While I chip away at the code for XL, I might as well show off the fruits of another thing I had tinkered with: modding custom music into Bionicle Heroes.

Can it be done?

(Also, Happy New Year)

I know it's completely unintentional, but I swear this is the universe trying to convince me to dig my old handiwork out of retirement and do something with him.

This whole "making a new battle frame" situation does give me an excuse to add some things I had been putting off for far too long.

Pretty safe to say that Possy will be increasing the price of costumes to compensate for this recent development.

Turns out what the game actually needed was for me to take a proper break from development and enough time to realize what I had broken.

(It was the values tied to IDing what foe it'd be.)

It'll likely need more testing, but we're back in buisiness!

Still deciding if it's worth committing to a full rebuild, but I at least figured out a better way to handle the party swapping mechanic.

Still have to address a few tweaks to layering and test some other sidequests, but I think that we're back on track again.

Suppose it's rude to come back doing polls without showing some sort of progress for it.

Yeah, we're doing this.
