Epic battlez RPG need helppzz
Alright, so I've been working many hours on this turn based battle RPG. My goal for it is to be a full game, and not just a battle "engine" like almost every turn based battle project in existence. I also want for it to show real stat increases and such like a real RPG. To capture normal RPG style, I also threw in a nice character creation page so that people can have a bit of customization to their characters. You can choose between 3 classes (thief, warrior, mage) and the gender of the character. Each class has a variety of attacks and spells to cast, which are all already decided.
Alright so what I need helpz with is a few ideas and such for the game, because it seems rather simple for what I want it to be. I need ideas on how to keep the player sitting and thinking on every move, or at least just keeping them from clicking their move in an instant. Perhaps something else to do like a multi-tasking minigame. I'm also curious to see what players want to see happen with these special moves and spells shown in the picture. Also, I'm definitely going to need a different name, so yeah, help me out with too?
I will credit everybody who I use the ideas from. Thanks 
EDIT: Btw, in case its difficult to read to skills because of image resizing, here they are:
For the mage, we have "Attack, firebolt, blizzard, defend, Thundara (lol, I know, I know), and Healing wave." For the thief we have "Attack, Pickpocket, Counterattack, dodge, dice strike, and lucky death." For the warrior, we have "Attack, strike, power jab, defend, cleave, multi-gouge."

Ah, I knew someone would ask about that. Honestly, this game is basically everything that game would be, only improved. Especially since the name itself was unfitting for "Fantasy battlez 'RPG'" as it wasnt really an RPG. This game is going to be much better than what that was turning out to be, plus I'm already farther into the making of it than I left off with the old one.

You should find or make better graphics.

Re: Epic battlez RPG need helppzz
@Common_sense It is my intention for the game to have a cartoon graphics style.
@DaGamez Your ideas are all good, but I was hoping for something more along the line of like a real RPG. Something with a full and fantasy sounding name without actually using the "RPG" or "Scratch" in the title.
Oh, and it should be out around June 10th. However my work ethic seems to slow when I get pretty far in creation, so I'm not certain.

Find someone to make it look good and cartoony, then.

@kiwi95 Thanks. I'm glad you think it looks good.
@Common_sense You best be trollin, boy.
@jzizzle Yeah, I was thinking about adding a currency and shop system, however I'm not sure how I'm going to distribute gold. At first, I was thinking that killing enemies to gain gold, but in the end, you have to defeat every enemy to win, so either way, you would get the same amount of gold. As for abilities, I really want to add more, but as it is, the amount of abilites there already are, will probably kill a few frames.
@masterhand7 I will consider your names, thanks

That's an epic line, boy.
I agree, boy.
Actually, you guys are right. This game wouldn''t warrant decent graphics.

Eh, sorry guys, its not going to be released for a while. I got banned, and I'm gonna have to postpone releasing it. However, it will be finished by the time I return.
In the meantime, I'll also be working on some other project. It may be a sequel to Dogi-morph. The world may never know.

Banned? When will you return, and how did you get banned? What did you do, and why did you do that?

I was banned because my brother drew a crude picture of the male reproductive organ and shared it. I contacted the scratch team, but they just said that I remain banned.
