I'm going to say definitely application for reasons people have already said.

As for compression, what Liazon described is actually a system used in lots of games for NES, SNES, and the like (by the way Grendel and I met on a ROM hacking board

) called Multiple Tile Encoding (MTE). I'm going to suggest Huffman encoding for text compression and maybe some form of LZ compression for graphics.

On another note, I still have the source for the old intro and ending to the game (the one with just black and white graphics) which includes things like the custom font and displaying text as well as a simple character walking around demo. I'll find those and upload them to the SVN.

I actually based it on the Lunar Subterrane from Final Fantasy IV:

Hmm... Would someone be able to steal the black and white tiles/sprites? I am sure with the use of xlib, they could make a fantastic game out of them as well.

(And no, that person wouldn't be me. Pokemon consumes my soul.

I don't mind designing a tileset for you. I'm currently working on one for trevmeister, though.

I am considering moving this project in the staff project section, even though the two persons who started it aren't Omnimaga staff at all, since two of our staff (or more?) are currently helping on the coding and we don't have a featured RPG project section (anymore).

I was actually discussing that with Liazon earlier. I suggested we sort of "orphan" the project into his forum, since he's the main coder. I have no problems with this.

I will prbly move it now. You'll see a small arrow on the topic icon and it will redirect you to the moved topic under "Our Project"/Lost Legends

This project looks very promising. :thumbup:

My only dislike is that the maps seem to lead the player down a specified path.

if what you need to translate into english is just words, I think I can help you. I know a little Japaneese, and I have my trusty dictionary.
