SAGE UPDATE 4

Heyyy, glad you're all liking the demo. Sorry about the difficulty though, I'll tone it down for next time.

 Anyway, this update is mainly to say this:

BACKGROUND SPRITING WORKSHOP IS TOMORROW

5-8 PM EST

Join this chatroom to participate when the time comes.

SAGE UPDATE 3 

People are asking me how to play as Chaos Zero, so I made a page detailing how to do so. Check it here.

Tikal & Chaos - Playing as Chaos Zero 

MINOR UPDATE: Made one for Tikal too.

Tikal & Chaos - Playing as Tikal

SAGE UPDATE 1 

Well, it's SAGE. And there's nothing here yet. The demo is almost complete, just have some finishing touches to put onto it. I'm not interested in just hashing it all together and throwing it out to fix it a billion times later, so just bear with me. I'm only a one-man army fighting in the name of Tikal after all. in the meantime, enjoy a nice video teaser of a stage in the demo!

Note: this is NOT the entire demo. When complete, it will contain the completed versions of Seraph Edge and Tiara Cascades. And perhaps, something else....

Also, if you're a sprite artist, then you won't want to miss the workshop I'll be doing on Thursday and Friday (5 PM to 8 PM EST). It's all about creating custom backgrounds completely from scratch. I will upload the examples and IRC logs after they're done so that you can check it out if you miss it, but the advantage to being there is that you get to ask questions, and I'll more than likely feel like answering them 8D

I'll write more about the workshop in the coming days, but my top priority right now is to get the demo out. If it doesn't come out Sunday, it'll definitely be Monday.
