Making insides isn't quite as simple as that. I'd have to overhaul the entire "outside environment" framework to stop making the village "alive", along with a whole mess of other stuff (tools, sounds, etc.). I just didn't make the game with insides in mind, and it would take a lot of code (not save game space; I have enough of that left over) just to get it to work. The limit isn't 6000 lines, it's 9999. However, I still need to add 5 minigames as an arcade... that's going to take quite a bit. Plus, NPCs will take a lot of code too.

Adding extra bugs/fish would really just be a horror in the code. I just didn't make it easy to make new bugs/fish.... not to mention the entire spritesheet would have to be redrawn just to fit in those extra bugs. I'm really sorry, it's just not as easy at you might think. Plus, I didn't intend for this to be a game that you played for months on end; it's just a fun little thing to play for a short while.

As for contests; I'm not sure about those yet. I have to see how I'm going to implement NPCs first, and if I even have room after I make the arcade. I'm sorry.

There's a save and continue, if you want to use once in a while. I'm sorry, I just don't want to bug someone with a message. That'd be like saying "Hey, if you walk around with your shoes untied, you're going to trip". Everyone knows that, lol. I can't disable the select button either; that's just a part of Petit Computer.

Multiple people have told me they would not care for a resetti type thing in the game. Plus, in order to get it to work, the game would have to prompt you to save the file as soon as it loaded every single time. That's no fun.

I really wanted icons for items; but you can't draw custom sprites on the touch screen. There's really nothing I can do about that.

Other people have asked to make the mini-map bigger, however that would require that MANY items undergo a name shortening in order to fit the larger map. Since some things are already a bit cryptic, I don't want to make the names any shorter. Again, I'm sorry.

Oh, and I wouldn't worry about program space on your 3DS. You could store 50 Village-sized games on there, and probably still have space to spare. Trust me, you'll be fine lol.

Haha, partying... I haven't gone to a party in years. Thanks for the sentiment though!
