I decided to put up a donate button on this Blog.
Not to get rich, but because I already bought assets for Valgards fate and I am sure that the costs will grow with projects growth.
So if anybody really wants this game to be finished as fast as possible, don't hesitate to donate a few bucks. I will spend any incoming money only for Valgards fate game assets (3D models mostly).
Any help is highly appreciated.

Working on editor & content
Currently I am working on the editor and game content (namely graphics).
The editor is already coming along nicely. Doing graphics is a very long process, but I already have some nice tiles and assets for the game.
Here is a screenshot of what I am able to do at the moment:

Todays progress
Ingame log is working properly now. There are always the last 4 lines of the log visible. The log will contain all important game events and combat logs.
The player gets experience for discovering the dungeon. For every revealed "fog of war"-tile he earns 1 experience point. I did this to motivate the player to explore all dungeon levels completely and not just descending levels.
I managed to add the ingame menuscreen today.
In addition to that you can already select the main items and show up the minimap which I finished today, too.
It looks quite good so far.

Zune community recognized me
Only a few hours after posting my first ingame video on Youtube, I got an invitation to join the zuneboard.com-community. After registering at the forums I immediatly recognized people writing about Valgards fate. I was very surprised and joined the conversation.
I got a lot of very positiv feedback which motivates me very much of course :)

Projectstart
Hello!
My new project is targetting the Microsoft Zune platform.
Basically the Zune is "just" a mobile MP3/Video player like the iPod, but Microsoft enabled Zune support in their latest XNA 3.0 CTP release.
Now that it's possible to develop games on that device, I wanted to do my own little role playing game on the Zune.
Stay tuned... Updates will follow soon!
