I am pleased to say that I have finished the basic programming for the full game of A Song of Warriors!

That being said, however, I cannot yet put a firm date on the release, though I'm hoping to have it done by the end of the month.  What I'm doing right now is playing through the game (over and over again) to test out every possibility and find all the errors.  (The randomness of some of the features, especially the newspaper articles, is making this task somewhat more complex, unfortunately...)

Also to endlessly fiddle with the minutiae of the text, and fine-tune sprite placements and other visual effects.

For example on that latter point, I learned--from a blog post by the team behind The Divine Speaker--the method to apply filters over the graphics, so we don't have brightly-lit daytime sprites on a nighttime background....

Looks so much better than in the demo, right?  :D
