A very promising TI-83+/SE graphical RPG from Epic Programming Studio. It features awesome graphics and will probably rival ROL3 in gameplay. Let's hope it will be finished!

Hello, I'm the author of Aura. Unfortunately work on Aura won't seriously progress until I have completed Ender's Game.

So, can you change the status to active? Aura is once more being worked on. I'm completely rewriting the engine for Xlib, so far I've got the character to walk around the map (no collision detection yet) with scrolling similar to that seen in cryzrbl's Zelda: ROTP. currently implementing grayscale for the character sprite (everything else is b+w), since there were complaints before of having the character sprite hard to tell from the background, however I need some opinions on this. It seems to run rather slowly on my 83+ with the greyscale, so I'm considering only enabling greyscale for 84/83 SE users. What do you guys think?

sounds cool!  since your using xLib, i got one suggestion.  make all parts of the map that you dont want your guy to go over have a .1 after it.  its a reliable collision detection method.  after i finish zelda, i might do a xLib tutorial on all of the xLib secrets :thumb:google.gif

ooh nice, I am gonna change the project status, actually I think greyscale should be only enabled to SE users, so on the SE it will run fast enough and not too fast either.  :thumb:google.gif  Does sprite masking (chatacter going behing walls and trees) works yet?

No not yet, I'm having trouble with collision detection, and I'm considering falling back to the old collision detection method.

I think using strings isnt a good idea (altough its smaller), because its wicked slow, lists are fine, or maybe a small matrice (Actually a 6 number long list is only twice bigger)

Yeah, lists aren't bad in size (for this application), and it's far faster than strings. I've got collision detection up (though I'm still working on more optimizations) and the overhead masking.
