Hey guys, it's time for a little progress update and to reveal what I have been doing lately in regards to Lost Historia.

Progress has been very slow, but steady nonetheless. I have mapped the entire overworld on paper, and there may be some slight (or major) changes to the overworld teasers in which I showed. Now to do the bare bones of the overworld in ZQuest. Unfortunately, I have no motivation to do the overworld right now. As of late I have been focusing on interiors, mainly houses. I also did a very important screen today which is located in Hyrule Castle, a very small portion of this incarnation of Hyrule.

Who is this guy Link is meeting? He is Zelda's royal adviser. He has proven to be loyal and wise for seven years, effectively handling his role as second in command rather well. He will be the one to assign you on your quest, and filling you in on the details of what's currently happening. During this time of crisis with no memories or connections with the past, he has been gathering what little knowledge remains. He certainly has managed to recover a few things, which may save Hyrule. Another important cutscene late in the game will take place here, but that's for another time. I haven't decided on a name for this character yet, so no name reveal today. I was thinking of Sahasrahla but ultimately decided against it.

Hyrule Castle can be accessed right from the start, but some areas will be only available until later in the quest. You can find a few goods here, including the sword which will be given to you by Impa who is a guard captain this time around. I'm planning a sword minigame too, so there will be a lot to do here hopefully. I'm also been doing a little experimenting with interior tiles, which you may see in a later update and hopefully they won't be as lackluster as this one. Ah well, this is the first progress update, what did you expect?

Well that's all for now, have a good one! Oh, and this was featured On The Green! Yay for being On The Green. :P
 
Edit: Updated the screen.

Looks interesting! So you made the sprites for that guy yourself? I could never do something like that I'm a bad spriter.

Yeah, I am going to make him custom. Though I'll admit he has been giving me some grief as I am still trying to complete the set. I might need assistance to say the least.

What gives you that impression? :P
 
Also, I'm probably going to be redoing his sprite. Whether be simple edits or a completely new design, I don't know.

This is looking pretty fantastic so far. I like the idea of having quite a bit of stuff to do in the castle, it definitely feels different than the usual "go to castle -> get info -> leave", so that's a pretty nice plus.

I like the color tones and backgrounds , and the idea of the royal adviser is nice , he will assign you more than one task at a time ?

Thanks! Technically, you're going to the castle to get information, a sword and then leave, and come back another time for more progression. However, you have the freedom to explore most parts, and soon all of the castle itself.

I love the background Shane. Good luck on your quest.

Thank you, Yloh!

I'm glad you like it. Regarding being assigned to multiple tasks, he will only send you on one mission but it holds great importance.
