A quick update

We have updated our deadline to before the first of October in accordance to the EuroGamer entry deadlines. By this time we will have the gameplay mechanics in along with a few levels and a survival mode within the game, allowing players to get a feel for what the final product will be. Bamboo Raven have recently sent over some 3D renderings of Lazarus. Personally I think they are great and show a lot of promise for the future. Along with these renderings we also recently posted a very basic overview of the HUD system along with some rough particle effects, you can find that here.

Plans for this week?

We hope to have the HUD fully implemented along with a Drag and Drop system for the spells using Scaleform Clik. We also intend to create a few more spell effects such as the Area of Effect spells along with working on a targeting system.
