Sometime last summer, the project file for Sol got corrupted, and I ended up having to start from scratch (sortof...) I've been pulling art assets and stuff out of old archived files and piecing together the game. This is definitely not the first time this has happened (which is why this thing has taken so damn long to finish >:0) I think flash has a problem with large .flas or something because I periodically have to do this really bizarre ritual involving resaving the file onto a flash drive and then copying it back to the computer in order to get the thing to export a .swf, which is really not helpful to my productivity.
The good news is that since last summer I've managed to get a little more than half of the game working again, thanks in no small part to not being at highschool anymore and having basically as much free time as I want. Of course, I spend most of that time just trying to get a .swf exported, but hey, it's better than nothing. I'm starting to seriously think about doing the game in two episodes. It wouldn't be ideal, but at least it would get finished. I really just want to get this thing done, it's been waaay too long.

Well, you're not the only one who has this problem :P Happens to me too. Flash just crashes and the fla gets corrupted along with it.
Stil looking forward to your game though.
