My friend Rob has been pumping out more great tracks. It looks like a huge portion of the game's soundtrack will be original.
I made a couple key game design choices that I had been struggling with. Although I gave up one of the major elements that has inspired me to make the game in the first place, I realize that it is for the better. The game-play is slightly more linear but it's going to make it a much more enjoyable experience for the player.
I've also added weather (rain/snow) to the game. There is a random chance of a thunderstorm, and the wind affects the direction of the rain.
I'll try to post again soon. In the meantime, more screen shots:
