I started working on the tileset of the first gym. Before your first battle against the gym-leader you will be able to visit the arena and watch other trainers battle. Also there will be food and drinks :)

I also started working on the cutscene where you will meet the professor at the start of the game.

She will introduce you to the first 4 monsters, you will encounter in these lands and lets you pick one, to accompany you on your journey. She is totally into monster medicine and is also always happy for new collected data about them. 

Please give me some feedback :)
