Hmm, initially you can choose how your stats are balanced (to an extent) and different monsters give some experience toward specific stats. For example, facing a Florita will give you a general experience and when you level up, your stats will increase according to how you have it balanced, but you will also get 2 experience points toward the health stat. Every 10 experience points gained will raise the stat by 1. I want to later add in different regions with different monsters so that you can become specialised by facing certain creatures.

Also, I realise now that it might make more sense if the "Mastery Experience" is gained by something like this: When you face a strong creature and you win, it should assumen you have developed your defensive ability, if you face a creature with high defense, you have developed your strength, and if you face a creature with high health or speed, your health and speed will increase. I should change how the mastery experience is given before the end of the contest XD

Yay, another update :3 The blacksmith now is completely functioning. Before she would tell you what materials were needed and how much it would cost you, (and if you didn't have enough of something, there was a line struck through it). However, there was no way to actually obtain the item. Now, the blacksmith will take the money and material, work on it, then when the item is done, you can pick it back up (different items will take a different amounts of time to make) Time is measured in steps, by the way, not by a clock. In the original version, I used the built in clock on the 84+, but I know now that the 83+/SE doesn't have a clock XD.

Anyways, when you get your first weapon or some other equipment, an option will be available at the stats screen to change your equipment. You will be told what stats are affected, if any (Gold Dagger, for example, increases your base magic strength by 10 points). Also, I know have the built in sprite editor so that users can edit their sprites from the Miscellaneous menu. Oh, and because there are now two 16x16 sprites being drawn, I got rid of the BASIC routine and I am now using a small assembly opcode. Needless to say, sprites are drawn much more quickly now XD

Now that I am using so many assembly routines, I won't feel so bad about using a List→String assembly program to make saving much faster. I won't have to fret about the speed anymore and I can focus on the storyline :3

I'm pretty sure that I am forgetting something, but I hope this is a solid update! Oh, the program is now getting close to 11000 bytes x.x On the plus side, I can't wait to abuse the assembly programs I have, now. I mean, I can now use the 16x16 sprite drawer to make tilemaps o.o I won't, though XD Maybe I will use it for spell animations.

Yeah, that is one of the things I have to fix. When I finished adding in the blacksmith, I forgot to set Str1 back to the player name.

In other news, I have tomorrow and the following two days where I either have finals or work, then I have until the 20th to finish this up XD I don't think it will be finished, but I'll still submit it.

This looks quite nice Xeda, especially for an hybrid BASIC program. I also like the sprites used in battles. :)

I already submitted it a few days ago (last Monday) :P I always forget about the run indicator >.> Still, that would have required another assembly program XD

I never posted my program download :( Of course it isn't finished, but in case people wanted to take it apart, here is the code I submitted for the contest.
