Thank you for expressing interest in TMC..
If you are..
You are, aren't you?

Anyway, this is the first batch of WIP screenies for your enjoyment. View!

Plus a lovely banner for you.

As I have to put this for 'legal reasons', the Bonk font family caboodle used in the banner is by a chap called Rolf Schroeder. I think. Oh, and the images are on www.imageshack.us . You go there.

And for the record: You can't pick up the blocks in the pictures. So the game isn't a straight rip-off of LiCS. Please bear that in mind

First impression: Looks exactly like Lyle in Cube sector! Hope the project goes well for you!

Thanks!

Yes, it is.. inspired by LiCS. LiCS is an excellent game. Bogo should be Knighted.

Woah! Thanks!

Yeah, it's handmade. He's a robot chap who is - or at least will be - a boss in TMC.

Again, thanks

Yeah, after I played LiCS I thought, "Hmm.. would I stand a chance of finishing a game if I didn't spend weeks making super-mega graphics with 'wooshyness'?" and so the idea of TMC was born: make a game inspired by LiCS but make it not a ripoff.

The game also contains some elements of Knytt Stories-type gameplay. Only to a tiny extent though, for instance you can't do things like climb walls like you can in Knytt Stories. Nifflas is a God.
