Thank you again for your kind remarks=)

the pillars were made and renderd in Rhino3D,
the sprites were made and renderd in poser4,
items and character props were made in Rhino3D and or Bryce4

GUI graphics were made using Bryce4,Poser4,Rhino3D,PhotoShop6 and PicturePublisher8

the flames of the torches were added after using a program i made which lets you take an animated sprite and overlay it on another animated sprite and render frames of the result.

yeah, these are test graphics, for the tiles i used a program that i made which kinda bends the graphics to make them look iso,
i dont like it much, so i found some source code for ISOrotate and i will be modifying my program accordingly, i will also be using it to make the walls, and torches and such will be added in post render.

just to give you an idea of what to expect in the final game or demo, there will be tons of spells, i will be pushing heavily on spell eye candy *as much as can be done in 2d* using mainly
screen shakes, light area bursts and lots of fx sprites.

also unlike most realtime hack and slash games, this one will have a story lol.

i have taken a week of from developing the game, *ive been playing GTA vice city lol* but now im back on track, i will continue refining the menu system aswell as adding in-game options, *subtitles on/off*

this game is meant to be the first installment of a serries of games, based on the characters presented in the first one.

please give me more feedback, im so exited that you guys like it=)

P.S. I am willing to share the source code of my game engine, in return for other source code, at the moment im looking for some short, sweet, and lean MP3 encoder and decorder code.
(please no 3rd party compiled libraries or binaries)
*i am a strong beliver of re-inventing the wheel to make it to my taste*
*also please dont flame me about re-inventing the wheel =) *

let me know if anyone can help=)

IanK,

yeah not married, just a 20 year old programer who makes games during the weekend=D

RandomTask,
Personaly I dont support GPL, and as such I wouldnt want my
code to end up in a GPL product. Also I would need some sort of comensation for giving the knowledge of the inner workings of it since it did take a good amount of time and resources to build.

my screen names and emails are listed above, contact me if you want to talk more on the issue.
