Something tells me the project is dead yet again. Does anyone know if Soulweaver is still working on it?

I'm sure he's working on it, but he doesn't have anything in particular to say about it.

I have some quite recent local changes that aren't in the repository currently (some basic Freezer mechanics, namely). I've been somewhat occupied, though, by my rereading of the CLANNAD visual novel that I finally received around a month ago (a "perk" of being a physical-only EU backer was to get it later than everyone else), the already past Summer Games Done Quick 2016, and now the ongoing European Speedrunner Assembly 2016. Plus I was quite overwhelmed from moving from the three work days + two university days (that I mostly spent home) schedule to the full five-day week for the summer as well But it is still on my mind and I'm still working on it whenever I have enough time.

Oh, it's nice to see you're still working on it. I like how your taskbar on top, not bottom

Yeah, I'm still interested in progress towards this project. Looking back, it really came a long way from what you first showed us!

In a way, I feel kind of sad that all I can do here is appreciate the project. I can't really program, but if you do donations at some point I'm willing to support.

Just a small update: I posted a round-up video of features that were added in since May. As evident from both my activity here and in the repository, my focus has again been all over the place except in PC, but I'll try to put more effort into it again soon.

I think I read these messages before but didn't have to time to answer right away and forgot... Anyways:

Hehe, thanks It's a long time habit now; I find it useful to have the task bar on the eye level than at the bottom.

Your and everyone else's interest into it is already enough support, and also something I am quite grateful for

Programming-wise, it's not like it'd be easy for anyone to contribute at the moment really. There's still a lot of cruft in the engine that needs to be rewritten in a better way, so the game core would pretty much be a moving target to anyone else looking towards helping. Maybe in the future it will be more stable...

Donations have crossed my mind at least once but I decided that as long as I cannot reliably promise continuous development, it'd pretty much be a scam on my part, plus I'm managing well with the salary from my daily job anyway so it'd just be a bonus and not something that really helped me put the bread on the table. So, I don't think that'll happen even if it would sound like a motivator.

EDIT: Magic. Okay, still a bit broken, but regardless.
