Summary:

Last years project were shelved when the primary developer experienced a health relapse. This is a new and much smaller project to get everyone back into the swing of creating, finishing, and publishing games.

Are we on target to meet the next fest deadline of April 30th? No, no we are not. We were trying to start this project in Jan, but lingering health issues curtailed those efforts. We have one month of development completed after 3 months (Jan, Feb, Mar) as we pushed through the health issues as best we could. We will have a demo by end of May. We are on track to publish by end of August.

Timeline is subject to change as health issues arise.
