I enjoy making small RPGs with my son. Existing tile-based RPG engines are missing a lot of the features we want, such as in-map battles and a built-in mobile platform UI. Thus, this project aims to glue together the pieces necessary to make a better 2D-tile-based game engine.

Proposed feature list:

Third party compatibility

• Support for a third party map editor: http://www.mapeditor.org/
• Support for third party sprite sheet animation: https://www.aseprite.org/

User interface

• Keyboard UI
• Touch UI

Battle system

• In-map battles
• Malay attacks
• Projectiles
• Guard/protect

Map system

• Character remains in center
• End-of-world methods: Solid, Textured, Wrap

Scene control

• Custom lighting
• Character speech- and thought-bubbles

Credits

• Example assets originated from here.
• The developers of Piston have done a lot of the groundwork for me.
