It's that time again where I post a Quest Project about a quest that barely lasts a month. Maybe posting a Quest Project will motivate me to finish it.
Anyway, this quest is about a young witch named Mana collecting golden fruit around the land of Valkyria to gain courage to enter the lair where a Patra resides. This Patra came from Hyrule and dumped a bunch of monsters into Valkyria because he was triggered about the defeat of Ganon, and decided to take his anger out on innocent people in a faraway land. Mana had just completed her witch training, and her first order of business is to save everyone from Patra because all the qualified people are either really old or really lazy.

This quest features some custom tiles, sprites, and palettes made by me. This is actually the origin of this quest - I was messing around in the editor, thought "this isn't too bad", and expanded on what I had to make something decent.

Got a few new screenshots here, dudes. Nothing special, but thought I should show off some stuff anyway.

Here's a beach that will probably have ruins on it.

While bland, this set of tiles took about an hour to make. For this specific cave section, I was going for a Cave of the Past vibe (from EarthBound), and hopefully you can all see it, too.

Anyway, that's about all the new stuff, but keep an eye out for more progress.

I think I get what's going on in that last screen, but the color ramps make it a bit unclear. Like usually in a case like this you'd use a regular dark to light or light to dark ramp of colors to show elevation, but here the middle elevation is the lightest of the bunch. And then there's those mountains off in the void which I can't exactly tell if they're supposed to be background or foreground...

You mean doing something like this?

I also added fog effects for more atmosphere.

Also those mountains are in the foreground, since you can interact with them.
