Alright, so I shifted gears a little; rather than deal with the daunting task of arting the whole thing before sending a private demo, I placeholdered the graphics and shot off the emails.
Somehow doign that simple thing motivated me more, and a much larger portion fo the graphics are done now than were when I send the demo last week. I covered a lot of ground, and I see a good direction for this project. I'm less pessimistic about finishing this phase this year.
Once again, at work, no screens. And also once again, if I *do* put up screens, I'll frontpage this.
