Hey everybody! If y'all are a little curious where I've been, this game hasn't technically been abandoned. It's been crowded out by animation work! That is both a good thing, and a really really bad thing, at once.

I have an updated edition, too, complete with sloped and procedural floors; but there seems to be a bug in my object pooling somewhere and it may be a while before it's stable enough to release. So, I apologize for being unable to say "I'm getting right back to this" or "updates coming soon"; as always, the updates come when they're ready.

I was just goofing around, so it's nice to see that the game is so well received. I wasn't expecting that. As some of you might know, it's written entirely in C; and built with Maketools and gcc for Linux, mingw64 for Windows, and emscripten for web. C is a great language, but it's so close to the metal you have to keep your code clean.

My current (available to the public) animation work is at https://www.youtube.com/user/vikinghelmet99 . Feel free to check it out. Shorts coming soon-enough, then, when I'm able and willing to take a break from that, I'll get back to digging through this. Peace everybody.
