Squire Devlog part 2
Chimmy: Being a knight means you have to protect people. The people of Albenset, it is your responsibility to protect them. Can you feel it? The gratitude towards them?
Gained the ability Protect!

Looking how to make Blight state stacking. A plugin someone made can make “worsening poison” that gets worse when the victim is damaged. As it stands RPG maker does not let you stack a buff.
I wanted it to be Each hit that applies Blight of 1% maximum health reduction, but I settle for %1 percent health reduction, going away after 99 steps

Learned the importance of naming switches
Buffed Magician
Buffed Flower Sister
Made cutscene
Released as .zip file on google drive
Made credits scene after Dragon quest so now I am thinking of how to make it even longer and better. Perhaps a new area opens up such as some hills move to reveal a new path.
There could be an expedition that takes you to a new area or they could go to the Island of 1000 traps
Identify where monster encounters need to be fine tuned, i.e lower encounter rate near start screen, or make certain parts harder.
Changed paralysis so that is lasts 50-100 turns and wears off after 100 steps instead of after battle.
Dispel Herb now also removes Blight and Burn
Realm Builder adaptation that takes notes from final fantasy tactics. Most action occurs in the overworld.
In this version you would want a hand screen or hotkey bar at the bottom, so that you don't have to open up menu then hand every time.
Special ability Extended duel: enters battle screen and you can keep attacking. Perhaps warrior or knight uses this?
What about a version where instead of visible slots the cards just appear at the bottom and can be pressed with number keys?

Fixed problem that kept players from leaving the castle: a wall tile that looks identical to a floor tile, 4 gold squares, was used as the exit. This could be used for an annoying puzzle where the player has to walk around through identical
