From Lynn...our intrepid leader[Linked Image]
you make it sound like Christmas all over again!
I'm so excited... i think i just pee-ed my pants! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
Maybe I should have quoted the whole piece,
or you can discover for yourself... here at RPG Vault Peek#25
Quote

...we have so many things to share with you, but hardly have the time. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devil.gif" alt="" />

The last pieces of music are being finalized and added to the game. Parts of
the world need to be polished (graphically and content-wise)...
and some weeks ago, we started with our in-house beta testing.
Two people are leading the tests, and we have people coming over to test
the game very thoroughly; this happens on a daily base from morning 'til
evening. They are a real help for us and give us feedback regarding
what's fun and what's not, what's bugged and what's not,
what can be improved...

Our main focus is now the demo... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" />

Jeroen makes sure that Act 3 will bring the most hardcore RPG players to their knees, begging for their mommy. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Marian is fine tuning some of the last monsters and checking them together
with Ike to see if everything looks okay after exporting. He created some
small animals and some extra animated objects to make the world more alive,
and finished the very last character icons. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mage.gif" alt="" />

I could go on and on, and there are, of course,
way more things that are currently be done in the studio, <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/think.gif" alt="" />

Stay tuned for more next week. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> And here's a new image showing gargoyles.

[color:"orange"]Yep, spring is definitely my favorite time of the year. And better yet, I pre-ordered <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" /> today. It's due to ship 04/13/04. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/up.gif" alt="" /> *Happy Dance* [/color] [color:"yellow"] GO ME!!

[color:"yellow"] Yep. I ordered it online. Apparently, my credit card won't be charged until the game is shipped. Either way it doesn't matter. I have the money. But you've got time to try and stash away a few dollars a week. By the time it's released, you'll have the $$ to buy it.

I wish I was rich enough to buy everyone here <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beyond.gif" alt="" />. Wouldn't that be fun?!?

Errr... Not a fan of that. Particularly given my credit card has a $0 limit.

*with tension so thick, you could cut it with a knife...
the darkened auditorium echoed with chants of [color:"red"]"DEMO"...."DEMO"....."DEMO"...[/color]
lighters flashing, and arms pounding the air...the lights slowly dim...
the audience eager to get on with it, falls silent for what's to come...
...suddenly a blinding flash on the stage, "did you feel the heat" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/alien.gif" alt="" />
The silence is sweetened by a "soft", "female voice" over the loudspeaker...
...she says,
[color:"yellow"]"Nobody has to be sad, the demo is out... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/kitty.gif" alt="" />
...eh... soon, Let's hope you will like it *fingers crossed* [/color]......

The crowd, momentarily stunned by this revelation, is silent
for but a moment....[Linked Image]
then...they go nuts,! [Linked Image] "Fightdrums3" plays loudly... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> ...
... it's gonna be a . <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/party.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/party.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/silly.gif" alt="" />

and a little... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" /> (because we always do) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />


Some reports said the cheers could be heard all the way to Canada! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/alien.gif" alt="" />
