Most of the dialog is finished. I still need to add some tutorial type dialog. Robbie (http://twitter.com/beta_red) gave me a very nice compliment and said that he laughed out loud in a couple of places. That's more than I could hope for as I don't think I'm a particularly funny writer.
I've done a full play through of the game which revealed that there were a lot more bugs than I had realized. Based on everything I've read about finishing a video game, that shouldn't have surprised me, but it did. I've worked out almost all of them, luckily. But, I know there are more lurking under the surface ready to wrap their sticky tentacles all over TAG and pull it deep into the sea. Speaking of which:
I'm confident that I will have a finished version of the game available this fall. I'm going to have a beta version available for play-testing in a couple weeks. I'm going to set-up a forum so that anyone who tests the game can post their findings and get updated builds, etc.
Tomorrow I'm heading to Florida for a week of sun, fishing and relaxing. As soon as I get back, I'll be ready to push TAG to completion. Thanks for everyone who's been following the development of TAG. You've all been very motivating. If any of you want to play-test the game, leave a comment here or hit me up on Twitter.

Nice! I'm really looking forward to this.
Awesome! I would like to play test!
I've been coming to this blog everyday for like, the past 2 months. I wanna play this game so bad, haha. The art style just really appeals to me for some reason. And not to the mention the game's basis itself. Seems awesome. I'd love to play test if I could. Keep up the good work, it really takes a lot to stick to a project like this for so long. Kudos, my friend.
I want to play this game soooooo muuuuucccch !!

I can't remember if this was mentioned, but will there be a mac version?
Thanks so much for the interest in playtesting everyone. Like I mentioned in the post: I'm going to be out of town for a week. But, once I'm back I'll start getting a beta build ready and get it out to all of you to try.
@Anon: There will not be a mac version, unfortunately. It's going to be windows only.
Bonne continuation ! :)
I'm still interested in playtesting. My email is associated with this blogger account. Thanks!
