super interested in this, with all battles finished how far out is a total release? and thanks i love homebrew games, i made a fan based beatem up off guardian heroes once.

All battles are finished and in working order. I'm currently working on playing my way through the game and adding the post battle cutscenes / linking up the maps as I go. It's not hard, but it is rather tedious.

Lol, welcome back to the forums.

Glad to hear that the game ran smoothly and that you enjoyed it.

A little update:
I just finished battle 5 which took way longer than I expected due to a bunch of small additions and tweaks to the AI code. My goal for today is to get the final battle of chapter 1 finished and to code up the next cutscene.

Hey, I used to have an account on here a few years back, made a new one today as I couldn't remember my details (nor do I have access to the old email account I used anymore!)

It was great to see the demo up on the front page, just played it through and it runs really well. Felt like a true SF game and i totally forgot it was a demo until the final message popped up 

Keep up the great work, looking forward to playing future versions

Working towards finishing up chapter 1 for the next demo. I've got 5 character portraits, and 3 maps left as far as art / design stuff goes. Then it's down to setting up the battles and cutscenes which shouldn't take more than a few days. My goal is to get it out early October, but I have a crazy work schedule this month so no promises lol.

The new character portraits are in!

You can play the early part of the game now. This one is the latest demo.

I'll be finishing the rest of chapter 1 for the next demo though it might be a while before I get there as there's still lots to do.

Cool, when can we play!?

We need an animator for episode 4, know anyone, animate yourself? Let us know!

We need animators, or at least one for the current episode. It pays $50 per episode and it's hard work, but the show is great and we really need the help! If you love the Shining series and abridged/machinima's you'll love (or so we hope) Whining Force!
