Pre-production on the next version of Validus is well underway;
plot and character design are progressing nicely, the game engine is reaching playable levels and a team of voice actors is nearly assembled.

YESS!

I'm currently improving my Audio skills so that I can make some theme music worthy of being in the game. Once I've learned enough to mix/balance properly and customise synths to my liking, I'll be ready.
The concept for the theme song will probably be done within a week or two.

///update
The song is done, see below. 'No room in hell"
It's unfinished, needs quotes and sfx added, and will be remixed when this happens. That won't be for a while though.

Work is taking up most of my time at the moment, but soon I'll be going back to more casual work schedule and will have enough time to do some serious making.

Here's a promo shot I made up a while back:

I've been doing some concept doodles for a game in production, take a look!
The game will be adventure/action with a bunch of mini games.

They're only preliminary, but I'm starting to get the feel of what the aliens will be like.
Gonna go in a cartoony/comic direction, but not too much.

P.S: Engine alpha is here:

Finally got one that will actually work with my PC, no more putting in notes with the mouse!
HUZZAH! Also has the pressure sensetivity action for awesomeness.
Midi keyboard > mouse

Solid Steel is my first proper song made with it, more to come once I learn the ways of the keyboard.

[EDIT]
Storm the Gates released!
Made it for the Castle Crashers comp, it's EPIC. I wish I had a little bit more time to spend on it though :/

DEADLINES ARE DEADLINES I guess.
