Is that a threat? A mysterious warning? A promise?
I'll have you know, good sir, that I have a certain set of skills... which include "weeping like a baby" *and* "running away really fast". Also my hat allows me to blend in with the crowd, so you will never find me.

In response to my other fan mail:
I just felt like saying hello to the nice gentlemen with the fancy hat *waves*
Greetings Heavenly6, you seem to be a fine fellow and I like the cut of your jib.
At least you give us prior warning before you fuck off into the sunset
Dear Gorbinadam, please rest assured that no sunset-fucking is occurring, nor is it planned. Although I will admit to treating this project as a HOBBY that I do on my own schedule because otherwise I might stop ENJOYING it, and then would run the risk of giving up.

Progress update: I've been doing some scene writing; writing dialogs and putting them into "motion". That means using engine mechanics stuff to show the character sprites in position or move them as the scene warrants. I find this easier to feel like I am making forward progress than when grinding artwork, so a balance of the two helps me keep moving.
I was chatting with a friend and doing some navel-gazing about a curious fact; when out and about, I find myself *thinking* about the game all the time. The characters or scenes or good lines of dialog, or seeing some pose or clothing item, or hearing a music piece... all things from outside that strike me and I think how "that would work *HERE* in the game"....
But when I do get some free time and sit down at my battlestation, I really have to force myself to open the editor and start. Funny how the human mind works. I wonder if I am afraid of looking bad - and I can put off showing anything real to the world if I procrastinate more.
Meh. Intellectually I know that as long as I keep making some progress, the project will crawl forward. I hope you all stick around to see it when it does land!
