It’s a sad reflection of life, how things change or grind to a halt.
It’s been a long time since I’ve updated this and life has gotten in the way of this. From my point of view, I have been busy at work creating a new domain for our 5 offices. Good news is that the engine has had an update.
the models are still being re-vamped and re-created to keep the framerate high. I am also working on learning C++ so that I can write an effective back end system for the trading.
apart from that, not much else has changed. But it is moving along again 
I have no doubt that it will take at least another year to get a working demo out, and I am also looking to see what else is going on in the world as Microsoft have pretty much killed any chance of a sequel when they sacked the majority of their gaming staff to save costs
