DAY 304 - February 16, 2012 - Added ledge grabbing.
- Worked on tower level.
- Figured how to make parallax backgrounds work with tile layers instead of the 7 built-in background layers, which opens the possibility for all sorts of awesome custom backgrounds.
- Fixed a few bugs with parallax breaking when switching rooms.

Ledge grabbing? Water arrows? Cool! ...Even though I have no idea what water arrows would do, other than cool any fire enemies down.
BTW, would you shooting those lantern-holding phantoms dowse out their lanterns? This could give some strategical shadow stealth action in some places, or just be interesting to see or give the enemy some behavior for if you do happen to dowse its lantern (running/going berserk are the standard two actions).

DAY 306 - February 18, 2012 - Remade the area from one of the early screenshots in it's actual place in the game world (for Anthony: it's on the top of Ragamuffin's tower).
 Here is the old version for comparison:  The new version has the platforms further apart because the window size has gotten bigger, and also ledge-grabbing makes you able to jump further. I've also made the ambient light more green. I think I like the new one much more overall. The main character has also been through two iterations and definitely looks better.

I think I do, too. I think it's because the old version felt 'darker' because the dark areas weren't green, and the close proximity makes it feel like there's more going on than there is. EDIT: Still looks cool, though.

Yeah, the old and new versions feel like very different moods.
They're both gorgeous though, just the grittier feel of the old version is.. special.

I like both, but I prefer the older. I like the grittiness.

As an actual set piece in a game, the new one is far better. But perhaps the lighting could be more towards orange?

Adding the rain in could help.

Your new art style definitely feels more whimsical and fantastic in comparison.
