Update on progress -

This is shaping up to be beautiful, man.

Also, Darkman, I think he means the thing where you can change rooms without the camera following you through the door, and automatically encompassing the next room in horizontal/vertical scrolling as needed.

Perhaps it's just ol' Gunlord, but is it just me or does Shanoa's chest look a lil bigger? :3

[VladCT]

It's probably the shading.

Dominus Engine v0 51 - Order of Ecclesia Fusion 2.5

Finally, got a moment to game test your new engine. Super solid and everything was working, I was trying to break it pretty good, hitting buttons simultaneously, jumping through walls to check collisions, breaking the screen to screen etc.

Man, this is really impressive for what you have so far!

@Darkmanx and @Kokushibyō, I really appreciate the feedback! I notice you found one of my.. uh, "features" I accidentally left in the alpha demo I sent you (a debug WIP pause button)  . In addition, I've tweaked the gravity code a little bit and added a new animation so Shanoa's hair moves in the wind when performing a running jump.

Also, I have an update for you guys. Finally got decent progress on the start screen! Check it out below.

Hey, it has been a little while but I have a status update.

(click to show/hide)

New Additions:
*Adaptive screen mode. Player can now adjust the screen however they want and the game maintains its aspect ratio, making things generally more convenient. Still a work in progress.
*Custom controls are now saved and displayed on startup.
*Game now has a default control config for both keyboard and joystick (when plugged in). Controls can still be tweaked if the player wishes.
*Slide kick range extended to Order of Ecclesia levels. It's now more feasible to use to avoid enemies in combat.

I plan on releasing a new demo soon, so stay tuned for further updates!
