgur now as it's free but it has no preview for sharing across sites.

Hello, mondo fans! It's me the Big Kahuna Z coming back to say "You wouldn't hit a guy with glasses right?" I think I need to overhaul this game again. I was looking at the gnarly original draft story and its just too all over the place and aggro inducing. I wanna try making a new one with fewer characters who and keep only the few who make sense. Hypothetically speaking that would not be so bad right? If you keep supporting me with your mondo ideas and stuff I'll make the game even better. Akaw! If not I accept being designated charade quimby. Tubular and glad you agree, brozillas!

Still here? Radical! So here's what I'm thinking: Imma make Zoltar in the game an amateur paranormal investigator. This just makes so much sense. He's gonna like stumble into Proud Mary and still be a mondo hodad in his family's eyes but not for like bogarting his pop's funeral. Just...no.

Still gonna use an AP system with little unlocking of skills. Tubular am I right? Phantasms still a thing but I'm gonna make a list of categories instead of them just being copes of Personas or stuff.

Alright said my peace now its time for me to skedaddle back to the ether. Peace dudes!

Well, it is your game, so you are free to do as you wish. I think it makes more sense to have the character Zolty be a ghost chaser rather than just some funeral wrecking jerk who crashes into an alley that happens to be filled with both ghosts and the main crash/tutorial princess gal.

However keep in mind sometimes the best games sound like mistakes on paper and make no sense. **Guy who literally gas made a discord for a game series with no games and still has fans almost two decades after promising them a series of games**

In fact after playing Deltarune I'm reminded that the best games are all a bit Lewis Caroll x FNAF. Mystery appeals greatly and misdirection is very in on the indie gaming front.

Either way I still want to play so good luck and don't broke what ain't fixed.

I support any direction towards the original! Also, you only have one project going on so revamp and put your effort into it to make it as tubular as possible.
