Only the towns are semi-side scroll, like in la pucelle
The rest of the world is still very much like the older stuff, lol. I'm still experimenting, so we'll see. But, regardless, I'm going to do it the way I prefer and enjoy the most :3 That most improve my art and stuff.
Doing a town completely from an overhead angle was going to take me like...well, who knows. I had like 15-20% done of one map and it was taking me over four days of solidly working on it, and that's not very efficient when I'm the only person working on this. xD And I don't want anyone else to do it with me, either. Personal charrenge.
I am still working on what sprite style I like the best, though. The tall one might prove to be too tall for the game's resolution D8 Plus I think I want them to "run" around instead of walk.
