You're a lot better than me at texturing! Like the new tree and lamp models, very fantasy-like. Still can't really think of any questions, you've answered most of them over this past year. Which reminds me, pretty sure last week was my one year anniversary for watching you. Pretty sure I started watching you as you followed me on Twitter!

[PianoMan]

Woow... That new area with the water and trees looks so amazing, it has some kind of magic feel to it.
Good luck these last few weeks before the Kickstarter! Will be donating as much as I can :)

[darkbyte]

Socuwan is truly starting to look beautiful.

[VestolGaming]

Hey man,
I was following your tutorials towards the very beginning when your game was in very early development. Just wanna say the game is looking very good! Keep up the good work man!

[cirusMEDIA]

Seeing a new video upload from #ThinMatrix  is always refreshing! :)

[MohammedPlaysMC]

Hay man I was happy to see this dev log iv just came back from the outside and was feeling inspired and feeling more inspired now so im going to draw and make random things :D

[mabc]

I think you should add an animation to make the windmill spin :) I think it would look pretty cool.

Btw, love how this game has turned out so for and good luck on the move! :3

Graphical Style very similar to RuneScape, it looks nice.

Q&A How long you think you will be making this game? Will you edit the player character to a more "HD" version? (Better model)

[brandonvance]

Love the progress! One thing that I would think to be a good idea for the kickstarter is a start up screen when the player first opens the game. I'm sure you've thought of that already. As well music! Music can have a huge effect on the feel of a game. I really like the music in this video, not too intense and a bit soothing but also mysterious. I think that style of music would do great for this game.

[sleightofrune]

I noticed that you had named one of the areas Evito; sweet! I assume it will be a dangerous place because of the fact that evito means avoid, and well, the big volcano.

[kolosemano]

(Q&A)
Have you ever played Mount&Blade?
How do you make area with objects? You made an editor for world or you write position of objects in code?
Will you upload test version? :)

[MechanicsStudents]

Not sure you did this before, but can you do a walkthrough ever so often in the game for all progress you've gotten so far? That'll be cool.

[GTASAVideos]

Man, those willow trees around the lake remind me of runescape somewhat. Great progress on the game. It has become truly amazing if you look back on the first several dev logs.

[htechhd]

Maybe you should make the boat from the beginning of the video sway left and right

[allencorbs]

Q&A; Do you have any future plans for a new game after this one or will the videos you post just be about updating the game?

Awesome :) When we can expect kickstarter ?

[petrushque-]

When you gonna add some story(quests, dungeons maybe and etc)?

[terminater]

Q: Do you plan on releasing this to the public?  As a testing-sort of game, open source, ETC?

[AprexoArt]

Q&A: Where do you see the game in a years time?
