Okay, so this update's gonna be a bit different from usual.
Essentially, Triangulate has all the art done for the upgraded demo save for a new background and a few other odds and ends.
And on my end, I haven't really gotten any work done besides the odds and ends of some things. If you're wondering why that is, let me lead into what (unfortunately, although it's no one's fault) delayed us for the past week or so.
Cheshire lives (now lived) in an apartment, and his landlord is a bit of a dick, to say the least. He's so much of a dick that when Cheshire accidentally locked himself out of his apartment, something we've all done once or twice, not only did the landlord not have any spare keys, he refused to allow Cheshire to get into his apartment through way of a locksmith.
Guess what was in Cheshire's apartment when he got locked out? Yup, his computer.
So, for the next week or so, Cheshire had to stay at his friend's house, and effectively couldn't get anything on the game done, which of course means I couldn't really do anything either (as all I have left are the maps and so forth).
Cheshire, in this time frame, went to the cops, who confirmed that his landlord apparently was a multiple-times over tax evader/frauder and thus Cheshire made the choice to get the hell out of there the first chance he had. Through a number of more talks with police and a whole host of other stress and messes Cheshire had to go through, he was finally able to get back access to his apartment, get his stuff, and get the hell out of there.
He's currently staying at his friends again, while looking for a new apartment as well, but he's making the game his first priority because he knows we've gotta make up for lost time.
While he's going to be able to give me a version of the game I can knock out maps on come Monday, he's also programming the rest of the engine in as we speak (working weekends as well as weekdays on the project) and if all goes well, we should be able to finish the upgraded between the 14th and 21st of July, and then from there move onto the Ice Level.
Sorry again for these delays; poor Cheshire has been put through some incredibly unlucky events as of the past month or so, but we should finally, finally be all on track, healthy, and ready to knock this thing out ASAP. Thanks so, so much for understanding and your support. :)
