Yeah, so we're still around. We got kind of burned out there for a little while, I guess, but we're back at it now. Lots of new stuff has been added. Wayne did a TON of work on the map editor so we have a new map in the game now. Yay! Not that you saw the old one, but trust me, it is an improvement. He got some attack animations in and even some abilities. Very cool. Now you can kill and rez yourself. Not that it will stay like that, but just getting the abilities in is pretty damn nifty. The ability icons themselves need much love and attention as they currently kinda suck. And the casting animation is horrible. I have to look into it and see wtf is going on there. We reworked character creation so you can start as one of four classes now, instead of just one default class. And we also worked on... oh, I don't know. A lot of other stuff!
In other news, I made a strange discovery today. There is apparently ANOTHER husband-and-wife team here in Austin working on a fantasy RPG project they are calling "mana punk" as well. I believe theirs is a pen-and-paper game. Still, a strange coincidence. When we first came up with the concept there really wasn't a lot of "mana punk" stuff online. Just a few references. So glad we could snag manapunk.com when we did!
