the boss room, has the same thing on each side its.
the other cave map looks nice, i like your style.
for the shop, i would make it a bit smaller, right now it looks like a mansion.

[Calintz]

I agree with Sally on the shop.

Very nice! i love it! 
just 1 question, what are all them events at the center/ left part of the maps for?

[Calintz]

During Blake's walk through the woods, he activates a flashback.
Those are the events that appear during the flashback. It's not finished yet though. I have more to add yet.

ooh, alright. looks nice, where did you get that flashback picture? thing, the frame.

edit: oh! and some comments on your overall map,
the top right the bushes cover the water too much, i would show a bit more water, IMO.

[Calintz]

I created the Flashback frame, and I am thinking about remodeling it into a circle ...
Would you like a copy of it??

P.S. Thanks for the comment, but I like just showing a little bit =)

[Sally]

alright, it was just IMO.   yes i would like a copy of it, but the resolution is different in VX, if you could resize, it.      544 by 416

[Calintz]
