<A href="http://freedroid.sourceforge.net/">FreeDroid</a> has updated with the progress done on the game since last week. They do this every week, I just don't always remember to check it! But anyway, here's a bit on the progress:
<br>
<br>
<ul><li>New and more conference furniture thanks to basse.</li><li>Fixed bugs in Sorenson, Kevin and Dixon dialogs.</li><li>New signposts thanks to Basse.</li><li>New wall types thanks to Basse.</li><li>Crystal caverns almost finished, thanks to Simon.</li><li>Game balancing: Droids with ranges weapons now run away less, enemies give less light.</li><li>New feature: 't' key can be used to toggle the walls transparent to better see the Tux and places hidden by walls, thanks to Simon.</li><li>3dcafe models replaced with our own stuff, such that the game and all it's art are truly 'free' as in Freedom.</li><li>Lots of other changes, but the auto-generated changelog is damaged and no notifications generated. Will be back up next week hopefully...</li></ul>

<b>Basse</b> seems to be a one man art-crankin' machine, doesn't he?

Heh, that reminds me, I'm supposed to post the new changelog today :) The cvslog is back up now, but most of the week is down memory drain. But at least there's something: the IRC channel for our group #freedroid at irc.freenode.net is finally being used. I knew this DSL connection was good for something :) See ya, jp.

But we'll still be using Tux? Why not a floating, oppresive Bill Gates head for the windows version instead?

Actually I thought we might use the cute green dragon from the KDE project as the first additional character model. Basse has modeled that one some ages ago for a completely different purpose, so it wouldn't involve too much work. But as the project is completely open, anybody with some skill in Blender (free!) can put in his/her own stuff and render it all over night, or even without skill, you can still make a green blob with purple dots or something :)
