I do like the new menu, and I like how the items are inverted. The menu is looking good, I have not played many "rpgs" so a large menu is something more than my knowledge ;)
It's inverted if it's equiped.The next hurdle is how should I display the power of the items?

I mean, if I go right below a shop or a character, or right above him, I am unable to trigger a convo/talk to them, it only works when I stand left or right. If you check in the screenshot I try to press the action key below and above these and it does nothing. I most rpgs you can talk to NPCs from any direction, or from the bottom

This looks promising. Can't wait to see more work on it. I'll give it a shot sometime soon and give you some suggestions.

So I've written a scrolling engine and now I'm trying to think of what to do with it any ideas?

if you ever turn your RPG into a full one with storyline and all, not just arena-based, couldn't you use it for overworld movement and have battles in one single screen with no scrolling?

You know what I think I'm gonna use that suggestion and re-write the engine to have battles in the map still no plot though.

No I would use your suggestion to scroll and then go to separate screen to battle.

Yeah I think that's a good idea. Scrolling battles would definitely be too slow, but I like the idea of scrolling world, and then non-scrolling battles.

I need some ideas on how to deal with the battle system should battles be triggered by random or should you see if a battles about to occur?
