…The ability to upload MP3 files to my file manager.

64Digits has this neat Flash player now, and I'd love to use it rather than putting up my files for download. But I can't get the thing to work, since most file hosting sites I've seen use a YouTube style (some code instead of the direct file path) URL.

How can we solve this? Allow specific music file uploading to 64Digits. That'd be pretty sweet.

Now for some updates.

Everyone and their stuffed cat plays League of Legends.

On yet another note, what is with this Minecraft obsession? It looks like a horribly boring game except for the fact that it's multiplayer, and since I haven't played a multiplayer 64Digits game since Sapphire Tears, it's starting to sound pretty appealing about now. So convince me to drop some money on it.

Some Anime

And for a bit of randomness, I finished an interesting little anime called Shuffle! a couple weeks ago. I don't know why. Probably because my brother and his girlfriend said it was funny. And indeed it was. But also very naked. And that's no fun, because I couldn't watch it at work.

Schoolio

Terminys is on hold while I struggle with my classes. Getting into your major classes is a big step up in difficulty. I've got project management, discrete math (shh), intro to C++, and PC (hardware) fundamentals. It's not fun.

Big Long Section of Terminys Updates

As far as Terminys goes, I've taken all of the suggestions that the whole of two people gave me, and I'm changing up the combat system a bit. Here are the additions:

- Bosses will now have DBM-styled warnings (for those familiar with the WoW addon). This is basically a big alert that tells what the boss is about to do, and gives a brief hint as to how to pass it.

- Anyone who finishes the game will unlock Hero Mode, a much more difficult and expanded version of the original playthrough. Hero Mode incorporates new boss mechanics, more difficult enemies and puzzles, and some slight turns in the story.

- Passing Hero Mode will unlock the ability to play as five side characters in their stories that are relevant to the main plot.

- Clearing all of the side stories will unlock a Final Stage, which has you switch off between several playable characters (much like in Sonic Adventure 2), and lets you fight one final, extra, and difficult boss.

- The spell system is being revamped. Each levelup will allow you to enhance your spells, increasing their range and power, or decreasing their cost and cast time. Cesque made the point that some spells were very powerful but made you pay with the cast time.

And This is Where You Suggest Shit

I'd like the bosses to be the main feature of the combat. That would mean they'd need to be difficult. But difficult bosses tend to be annoying to attempt after a game over screen. Seeing as I'm already generous with the death system (allowing you to appear at the last save position without losing any progress you made from that point on), I wonder how bad it would be to make the bosses long and difficult (not tedious). Because of this, I may incorporate a mechanic as seen in Lufia: Curse of the Sinistrals, where you have the choice to level up your party on death.

I'd like to get some input on that. The only other things keeping me from making steady progress are level/tileset design, enemy design, and character design.

Note that design in this case means graphical shit. I may be able to make decent graphics now, but they don't come any faster.
