01. The character art is turning out great! I won't show them all off yet, but let this concept burn into your skull.
02. There's a lot of additional yumminess happening, but among them is the fact that there are (technically) four endings. Most interesting is that you can lose the last battle now, which is an ending in itself, albeit never as satisfying as winning. The other endings are optional and hearken to the Clue(do)/Whodunnit influences.
There are a ton of amazing pieces of polish and additions now, making the game feel more full and less like a side project. However, as I close up on progress, I can't decide what I should report on and what I should save as a surprise! In any case, I'm in love with this game, and I hope other people will feel the same way.
Glad you like them! The character art is from a professional artist. Every other art assets is made by me (except for two special effects animations from the RTP, which are too good not to use).
