Ooh that looks even better now. I wonder if you could make the enemy flash like in the original (black layer xored) before he attacks so we know it's attacking?

Also I like the battle transition. I wonder if it would be possible in Axe to achieve the same as in the original? I have been wondering that too for xLIBC on the CSE because there seems to be no way it could be piossible on that calc lol if someone or myself did it.

I already suck at animations as it is
And getting the enemy to blink is no problem - i already programmed me a blinking function to let a certain area on the screen blink a certain amount of times

I read somewhere in the topic that you used to have an 8*9 Reuben sprite for the map. I can hack Axe's sprite routine in two seconds if you want so that you can use it because it looked better IMO.

The issue with the 8*9 sprites is the masking of the additional pixel layer, it'd slow down my moving engine too much

what i did was displaying an 8*8 sprite and drawing some lines

Do it anyways. I want to see this.

Would the extra routine require more code though? I think Sorunome is pretty limited in code space now.
