Alright, progress report:

I have the general design of all the rooms, they just need some ambiance.
One more sprite to go.
The faceset's are mostly done, I just need to touch up a few.
I still need to fix all the bugs with the puzzles, which is gonna be tricky.

So! I'm working on endings, different endings. Also, I'm working on making it so that you can play the game almost completely differently several different ways, depending on random and user-initiated factors.

As a side note, I'm building an art gallery of game-related sketches and paintings in my spare time. A link to the art, or individual pieces will be rewards in the game.
Or something along the lines of this, still working out details.

In conclusion:
Not dead yet. The game's skeleton is pretty much done, it just needs some pretty skin.
