I have worked more on the NPC convos to make them more relevant to the game's setting, while also updating some of the city maps.

I also updated the first post of the topic with a description of the game and the story setting. I'll add the story later.

By the way, you learn most of the game's setting by talking to NPC's.

Update: Aside from the other NPC additions I did after updating to 0.7, I also made the game intro much harder (you will probably have to make the farther monsters follow you all the way back to the beginning without getting hit too much by the plant-like monster, so that they can let you pass, and one very hard enemy was added at the end of the road before the ground collapses under you.

Project update:
-Boss names are now shown in battle, when applicable.
-Boss 2 and optional boss were renamed from Tanorial and Tutorial to Loneliness and Anxiety

A long-standing bug causing the amount of gold obtained from kills to be incorrect most of the time is being fixed right now. Basically, under the old system, the amount of gold gained per kill was directly tied to the total amount of damage the enemy took before dying, rather than their max HP, resulting into an unintentional "bonus gold feature" that caused lots of problems when offensive items were used.

Some enemy gold amounts were adjusted after fixing the bug.

Also, all item shops are now called Cears (in reference to Sears).

Good news: Superstar Hero can now be completed from start to finish with no skipping! All areas and bosses have been programmed. I'll continue adding content, though.

Update:
-Some graphics were added or updated to blend better with the rest
-More shadow effects added (mainly on Quebec Bridge II)
-New enemy implemented
-Crystal Hill area completed
-Wind in Crystal Hill no longer pushes the hero to the right when walking and instead just slows down walking overall. This made collision detection impossible due to RPG Maker 2003 limitations, otherwise.
-Treasure chests were added to the game. All of them are locked and contains gold. They can only be opened with the governor house's key.

Superstar Hero is set to release on Steam on June 13th. The soundtrack is already available at https://djomnimaga.bandcamp.com/album/superstar-hero-the-original-soundtrack . The English version of the game is pretty much complete, while some text is missing in the French version (and will default to English accordingly). Here are the changes since the last news post:

-Fixed bug with Godess of Light pathfinding after talking to her for the first time (she didn't make it to the river anymore)

-You can no longer open the quit/language menu during an event such as riding Walrus Express
-You can no longer walk over thin air right next to diagonal cliffs facing Southeast/Southwest
-Applied some changes to Hooleigan cliffs layout to accomodate the aforementioned bug fix.
-It's now possible to save your game during the intro, right before the first monsters, so if you die you don't need to re-watch the entire intro again.

-There are now two ways to beat the game.
-Toned down the flashing screen when you die
-Your character now interacts with shadows, meaning that he also becomes darker while walking through a shadow.
