Shadow
 

I think the player sprites would look beter if the shadow circle were a bit transparent, right now looks like everyone is moon-walking.

Maybe even impliment a realistic shadow system where it's an oval that changes depending on time of day...

Yea they need to make a shadow system.... it wouldnt be that hard.... i even think you could do it with showimg's

i think i can fx this now

The only problem is that the people without lighting effects would see big black blobs.

Light effects can't do shadows. They can only lighten, never darken.
