When I think of what you are planning on doing, I think of how fans of Half-Life remade the game into Black Mesa.
Of course they had teams working on *that* for at least a decade....
*lol* I don't expect you to invest that much time and effort, but I do like what you have planned. I did suggest you give some of your characters different builds from the body-builder-type. Also, you could introduce perhaps more different racial types, like Asian or Indian.
And perhaps you might add content to the story inside, adding more details, or even adding sub-plots that might then tie into the main plot — or perhaps just be a dead end (but still fun!)
One warning: Do you know of the Mythos author T.E.D. Klein. He has written some excellent Mythos fiction (and other fiction in general). But his output of material is somewhat small — because he keeps rewriting what he wrote, and then rewriting that, and then rewriting that.... *sigh* He is such a *good* author, I and others wish there was more of his works to read.
Just as you did with this 0.9.9 version of the game, you *ARE* going to be learning now to do things better by doing them over again — and also, the technology will keep improving. So promise yourself that the 1.0.0 version will be your *FINAL* version of Leather and Madness (barring any bug-fix updates).
And then move on to making a *NEW* game — or doing something entirely different: maybe write a gay Mythos *novel* instead. Don't fall into the trap of always wanting to make L&M better and Better and BETTER....
Well, unless you decide to redo the whole thing *two decades* from now.
