Time for another character from Roger Steel world. Please note that all those images are still work in progress: for example we’re thinking to make Arthur’s hair light brown to match Ann’s. His “devilish look” will still remain though \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

Introducing Arthur<\/strong><\/p>\n

Up until now, you\u2019d be forgiven for thinking that Roger Steel is a yuri title given that all the characters we\u2019ve introduced so far have been women (not that there\u2019s anything wrong with that!); but you\u2019d be mistaken as our next character attests.<\/em><\/p>\n

Arthur is a rather outgoing fellow who\u2019s probably a bit too clever for his own good, especially with his tongue (and get your minds out of the gutter right now: that is not what I meant!). Along with his partner in crime, Neville, genius inventor whom we\u2019ll meet in a couple of weeks or so, Arthur is something of a whiz with gadgets, although you, his esteemed players, might prefer to develop his sharpshooting, archery, martial arts, or sundry other non-combat skills.<\/em><\/p>\n

Whether Arthur indulges in romance or simply becomes the star of his very own action buddy movie VN-TBS RPG, is up to you; as is whether he treats the rescue of his sister as a true coming-of-age, or simply a great excuse for a damn good time with lots of handsome gents and lovely ladies to party with during those long evenings camping beneath the stars in the wilderness.<\/em><\/p>\n

Seasons Of The Wolf update<\/strong><\/p>\n

Work on SOTW continues, last week I finally had the last missing images for Dingirra, like the big Arena:<\/p>\n

\"newarena\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And the artist who was busy with another project now can resume working on this, he’s currently doing the 3rd Act tileset (won’t be more specific for people who didn’t play the game yet to avoid spoilers!).<\/p>\n

Another big new feature was the improved AI, which gave me a whole new array of possibilities to make the player think “wow this computer opponent could even seem smart sometimes!” \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

\"newAI\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Currently coding battles against Ghosts and Wraiths, Zombies and Liches, and so on. (the background on the battle screen above is temporary obviously).<\/p>\n

While I cannot give any estimate yet, also because a lot of art is still missing, I’m guessing that could be done with Act3 for end of September \ud83d\ude42 I also have two new games approved on Steam (Roommates and Bionic Heart 2) so adding them to the portal will take some time too!<\/p>\n

One last thing, do you remember that preview image I posted last week? still not announcing the game officially but I’m facing a tough choice. More info and a poll in my forums: http:\/\/winterwolves.net\/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=3418<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
