What's New - 3/31/2018

* The wooden signposts found  in some areas will now display a full graphic instead of a text box:



This will eventually extend to all sign-posts throughout the game instead of just those inside towns.

* As an add-on to the above, some towns will now have businesses that will "hire" Ami's party for a short period. This is intended as a way for the player to instantly get small amounts of money, reducing the need to grind or sell items. At present, the "job" is essentially a short cut-scene with a set amount of money given afterwards. In the future, it may change to a system where the amount of money given depends on player actions.

What's New - 3/18/2018

* A new dungeon, the Desert Ruins, has been added. Originally, it was going to be a mini-game, but ended up being an optional dungeon instead (similar to the Purple Maze which was originally going to be a dungeon but ended up a mini-game). Access to the Teleporter is only available after the party solves a puzzle that requires they activate four color-coded switches in the order that their colors appear in a rainbow.


Instead of making 6 or 7 entirely new maps, I decided to make one enormous one and give each of the "floors" it's own space.



This dungeon is unique in that only one party member can enter.
