Nothing major to report, obviously you can only get through area 7. This was primarily bug fixes, especially in the dialogue after my NPC overhaul broke everything. Humans, animals, and trees have all been fixed and should be working just as well as they were before, but with 17% more efficiency! Or maybe not, since they now have random movement cycles and aren't just standing around like statues 
The humans and animals do. The trees don't move. That would be weird. The elders stay in place, too.
I did not get around to implementing attacks. It really wasn't a priority for this release. There are a couple spiders running around, but they really aren't too bad except at ultra-close, practically-stepping-on-them range.
Otherwise, this was a very minor patch release to get me back in the game so-to-speak after a bad summer.
Next up
Doing some designing of the main village, mostly so I can get some connections in and get the next part of the opening cutscenes roughed in.
Ah, yes, Grandpa and Grandma's old farmhouse, with a million rooms, basement full of mason jars, and the old '57 Chevy in the garage 
I mean, not my Gramma and Grampa, but someone's, right?
Battle State Machine is working 
Player chooses what to do, enemies choose what to do, and they even have variable rates of attack/defend/flee. Next step will be to actually start dealing damage

This game has gone through so many iterations it's not even funny anymore
Oh no! Jelly blobs of doom! 
They're only supposed to be the size of a mini-yux 
But doesn't he look so much more prepared for adventure? 
And yes, she is carrying a deer foot staff, modeled after one hanging in our house 
Here's the last two attacks for Augusto! First we have a spinning charge, then a foot claw swipe if you get too close.
With exception of some minor odds and ends, the home interior sheet is finished, which means I can start on all the levels. The next house (level 9) is an old farmhouse, the kind that had a bazillion rooms
