I'm conflicted.

1.) Congratulations, that looks amazing.

2.) Crap, no one is going to want the nonsense I make anymore because your games are too good.

The dungeon, boss, and attack style definitely feel Startropics inspired, so I approve!

Not sure about the penis attack from the boss, though

More like Hentai Tentacle attack

The game is coming along great. The intro and start screen looking absolutely stunning.

This looks fantastic! Keep up the good work. My wife would totally be into this, as our house is filled with all kinds of owl stuff. Is there a leveling system, or is it kinda on the zelda model of adding more hearts and finding more stuff?

Everyone: Thanks for all the kind words! It could be upwards of 2 years out still---we are called Gradual Games for a reason!

retro_wv: That's fun, my wife loves owls as well, haha! As for leveling system vs. hearts: The central gameplay mechanic is Adlanniel's owl, Tyto. He's going to learn up to 7 techniques throughout the game. We're hoping to develop interesting puzzles that require each technique and hopefully integrate those techniques into boss fights.

Any interest in doing a Star Tropics 4 and 5 when you are done with this one?

All kidding aside, progress looks great!
