Slime Dungeon Update 7/17

So, the purple goo girl, it shall be a surprise what exactly she is and does. Maybe party member? Maybe final boss?

The blue bunny in the screenshot is NOT the actual final 4th party member, she's a placeholder to help me test 4 sprite configurations. The blue bunny sprite will probably just be an enemy.

The real 4th party member is quite 'missable' so maybe I'll allow the player to recruit some kind of slime friend in their place.

You can play around with horse and blue bunny goo in the cheats.

Goin to get some edits to give Horse a spell animation. Wanting to get the actual 4th party member drawn too. As well, there will finally be a male slime, kind of a big golem one I think.

Changelog

Shatter always inflicts Atk Down

Weapon effects are no longer inflicted if the attack misses. However, the chance to inflict scales with # of hits inflicted. So 1 hit, 25%, 2 hits, 50%, 4 hits, 100%.

Ally sprites now change position a little based on whether they're backline. You can now set whether you want to start the battle in the backline, use the Status menu.

"Saved" status now protects vs Burning/Bleeding. However, if you are suffering both or vored, you technically die twice/thrice, so no revive in that case.

Increased Cutpurse's gold reward, but can't be used on the same target twice. Also changed the formula in general to take into account all the enemy's stat values.

Spruced up the insufficient MP notices

When Rematched, Mimic now eats your item. Not only does it fail to work, but you lose stock.

You can now toggle whether to show Equipment and Items, Equipment only, or Items only. This will prevent unnecessary scrolling to use your goodies.

Increased the number of sprites preloaded, should prevent that first flicker when an animation plays for the first time.

A few tweaks to formation and backline settings, and now 4 characters shows up reasonably well. There are still issues with the amount of screen real estate left for the text at the bottom, so some scrolling required sometimes but y'know...

Kept chipping away at Horse (now named Claire) and the actual content of part 2. (edited)
