That looks great. Keep up the good work.

So far so good with this conversion. I'm about halfway thru the battle engine right now, I'll be able to post screenshots of that soon enough. I've spent a lot of time over the past few days optimizing the hell out of the game engine...still plenty to go too. :) No sound effects in the game yet, but that's coming soon as well. :)

Did some polishing up of the game while we wait for the cutscenes. :)

Wow, those screenshots bring back a lot of memories. They certainly ring true of the original.

Keep up the effort!

You're redoing the graphics though right? I mean... what good is a remake if everything looks the same

[Nodtveidt]

I had called it a port but everyone else called it a remake. :) It's a bit of both. The tile graphics have all changed, the sprites have been touched up a bit, and the music has been greatly enhanced. But it still plays the same way (unless you play the Balanced game) so any strategies from the original will still work here.

Whats the status of MS at this point? Soon to be finished?

After going through FOUR ARTISTS to draw the cutscenes (that none of which ever delivered a single image for one reason or another), we decided to just allow Keranu, our sprite artist, do them instead. This game is now 8 months late because of this problem. If I hadn't wanted proper cutscenes in the game, it'd be out already, although it'd lack the real charm of a CDROM oldschool console game, which are animated cutscenes.

Cutscenes? Then I would call it more like a remake than a port ^_^. It's bad that four different people have failed you on one darn thing not even making one image. So its only the cutscenes left? I'm curiously waiting for a download :).

Yup, pretty much only cutscenes remain. Also though, there are a few translations of the game, one of them is done (Spanish), one has been started (Japanese) and one is off in la-la-land somewhere (French). The download will be up at some point in time this year...that's all I can give for an ETA.

If you want a swedish translation, I am at your service :P

There might be space left on the disc for a swedish translation...that hadn't come up due to the apparent lack of a swedish PCE scene. I'll run the idea by the guys though and I'll get back to you on that one. :)

On the other hand, a swedish translation isn't needed. Swedish people are overall good english readers. But it would be cool :).

Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any interest in a Swedish translation...sorry man. :(
