Ooh, looks nice with no grid :) though with the map style I'm going at, the In game map should have the grid ( it has all unexplored areas as black until you visit them)

imo, I think it would look cool if there were no lines and unexplored areas were black

I wonder if I'll have enough space for an ingame map in A:P....

Ah I see, seems quite cool actually. I think it's best that the areas you didn't explore remains black, unless maybe if you find a radar or something like the maps in Zelda dungeons. :D

Maybe have the grid so it blinks? (Although it might look bad)

Squidget I hope you start working on AP again. It would suck to see the project die. D:

If I go with no grid, I'm gonna need to touch up some areas in the death mountain area, and add borders between water and grass in the highlands... But if you guys think it'll look better, its worth it :)

Ah ok. personally, though, if you go with black squares for unvisited areas you should keep the grid, though.

You think so?  I guess I'll have to keep the black grid then x.x sorry for any disappointment.

Hmm, I started coding the map to show dark areas based on a bit array in the save file.  Fortunately, it's only around 40 bytes total.

Wow. The ASM is way over my head, but nice job for sure!

Thanks c.sprinkle :)

Yeah, the asm is somewhat hard for me, but after so much axe I totally get 98% of what's happening.  Makes me look back on my 200 byte sprite drawing routine I made last year in shame XD

I just figured out how easy it would be to code in things like arrows, bombs, hookshots, flippers, and a few more items normal found in dungeons -- so, now that I can spare space, why shouldn't I use them?  :D

I'll see what things would fir the world best -- any item ideas?.  I'll take about 7 ideas, for the 7 items.

That would actually be a good one for the graveyard level ;) instead of a bow, a cross bone shooting the bones of evil skeletons you slay :D

Something that lets you jump further - Spring Boots maybe. ???

That's a good one too -- but you cant jump in the first place.  However, these can make it so you CAN jump :)

Good idea ;)

Thanks for all support so far everyone :). I've seen at least 10 people wearing the support userbar in their signatures, and this very thread now gets around 100 views a day, even during days with no posts :). Thanks again for all those who want to see this awesome game come to fruition, you're just as awesome :)

I unfortunately did not get much done the past few days -- but I did finish around 30 more indoor tiles.  Programming wise, its in real shambles, 1% done at most.  But, I think it'll be 2-3 more weeks before I get into coding mode -- I want all the graphics done first.  So, small update I guess :)
