Hi everyone, Happy new year! After a much needed holiday (well, only four of us actually had one, the rest continued working), we're back on track on finishing Herald Book I & II for Q1 2017. Everything's coming together - just a quick scope of what still needs to be done: Herald has quite a lot of voice acting, about +3000 lines, - more than any game any of us (or maybe even any Dutch indie developer ever) has experience with. Going through all the recordings, filtering and cutting through the bits we need and placing them all in the game, is no easy task. We're about half way there, and expect to be finished with this soon.
Development-wise we're adding some final tidbits, like end credits, while finishing some technically complex scenes from the game. Art-wise everything's done - and our three art members are currently adding some extra touches, fixes and effects to areas we'd like to improve.
  Once all this is finished, we'd probably like to add some extra time for performance improvements and some more polish, as we ramp up the marketing to overdrive. The reason we haven't specified a specific release date yet is because we want to be as certain as possible that we can deliver you a quality experience once Herald releases. Herald is our first title, and we want to give it the best we've got. The Chinese zodiac marks this as the year of the fire rooster - a year which, according to predictions, should offer a great challenge to people born in rooster years and (we assume) roosters in general.
What a coincidence. Until then, expect to be hearing from us. ;) Cheers, The Wispfire Team.
