Not much progress lately, last days were spent mostly on marketing. As a result, Prophour23 appeared in a few places and more people learned about the game. I prepared a press kit as well.
I also put the game on Steam Greenlight and would appreciate your votes!

Vote on Greenlight

Thanks!

Thanks for your help, Prophour23 just got greenlit!
Now I just need to finish the game.

Misread that as 'no need to finish the game' - but then realised you were talking about Greenlight rather than Kickstarter 

Well, congratulations and good luck getting it done!

Thanks! I'm actually relieved that I don't need to bother about Greenlight anymore, it was quite involving (try to get some work done while refreshing the stats page every 10 secs! ). I can't imagine myself doing a Kickstarter campaign, that would be even more stressful.

This weekend I worked on the title screen:

A week ago my computer stopped working (beware of thunderstorms, guys!). I was unable to even turn it on... I spent two days digging inside and it turned out that my motherboard and hdd died. Not that bad! I was afraid I'd have to replace all of the parts, which would be a financial problem (especially since I don't want to run any preorders nor a Kickstarter campaign). I bought and installed a new motherboard, reinstalled Windows (sigh...) and I'm ready to work!
Fortunately I had quite recent backups, I lost just an evening's worth of work on Prophour23.
The bad part is that I made almost no progress this week.
I just started to work on a proper main menu screen, here's a sneak peek:

Just looking through the visuals made me gasp in real life!    This such an impressive, unique idea!

I'm working hard on Prophour23 and I can see the finish line now. Not much left! The game's about 95% done. I need to finish the final scene and I'm waiting for one more music track - and that's it!
I'm also looking into integrating Steamworks features that would make sense in Prophour23. I like Achievements and Steam Cloud, so these will be probably implemented.

I made the store page visible, so you can add it to your wishlist (if you wish ) and share:
