Sunnydale is in a sunny place

I can almost guarantee that the game will be out this year (!). I was aiming for a Summer release, but, um, I don't see that happening. But an Autumn release could be possible, if I keep chipping away at it.

Initially, I had meant for this game to be completed in 2010, the year it was started, but so many things "got in the way", so to speak. A lot has changed with me, and I have had to prioritize other things. I didn't think I would ever get into RPGM again, but I guess I just felt the need to indulge in some healthy brain candy.I am determined to get this out and Gatekeeper as well, which I'm really proud of, so far.

So here's the deal. For the last...two months, I think? whenever things have been slow at work, I have been writing out scenes for Sunnydale (and Gatekeeper, too) and when I get home, I'd do a little bit of dungeon-building here, and a little bit there, and it's all starting to add up. In terms of where the storyline is, I'm basically at the endgame. After I'm done with the current dungeon, I'll be pretty much done with the "main path", sans the last dungeon. All I would have left to do would be to write out scenes for a few of the side paths, which shouldn't be difficult.

As far as the dungeon construction goes, that is just about finished. All I have to do is finish Billy Loomis's dungeon, and the final one. That's it.

I haven't updated the demon library yet, but that's the easiest part for me, so it's no big.

All in all, the end is definitely near. I'm pretty pumped about possibly having another finished game out there. No more demos for me. I contemplated submitting one for Gatekeeper during the Release Something weekend, but nope! That's what got me in trouble in the first place.

PS: Hints (minor spoilers!)

Is it bad that I didn't know who the final boss of this game was going to be until three weeks ago? lol I had it in my mind that it was going a certain iconic villain whose first name rhymes with rector... but I've replaced him with another iconic horror movie superstar. This person's story is tragic, and I know just how to incorporate it into the game.

Can you please upload the latest demo for this game, thanks!
I'll actually consider that! Part of me would rather wait until the game is completed before uploading another version, but I'll put out an updated demo if enough people want it. It's going to be really rough, though.
