FEBRUARY 23RD 2023

Sorry ladies and gents, it's still not ready.
I'm trying not to settle for less and as a direct consequence, it's become really big.

We're looking at a game with a potential to hit 100 hours of playtime.
It has 150-200 secret rooms, 250 unique enemies, 60+ bosses, 500+ locations already and something like 60 sidequests. I could wrap it up faster or split it but I'm trying to make this adventure really special and unique. I'm only asking for a bit more patience. Half of the game has been sent for proofreading. Second half should be before mid January.
February 23rd also marks the 14 years of the release of 3 Stars of Destiny, and as LS definitely has gameplay/graphics bits that are reminiscent of 3S, so I think it would make a nice date to use.

Have a nice end of the year, everyone!

No problem Indy. You are a perfectionist and I'd rather wait and have a great game to play. Looking forward to it. Have a good Christmas and New Year.

Potential 100 hours of gameplay?!?! That's amazing!

Okay it's fixed. The more the postpones, the better the game. You can't change my mind.

Commenting as the proofreader, not as a player.

He's not joking about the size of this game, it's not just "really big", it's enormous. And very much in the tradition of LP (for those who played that trilogy) and LF.

The graphics look like they're going to be special - lots of tiles I've not seen before and used well.
Obviously I can't say much because of spoilers, but I think this will appeal to both existing LF fans and those who haven't played any of the existing games.

Can't stop to say more, have to get back to work on it. Proofreading something this big is a lot of work.

I just saw the newsletter - the size of LS will be absolutely crazy.
160+ secret rooms, wow!
When I think about it, it means that it will be very hard not to miss more secret rooms than any other Aldorlea game ever had... +::O_o
