Well, it's been awhile since I've been able to work on the game, but there's been some forum discussion and content generation. We've had some snow here in Portland and I've found some time to implement some of these changes.
I'm happy to report that Contrued's sneak sprites have replaced the old sprites in the current prototype files at: http://www.hero6.org/?page_id=32
My wife and I are off to deliver some soup to family members who are snowed in. When I get home from my snowy expedition, I'll take a look at ChamberofFear's options menu.
The support you've all demonstrated for the project has been very exciting! I'm glad I wasn't alone in my love for this project.
