The lack of news is a bit worrisome. Even just a little "still in progress" message would be nice.
How's it going? Any updates?

Any update for backers?
Can you post the update written below as an official "update"? We are all rooting for you and hope to see your project come to light, whether it is on schedule or behind schedule. Therefore updating all of your backers would be appreciated.
Hey Nancy, Geesh ...
We are rocking and rolling. Our attention has been split between three main areas:
- Storyboarding and story revision; literally rewriting the story as much as possible before we start committing funds to production art and sound.
- Concurrent with this, a great deal of prototyping on ways of interacting with the art and sound.
- Legal purgatory: turns out that it's a little more complicated than we initially thought to craft profit sharing agreements, etc. We see the light at the end of the tunnel here.
We've reached script lock for the first chapter and are currently laying out the storyboards. Once some of the sequences are finished, we will post some teasers. All of the tools for making the actual game are polished and the next hurdle is really delving into the art style as we prepare to make the production art push.
I also would like to hear some updates on progress . . . estimated delivery is listed as this month. I understand delays, and will wait for the best product, but just want to hear some updates.
Any updates on the progress?
How is it going guys?
Can't wait to see this
