Huh impressive. The only thing I think you can improve about your game is the mugs.

Ok… The world map is gorgeous, the battle theme is eargasming, and Ruby (WIP) and Yang’s animations are awesome!! Man, this is looking soooooo cool so far! :smiley:
Indeed inspiring!

P.S. How in the world did you insert that CG with Nora in FE8?

Waaaaaaaaaah this is coming along nicely!!! Can’t wait to play the newest patch! :smiley:
The fact that it runs on FE8 is really inspiring too!

Moreover, volume 3 is amazing so far. They’ve improved the animations SO much, nnngh.

Ok, I know I sound like a fanboy, but I really like RWBY. And those mugs of the evil guys could be polished a bit, but they’re pretty impressive. They resemble them A LOT. (way more accurate than Weiss for example :0)

Loving it so far! Keep it up! -damn snowy maps, I want 'em too-

Episode 3 was pretty sweet! Plot progression is coming and my ‘educated guess’ for Winter’s role/personality seems to be confirmed. Now I just have to somehow slot Qrow into the story.

and who knew there was so much overlap between RWBY and Fire Emblem fans?

Your hack got me into RWBY. Thanks for that, can’t wait to see what else you have planned.

Also WIP for Ozpin

and Qrow

Gameplay question: what do you think of keeping a “Leeroy Jenkins” NPC alive - but if you try to rescue him, he unrescues himself before charging back in on NPC phase?
I got the mechanics of it more or less working, but I’m wondering if it might be too annoying.

Not gonna lie, I preferred the original spliced mugs to these. The faces are smushed together.

I do like Weiss somewhat. She could be a lot better with some touchups, but the rest need some heavy quality control.

Edit: Oh holy shit, Qrow, how did I miss that? That is a solid mug.

I think more context would be helpful in answering your question. you can PM me if you like

Maybe it’s because they have RWBY proportions rather than FE proportions? Or maybe I just suck at 3/4 angle.
Still, most of the old versions were more like edits than splices. Splicing would imply that I used more than 1 sprite as a base.

@ghast Basically I have an early game Defend Throne map, and as a side objective you have to keep the NPC alive to recruit him. I want the player to hate him, so he’s trying to suicide on the enemy while also stealing exp. The player should have 2 cavs and a peg, so rescue chaining shouldn’t be a problem as long as you don’t mind tying up 1-2 of your mounted units every turn.

I’m with @Klokinator here; the sprites just need a lot of clean up. They have a clumpy look to them and are messy in the face. They all seem like WIPS. Its not the style that’s giving you the issues, its the attempts at full customing.

Qrow and Weiss are your best in that post though.

chapter goal sounds… interesting I guess hahaha. Sounds like a wild goose chase

Clumpy and messy are fine, just takes time to clean up. I spent more time on Qrow and Weiss, therefore they look better. But if the facial proportions are off I want to know before I polish.

I think for the most part everyone’s heads look fairly small. Qrow looks great and so does Weiss. Oxpin sprite is at a strange angle.

Been a while, huh. Actual Game Progress is on hold while Volume 3 is airing, because I’m probably going to have to rewrite based on the new plot/backstory that’s coming out.

Meantime, sprites are better than nothing
