This is going to sound rediculous, but I created an original CV character back in ~2003 for Castlevania Online named Sofia Renard.  For some reason, it bothers me a little bit that your character is named Sophia.  If I ever decide to do something with the Sofia character, it may get a bit confusing having two fan characters named Sophia/Sofia.  But, again, they're both fan characters, so it's not like I have a "legitimate" concern, but it does bother me for some reason.
Brotha not to give you grief or anything, this DOES sound rediculous. I know about your CV Online and I applaud your progress. Why are you even concerned about it dude? They aren't even spelled the same. Now if the character was designed similar enough to raise an eyebrow that's one thing..but to kinda say well I did my stuff back in 2003 so you can't use that name, well you kinda nailed it on the head with the rediculos thing. I wouldn't sweat it too much.

That's just the graphics, dude. Once it's done you'll be able to use it with minimal extra programing. My game, which is based on that engine, will have additional functionality like slopes, an simple menu, and common Simon moves from SCV4.
Remember, the quality of the graphics are irrelevant to the engine itself. It's still a 32-bit windows program under the hood.

Could you direct me to the download so I can try and use it? It'd probably help me out greatly if I could make this properly.

I wasn't implying plagiarism.  I think both characters existing in the fandom with similar first names might cause some confusion.  But maybe it isn't that big of a deal, I don't know.

I honestly don't think it'll be that big of a deal. Seriously, I didn't even know you had a character named so closely. Just, relax. I don't think there will be any confusion because their designs and back stories will be highly different. Not to mention I'm going with a stage my stage thing, with little bits of dialogue here and there.

If I can have it work in game maker, I'll add the stage select option for when you beat each stage, you can go back to them later if you wish.

There is no need to tell me to relax, I am perfectly relaxed.  I was more or less unsure how to feel about the name similarities, in the end.

You could avoid all the confusion and just change the name of your character to a cooler name...just a thought...

This is the engine TheoAegis is working on. It's a pretty early version and he's hard at work on the next version that is more fully featured. I'd probably just wait for the next one to come out, but this will give you an idea of what's to come.

They from the Lena sprites from Valis IV. I edited Lena to look like Deedlit from Record of Lodoss war. I simply changed the coloring, edited the boots a little, and while you can see em, I added elf ears, and I made the cape myself. I'm pretty happy with how the sprite came out.
