You all crack me up

Thanks for the well-wishing, everything came out just fine. Well, not just fine, but everything came out. Which is a good thing.

The first 10 times I tried natto I could barely keep it down. The smell and the texture alone was bad enough. If you grow up on the stuff, it's a lot easier, kinda like vegemite in Australia or root-beer in the states

(seriously, I've had foreigners almost vomit from trying to drink root beer, weird huh?).

But that natto stuff is *super* cheap (and supposedly healthy) so I decided to press on, and now I can eat it with no problems... Aside from my lips being stuck together and everything smelling like fermented beans for the next 3 hours.

Yeah, gotta get past the smell afterwards +::lol

You could always try it with diced takuwan. Changes the flavoring a bit, but then the smell also changes +::lol

We'll all keep checking on Arvale II's progress and looking forward to another wheelbarrow adventure +::lol

Don't know a thing about natto but I'm definitely in the mood for some wheelbarrows. +::biggrin

Wheelbarrows are coming so soon you can almost taste them. Almost.

Now, don't ask me what a Wheelbarrow tastes like.

On schedule for the release and a bit behind at the same time. I'm currently moving to another apartment in Tokyo (I needed more space for the Wheelbarrows) and I won't have internet access for a week... which could make the release a bit difficult.

In any case, I'm still aiming for April 3rd and if I'm happy with the game (and I find an internet cafe with tons of upload bandwidth) enough to release it, I will. Otherwise, maximum one more week.

I know, I know... I'm a bad person.

Are your wheelbarrows having wheelbarrows? +::lol

by **Alikamou** » Fri Apr 02, 2010 7:48 pm

They must be filled with "natto" +::lol

okay jaybot...we're all waiting when you're ready, cause I'm definitely suffering from wheelbarrow withdrawal +::lol

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm? Guess the wheelbarrow race hasn't started yet.

I wonder if we'll get to see wheelbarrows today. +::Dunno

Hi jaybot7. Like the game but wish they were mouse enabled as I have a bad right shoulder and doing the keys hurt me. But, other than that I like the game.

Ah... sweet, sweet internet. How I have missed you.

Sorry... *cough* I haven't had internet in over a week

Episode II is so ready now and will definitely be released sometimes on Saturday (Japan time, so maybe late Friday for some of you, who knows?)

Stealth: I feel you (CTS/tendonitis person here) and completely understand wanting both options. I've been trying to implement it from the beginning (but it's tricky). However, it is on the list of definite new features going into Episode III
