More like overpowered. A result of my amateur skills back then.

If this is your idea of cutting back, I shudder to think what you were originally planning ...

Great to hear that this is back on. Hopefully this time you'll reach the finish line. Best of luck.

I've cut 50+ monsters that would otherwise be sprited from scratch - undoable until I can pose my Sculptris sculptures in Blender.

I've also cut out 5 unique environments, which means I can reuse the same textures now. That saves me months of custom texture drawing.

I've already (nearly) finished all the monsters I will need for the new nerfed Ep3, and the ones I don't yet have are pretty easy to sprite/edit.

The new episode 3 should be about as difficult as the remake of Episode 2, given larger maps. Should be doable, and if not, some outside help would definitely be enough since I wont have to ask people to "help me sprite 50 monters?".

Wow, glad to see this back on the rails.

50+ monsters? Holy imp balls batman. That is way too much for one person. Nothing wrong with having ambitious goals, but that takes it to the extreme :p

Both happy to hear this is being worked on once more and that you scaled back. Considering everything you said you originally had planned, it sounded like the final product might've suffered from some content bloat.

Excellent! Great to see this back Eriance. The cut of the 50+ monsters I'm sort of in the middle with but as Death Egg implied, less content bloat. I look forward to the final release.

Good to see this project being revitalized.

I'm more interested in seeing some new weapons, but new and retooled monsters are also a welcome addition.

New Guardian Design (not yet finalized)

Something looks off with the the skull. Not sure what it is yet. More or less the same behavior - spins, floats, shoots fireballs. Will probably make it change color, and have it drop different ammo depending on which color it is.

THAT is incredible! I still like the old Guardian Cube set (and the Heretic and Hexen variants that were made), but this one is really awesome. :D
