The Shining Source

Added 4 new shots to the gallery (from the Christmas demo), and also 2 new works by Kusgam, including some rather lovely wallpaper!

Also added some more entries to the development diary, and changed 1 or 2 bits on the download page (okay, I changed 1 thing :P)

More updates coming soon…

Not a lot…

• Wrote some compression routines – shrinks maps up to 2% of their original size. Which is nice.
• Tested a few more online options.

That’s right, I even work on New Year’s Eve…

• Put in the new title screen, complete with menus.
• Improved load/saving.
• Added a character chooser.
• Played with some online stuff. It worked ;).
• Generally messed around with the code…

B.A.B.S. is out!

Shiny Sword: Cloud Slayer, as it is now officially known, is officially off the indefinate hold. Today I’ve taken a good look at the stuff that hung on my computer and I enhanced the game in several ways. I removed some bugs, smoothed out the battle engines and I implemented the battle backgrounds which you can see here.

When we’re going to do the server move, I’ll release a new version of TSS which will have Mavellantica as new area and several more bug fixes :)
