    Alot of work has been done in the past two weeks, and we are very happy with the progress we have made. We thank everyone who posted on the forum or emailed us with enthusiastic responses, and we hope we can live up to all of your expectations.

    AveneR is leaving tomorrow on a vacation for a week, so I will be working solo for that time. When he returns there should be some big news (finally), and beta testers (who have already been chosen) will be contacted to begin testing soon after. PLEASE do not ask to be a beta tester because we do not need any more, and the game will be released for a public beta soon enough.

    I am looking for any experienced sprite rippers (if you do not know what that means, do not apply) to help us in the next week or two. If you are interested and willing to do serious help and work, contact me at [email protected]. Please include examples of some previous work with ripping GBA sprites, as well as any IM screennames you might have (MSN or AIM). Anyone who is chosen will be contacted by Thursday of next week (August 12).

                      Friends and other webmasters who Max knows he can trust to be responsible beta testers while it's still... unpolished and not very presentable.

                      He's going to have a public beta, so your not missing out on much. The first beta will probably suck anyway <_<.

                          As Neon said, there really isn't anything very important about being a beta tester right now, as it is more like an alpha tester instead of a true beta tester. Their job is basically just to make sure the game works in the general sense and that there are no fatal flaws. Then once we go to a public beta we will start worrying about any and all bugs that crop up.

                              No, PDM, it's alright. I have found two sprite rippers, and I think that should be sufficient for now. However if anyone still approaches me I will happily accept them if they show they are capable.
