Description

Another visualizer for a Sonic RPG. Played a bit more with the layout this time - and decided against showing the characters backs, going for portraits instead. Figured these would be a little more appealing, and expressive. They could change to represent the character's status, whether they've been hit or even if they're just thinking about their next move.

Quite liking the idea of going with the Blue Sphere-inspired backgrounds for the battles - easy to palette swap for different environments and gives enough of a Sonic vibe without requiring too much effort to make different backgrounds for every hypothetical situation.

The actual status bars definitely need some work, but they're very much placeholders at the moment while I think of the best way to represent them in a more visual way. I'd probably represent health with a Ring counter, but still not sure how I'd represent the Action Points in a similarly graphic way...
