NEStalgia: Character Creation (Video)
It's been awhile since I've updated, but plenty of progress is happening behind the scenes. Up for demonstration today is character creation.
tenkuu has been invaluable in moving the game forward over the past couple months. I've been able to give him some basic outlines for things that are on the to-do list, and he's taken them and run with it. Thus what you see here with character creation is all tenkuu's work, and he did an amazing job!
Creating a character is incredibly simple and pretty self explanatory. You can customize the colors of your hair and clothing, and select between different hairstyles and body types. Each class has a different set of bodies and heads to choose from, not to mention both male and female variations.
For your viewing pleasure, I've recorded a quick video of the system in action:
I'm happy to answer any and all question, or even to take requests if there is a specific part of the game you want me to capture some video of.
More NEStalgia news to come soon!

Looks wonderful! Can't wait to play it, Mr. Silk~
Character Creation looks nice and easy, with a great amount of choice.
Small Question: Will there be class changing, as in, DQ3, or class promotion, like in Final Fantasy?

Oh you know, he could mean Guadia Quest in Retro Game Challenge. It was sure the first thing I thought of when I heard about this.
Also: Hi Silk, long-time-no-troll!

Yeah, but hopefully it won't look too bad. I went through and made sure that all of the options were somewhere on the in the same "complementary color" range and have matching white/black levels, so we'll see.

I know right? I think that the biggest slap in the face is that for all of the people who hate me on here, I can't find a single nemesis who'd even be able to properly grief a sixth grader.

It is inspired by classic NES RPGs, hence the title :)

There is no " original NEStalgia", you must be confused.

Lol, you probably never played it because Fabricmage hasn't released it.

It would be cool if the cursor changed to a hand pointing a finger during any sort of menu selection. In the letter selection menu specifically, have it push the letter "button" whenever you click it.
I think it would be an aesthetically pleasing touch to a theme which normally wouldn't support the use of a mouse.
