hey,
i checked out the intro sequence a little while back after you posted before and i have to say i was impressed at the professional feel of that! this demo, being almost a year old is very impressive too! and your graphics aren't really that bad [smile], just take a look at my projects! the art in those is positively repulsive!
seriously though, i highly commend you on the progress you've made on this awesome looking game. i eagerly look forward to seeing more demos from the newer versions of the game!
