Constructed a mountain today, started doing some tileset work. I'll replace the grass tiles standing in for distant trees with actual proper little tree sprites later. This will do for now.
Am using RMXP, so there's bound to be lots of limitations and hurdles to cross. Even if I can't pull off a full game, making a regional map would be really fun. I like lots of opportunities to explore.
The design philosophy is while you -could- try to explore the mountain before getting a Pokemon, everyone will tell you not to and you'll get jumped by level 30 things that oneshot you, the player.
Also updated the town a bit - cut down on the fake houses just a tad and gave it a bit of breathing room.
To an anon who asked which tileset the square rock came from, it's from the Slowpoke well's exterior.
