Status report!
Not going to make the stated release date at this point.
Art: I'm still missing three in-game images. My new artist is a fast worker, but has been very sick for the last month, which has slowed down progress a lot.
Music: I have all but two of the songs done for the new soundtrack, and a rough draft for one of those two. After that, I'm going to be doing a lot of final tweaking before I call any of these tracks complete.
Gameplay: I need to difficulty tweak a few spell cards, but after that I'm calling it done.
Story: I still need to write and code the Bad Endings.
All in all, I think I can shoot for a January release, but it all depends on my artist's health improving, She sounded optimistic.
