Attacks are more animated now, though enemies are still static. Then again, even Final Fantasy 6 had static enemy sprites. Enemy sprites are just way larger now. There are five different types of attack animation, each based on the type of attack being used (sword, axe, staff, bow, or claw). Since there are more than just swords available now, it made sense to expand the animation types. Spells are particularly impressive this time though. Since Ryanna is the lead character in this game, much focus was placed on her particular gameplay facets, and since she is a magician, I wanted to make her magic really stand out this time.

2015 was a busy year and believe it or not, this is one of the first days I've had to even look at the forums.

Any new status updates on this? Also feel free to user my user name as an NPC if that's still a thing!

Just going slow is all. Frozen Utopia has stopped all development, but this game is an Eponasoft production and we're still plugging away in general. My priorities right now are Lucretia and Sydney Hunter, so this game remains a backseat production, as it has since its inception.

Added. :) As for new status updates... not many. The little amount of time I have had to work on this specific project has mainly been refining play mechanics. I am going to be doing a poll for this game sometime soon, as there's a few aspects I want some turbob scene opinion on, but I am not sure when that will happen.

Jossshhhhh...Legendary TurboTrollX-16: He revenge-bans PCE Developers/Ys IV Localizers from PCE Facebook groups and destroyed 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Josh and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner (extortion!), never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!

Don't think I heard of Sydney Hunter yet, will have to check it out.

I've never posted a thread about it but it's a Flash game from 2011 that is getting console conversions. So far, there are SNES and PCE conversions... I'm doing the PCE conversion.

I thought it was for SNES and NES only based on this: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/439982171/new-snes-game-sydney-hunter-and-the-caverns-of-dea?ref=discovery
Why the PCEngine version is not mentioned anywhere? Anyway, very good news! :)

From update #14 in your linked kickstarter: "Oh and we have recently found both TurboGrafx 16 and Sega Genesis/Sega CD programmers, so Sydney Hunter and the Caverns of Death will be ported to those platforms as well."

However, this is not a thread for this game in particular, so I will leave it at this. :D
