Screenshots tomorrow, friends!  I just got back from Hawaii about an hour ago.
Additionally, three days ago, I lost everything I had worked on for Edge.  I have since recovered around 3/4 of it.
Also, as for the intro, the farewell is going through some serious changes.  There is some things I wanted to convey that are hard with text.
As for XCOPY, I will probably be forced to use it :(

Ouch, what happened? Did your batteries die or something? This happened to Meishe91 yesterday. The low batt msg showed up for like 5 seconds x.x

I'm glad you are back, I hope they let you get on a bit at least (and that your projects will remain intact). I'm glad this is still progressing, though. As for XCOPY, it might be a good idea if you want automatic chapter switching or to fit the game in one chapter while still being big. It will still show what BASIC can do in terms of RPG and the like with minimal ASM libs. Can't wait for screenshots

I'm still not sure what happened, but the whole thing was deleted.  I had a backup and everything.

Glad you're back and can't wait to see these screenshots! I'm sorry to hear about the memory wipe though, that sucks but glad you had a back up and have almost all you had back.

By the way, what does XCOPY do exactly?

XCOPY allows you to copy archived programs into RAM. Illusiat 13 defunct RPG project uses it, since the game won't fit in RAM.

Welcome back, SirCmpwn. Too bad for the data loss... :(
On the other hand, can't wait for screenshots! Keep up the good work! :)

Too bad Sir, but at least you've recovered most of it.  This sounds like a cool game!  I can't wait to see what it looks like. :)  Good luck Sir! ;D

Screenshots!
The first one is of the main game engine, the walking and talking and such.  It shows off the tilemapper and the dialogs.
The second one is the battle engine.  It has enemy sprites and names, as well as an HP gauge, and the player has an HP, and MP gauge with numerical representations as well.  The menu you see there is dynamically generated at runtime and can have either enabled or disabled items (notice the change in cursor), and can show mana costs for each item as well.
Nothing you see here uses pictures, excepting the tilemapper, which stores the result of its efforts in Pic1 so that it can be redrawn quickly after battles and dialogs.

The version before all this was deleted included 20 spells, animations for each of them, and a more extensive enemy roster.  I will be adding all of this again in the near future.

Thanks!
In other news, I got my calculator restored and I am now working on my new Axe entry, since Advance Wars was destroyed and I don't have time to finish it before the competition.  Let's just say that my new entry will really show off what Axe is capable of :).

A hint is that it will be in the form of an application.

Looks cool Sir! The speed is definitely awful, like you said, but the quality is very good.
Keep up the good work! :)
