Wow, that would have been a killer looking RPG on the GBC there Schu.  It's a shame though, the real GBC has this awful 10 8-pixel-wide sprite per horizontol line limit, that would glich that sequence of yours.

I don't really know how the GBC works but Star Ocean Blue Sphere seems to work fine like that :) Check it out here. Maybe it's just the magic of Enix...

That's pretty cool.  You'll note how the floor where they battle is one color.  They sneak either the player or enemy sprites (or both) in to the background, and use the odd sprite for overlapping the top or bottom.  It's quite clever. :D

The nice thing about people digging up old threads is that new posters like me get to see them.

Mods, have you ever thought about implementing a "greatest threads" section with older threads like this one? I'm sure there are a bunch of great old threads, but I can't browse through a year's worth of indexes to find them. And it probably wouldn't be too difficult to implement.

I suggested Ptoing once or twice making a "Best of the year" kind of thread with links to all the best/most interesting threads from each year. But the idea just slept there.
I guess with some elbow grease and help from some member suggestions it could work.

I don't know if there's any way I can help with that - but it's a feature I'd love to see, so if I can help at all, let me know.

Darn. I didn't think black was considered one of the colors.
