So yeah. First off, I guess I owe quite a few people an apology. The soundtrack is taking way longer than it should have due to situations out of our control. While -that- may not have been directly my fault, what -was- my fault was being overly optimistic in how much time we could tackle our goals with the soundtrack in.

Sonic BTS and ATS have been a little bit of an anomaly in fan gaming (and the game industry in general) just by how much resources are put into the soundtrack compared to the rest of the game. For all of us working on it, it's portfolio work - something to be able to show off, for posterity, etc. We all knew that it was pretty disproportionate going in - One guy doing an entire fan-game, then 4 or 7 people working on the soundtrack? Not to mention we're applying a whole slew of different modern genres to what's essentially a 16-bit retro throwback of a game.

LakeFeperd has every right to be upset with how far this has been pushed back. Although there's been a lot of hype around ATS and its soundtrack both individually and in tandem, I'd have to admit in a moment of sheer humility that he'd probably have been able to release the game as-is, with all the temporary music like in the SAGE demo, and it'd have been an absolute blast (and it is; I've played it, obviously).

Having his work (which has been pretty much done for months now) held back by us bozos is pretty much something I have to apologize for. Don't get me wrong; this kind of delay obviously wouldn't happen if this had been a commercial undertaking (e.g. we weren't doing this in our free time while finishing college/moving/getting married/dying/whatever) and I'd been able to schedule things a lot more generously, but that being said I guess what I -did- do wrong was, like I said, underestimate the time to pull everything that we'd planned off properly and set up false expectations for not only LakeFeperd, fans looking forward to the game, but myself and the rest of the team.

I do feel that sticking by our guns and seeing this through would be the best course of action. We're in the final lap now, and as much as I am scared of throwing deadlines out now, I daresay we'll be completely wrapped up within the next two weeks, plus a few days for polish/testing and the fangame would be released.

Soapbox aside, here's Storm Station 1. You might recognize the lick at the start - it was part of Arcane Altitude 2, and is my little throwback to the final zone of the previous game.
