Sorry, all; I promise I wasn't ignoring this thread, I've just been busy with my personal life that when I do find time to hop on the website, it's usually for staff duties.
That said, I also really haven't had time to work on this for awhile; busy at work and tired by the time I get home mostly, but also my workroom/office is a mess right now, and trying to map in RPG Maker while balancing a laptop on my lap and using the wrist rests as a mousepad isn't very conductive to a productive working session.
SO, about the game so far. I ended up realizing that the sprite template I was using didn't mesh well with the tilesets I had, so rather than go hunting for new tilesets, I ended up going with the default character template. I didn't want to do that, but it ended up being the best choice, as I was able to use Game Character Hub to help knock out the majority of NPC sprites.

Below are some of the early maps in the game:

I ended off working on Mercury's introduction; I have the first part of it complete, but her part is going to be monster heavy, so there's a lot of big maps. After Mercury, there'll be Jupiter's introduction, which involves Castle Io being taken over by deadly flora, and lastly Mars, which will have her stuck in the middle of a civil war.
