Ooh, I'll be looking forward to that ;)

Btw, how are you doing with space in the app? I'm cutting it very,very close with Ash and I was wondering how you're dealing with it :P

Well, my menus are about 9500 or so bytes, but a good chunk of that is subroutines the whole game will use. Currently, my compilation of the walking engines and title screen is about 10000 bytes, but I can shave off about 3500-4000 bytes when I move the title screen pics and test map to external appvars. Then it's just optimizing.
But I'll probably be cutting it very close as well.

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

I'm hoping for a Christmas release at the latest, but I can't set a date yet.

I'm working on NPCs right now.
That would be cool :D

Good luck with NPCs and fitting the entire code into the app page.

I forgot to mention that the possible Christmas release I mentioned would be a beta release. Just wanted to clarify that.
I'm optimizing the walking engine right now, and will probably have to post it for help, since I want to get the most optimization it's possible to get out of it. I need all the space I can get...

Sounds good. We could probably learn stuff from each others engines, even though they use completely different storage methods.
I'm working on fixing a little bug in mine right now, though. It's just an offset problem, nothing crashy, thankfully.

For those of you wondering why my menu is so large, you can see for yourself.

Oh I know how large those can get, sometimes there are just so many options that it's impossible to keep them small. ROL4 had a job system like in Final Fantasy III and V and you could equip abilities and it had to check who can use what spells in the menu. It also had to change your max HP and other stats X.x

I'll check, though :D

EDIT: Could you post a screenshot since it needs the pics? ???
