My first SFML game

I present you: Dreaming Warrior!
Its tile based RPG. Posted it on sfml forums, but since there was no feedback at all :( (which I really was hoping to get) I guess I'll post here as well.

link: https://github.com/krofna/Dreaming-Warrior
In downloads tab you can find executables.

Some basic 'how to play':
Navigate character using arrows and collide with NPCs to interact with them. First two guys you will see on 'spawn' spot are quest giver and vendor. Always take quests, else you will stuck. Be wary of 'random encounters' (you can get attacked even if you don't interact with enemies). C button goes to character screen, S button saves the game. Move to edge of map to relocate to adjacent map. All humans are friendly, rest are unfriendly (orcs, dragons).

Game is ultra hard with mage, and not tested with warrior (should be even harder)

Opinions?
That looks pretty damn awesome from the screenshots. I look forward to testing it, probably somewhere this weekend!
By the way, I like the artwork. Did you do it all by yourself?

32x32 Tiles are from one very old game, TomeTik: http://pousse.rapiere.free.fr/tome/

And all the "large" images (such as creatures and GUI) are done by amazing artist, my sister :)

I'm glad you liked it :)

Aargh backslashes in paths

I don't understand. How are backslashes evil?

¿what language is it?

Not sure what do you mean. Game is obviously written in C++.

Backslashes in file paths are windows only.

Because I need forward slashes. (probably your OS does support forward slashes too)
I meant the language of comments and commits.
yes, you should prefer forward slash to back slash.

Forward slash works everywhere.
Back slash only works on windows and is more error prone because it's the escape character.

Not bad, I really like the art style!
Did you draw it yourself?

As for the game, I think you encounter dragons waaaay too often. Most of the times it's after 1-2 steps already!

About art.. Read above.

The dragon encounters are limited. When you kill all of them (19 on first map) its clear for good. But yeah, I guess I'll reduce it to 10%

Thanks for feedback :D
