* Play as the Experimental Synthetic Warfare Neohuman AI!
* Run internal functions! Yay!
* Defend the science vessel Von Grun!
* Comes with its own list of colors used! (Black, Light/Dark Green, Light/Dark Blue, Light/Dark Red)
* Thrilling plot. Wheee!

Progress:

Planned:
Thrilling plot - 100%
Graphics - ~75% (There aren't too much)
Puzzles - 100%
Masses of references and interesting acronymes: Yes. (For example: X.S.W.N. can also be read as Xerxes Shodan Wintermute Neuromancer)

Actually done:
Thrilling plot: ~30%
Graphics: ~50%
Puzzles: ~20%
Masses of references and interesting acronymes: Yup.

Finishing date:
ETA is April 26th  :=

It may seem like a very short game now - regarding how much I've done in such a short period of time - but trust me: It won't will be one. (sorry)

-7th of April-
Yay, update! Two new screenshots available... well, okay, one is an updated version of an old one. Also, I've finished the plot outline.

-14th of April-
Another update for today. The game will be quite a bit shorter than originally planned, sorry. But to not make you too angry, there's a new screenshot in the post down there. Okay, it is that room again, but from a different scene this time.

-22nd of April-
I managed to miss most of my deadlines - hooray - so only an incomplete version will be ready for the mAGS competition. Sorry. But anyway, that incomplete version shall be fun! (I hope)

Nice work especially since its only for a comp. Makes my game look all the more terrible :(

Barabas? As in who do we set free?  Jesus Barabbas or Jesus Christ?

As promised. Here's a new screenie. Yes, it is THAT room again, but from a different scene this time. Notice the new label in the upper right edge and the unfriendly-looking red thing.
