Hello there.
Well, first of all, merry late Christmas and happy late new year.
I wanted to share a few things about the status of the game. I recently purchased a few furniture props that I plan to use to populate the castle, and I am looking into stuff I can use to populate the basements.
The idea is that Lavinia's family is just moving into the castle (and I'm going to come up with an excuse that explains why she's alone in the castle), so I was lucky to find some furniture pack that has covered furniture to give the idea maybe some of the furniture that was in the castle was covered for protection.
I'll be adding furniture to the castle and look more into the "stalker rat" I talked about in the previous update. Now that I'll be adding that, I can also look into using other light sources for the castle, and improving lighting overall.
I also changed the model of the human-rat hybrid that shows up in the chase sequence. This one actually looks more like a rat, although maybe I still need to change it a little bit so it has some human features on the head, and also to make it more menacing looking.
Sorry for going so slow. Lots of things going on, but I'm getting there.
