Are there going to be any open areas for combat by any chance? It seems very corridor and tight right now from what I've seen. Not like that's a bad thing, but the fireballs seem like they'd be a nice projectile move to chunk around, but right now it just seems they'll be bouncing off the ceilings and walls.
Also when the fk do we get a demo?

Man I wish Time War had gotten this far in development.

Cool
Cool, cool, cool.
Looks good.
What's the window/render resolution for the entire game?

Lightning magic? Should totally do lightning magic.

@Eva Unit-01: Yea, the rainlands will be more open, my mind just thinks in corridors. Oh, and as for that demo...
@JuurianChi: 480x320
@Charlie Carlo: Hmm, electric attack? I would, but fire/ice/electricity would be too much like Metroid Prime's plasma beam / ice beam / wave beam

Not really. The plasma beam in the older games just added the ability to penetrate enemies, and in the newer ones it was a beam, not a fireball. And the wave beam has never been too electrical. Do something unique with each.

Are you still using Game Maker for this?

@Kamira: Hmmm... that's a good point...
@Rob: Yes.

Well it sure doesn't look like a Game Maker game any more...

Does that mean it's only for PC, or are you using GM Studio and are gonna port it?

I'd like to port it

But... lightning... :C

What the fuck does a GM game look like, Rob?

Because if you mean it looks too "professional", that's like saying a program doesn't look like C++ because it's not a hello world clone.
