The arena scripting goes well

The arena scripting goes well. I really like the new GUI approach. It's pretty clear just how clunky the dialog-based method was. This morning I added tooltip text so you can tell what each of the buttons do. I fiddled more with some of the behind-the-scenes numbers, hopefully getting the proper balance right. I'm still trying to get the camera to switch to a good angle automatically for the fight, rather than having the player have to pan it around so it shows the action. Details, details.

The most fun aspect remaining is getting all the named opponent dialog written. There's lots of opportunities for the player to be rather silly about the whole thing.
