Here is the new World Map. It is a lot more bigger than the first game and it will have more places to explore. (Click to enlarge)

Hackpick Minigame
Finally finished the new “Hackpick” minigame. Here is a little preview of the rules and some of the levels:
More More NPCs
More NPCs with the new background.
Just a heads up, we’ve changed the URL for our facebook page to ‘http://www.facebook.com/CrystalStoryGame’. We’ve also made the page focus on Crystal Story as a series, rather than just CSII specifically.
Floating Kingdom of Crystalia
I’ve been working on a lockpicking minigame for locked treasure chests. I hope its going to turn out to be fun…
Anyway here is The Floating Kingdom of Crystalia. It was where the Evil Witch Rita stole the Crystal from the first game. I don’t know yet if the name is going to be final.
Battle Theme
Battle Theme by Morgan King:
“This week we’ve got an update on the game’s soundtrack for you guys; it’s the main battle music from the game! This time around there’s going to be more than one battle theme, dependent on what area of the game you’re in. This is the first battle theme you’ll hear, and it’s a revamp of the battle theme from CSI (with tons of extra goodness added of course!)”
New Enemies
I’ve been working on enemies and enemy stats. I currently have about ~50 enemy stats filled. Which is about 2 out of the 6 arcs done. I’m still testing if the stats are balanced though. Here are some of the enemy sprites. I still have to draw about ~10 more monsters, ~6 more Bosses and a bunch of recolors.
Room Transitions
I have been working on an optional feature for the game. If it is turned on, the camera will follow the player around the dungeon. Took me a while to finish and it has still bugs in it. It is not final yet, but here is a preview:
More NPCs and Cutscenes
Ah! Busy week. I made some cutscenes for the early part of the game. Here are 3 more npcs and some screenshots of the cutscenes.
NPCs
I have been working on NPCs and background art. Here are some NPCs that are going to be in the game. Her name is Orcracle… like orc and oracle… hehe… okay its not that funny…
Character Animation
I have made improvements on the battle animation for each character. Each character now has 3 attack animations for added variety (though I’m currently not done with the 4th character yet. Scythe animation is hard -_-;). I’ve added more frames to the character too. Here is the comparison of the number of battle sprites in the first game:
I tried converting it to gif format.
