Oh, did I mention the RPG is in screen1? That's why it scrolls so fast...  |

for a 256K Kanji font ROM and 32 bytes (16*16) per character it would be 8192 characters, but since there are 8*16 characters as well (16 bytes) my guess it would be somewhere between 9000 and 10000 characters. This includes our alphabet, greek, math signs, katakana, hiragana, kanji, and I think a few others as well.

The babelfish translation sucks ^^;
The trick is that the verb 'rondwaren' (to wander round) is split (because of dutch grammar) which allows the 'waren' part of the verb to be interpreted as the past tense plural of "to be", and the 'rond' part as an adjective.
The best translation I can think of is 'Why do ghosts always wander round and never square?'
Obviously that's not half as funny as the dutch sentence that can ALSO mean "Why were ghosts always round and never square?", which makes even less sense in english  |

some new gfx.... Added some trees and a player sprite...
Why I do this? First off, just for myself to find out if it is possible to draw a nice looking RPG on the MSX, taken another approach than PA3 i.e.
Second off all.... for the fun of it
Comments are welcome... |

The tree looks very nice !..
..but in the whole picture I miss the contrast between the tree and the grass.. it all looks as 'one green image' now.. I think it can be solved quite easily by making the grass 'smaller' .. not the details you have now.. but more using noisy pixels (the traditional way) .. and prolly avoiding that light-green color in the grass also might help.
but hey: it's only my $0.02 |

Thanks :-) Now, the traditional way is the thing I want to avoid... If only screen 5 had some more colors I could solve it easily by using a diffirent kind of green for grass and trees...
