The Spirit Engine 2

The sequel to The Spirit Engine, now with less spirits and more aliens in a steampunk setting!

To do:

  • Extract all unused graphics.
  • Gather footage of unused content.
  • Upload all earlier music files (Impulse Tracker modules) into .ogg for browser listening. There's a lot of music written initially in modules before it was re-written entirely with VSTs.

Unused Items#

Almost all the items were cut for lack of space in the shops. I didn't want to have to create more shop-keepers or change the UI to allow more items! -Mark Pay
