NPC's Can Talk!

Recently I have been working on the NPC's that you will be able to chat with.  Today I wrote an NPC chat engine that allows complex conversations that can let the NPC ramble on for several text boxes worth of information or allow the user to select from up to four responses to reply to the NPC.  The system allows for a wide variation of conversation styles and will make the Town far more interesting in the future.  These NPC's will offer everything from advice to sidequests or they might just want to say hello.  This is also a major leap towards the store, which will be my next project.

An NPC that you can respond to.

An NPC with a full wall of text (this also serves as a demo for the font).

As you may notice, I am just using the Fire Mage image for this demo.  I will be talking with my artists about drawing different characters in an art style that can match the Mage.
