This week was very busy but also saw quite a lot of progress, effectively bringing the writer team ahead it's set schedule. We've now got an almost complete version of our gameworld design document and quite well fleshed plans for the main character types (including backgrounds and main missions/goals). We also got to test the dialog system a bit (it's suprisingly fun to see a pile of painstakingly written script to turn into a coherent dialogue) and discussed the new character models with Risto and the graphics team. If things go well, I'm expecting to have some reference graphics to show you in the near future.

As suggested by Kris, we'll also try to take a short break from the fascinating world of game design and take a few "behind the scenes" -photos of the offices soon to give you a glimpse of the undeniable glamour of games industry. :D

Last but not least, keep up the great work, everyone! Even though we haven't had that much active time to spend on WAM lately, we read everything posted here and many of your ideas have already found their way into the design documents. :)
