Daikatana Progress

The Ion Storm Daily Informant has a run-down of who is doing what on Daikatana as the game is (hopefully) getting close to completion. Most everyone on the team uses the phrase 'finishing up' so that is good news. It's been a long time coming and those screenshots from 1997 are getting a bit old. :)

“Spit, polish, rinse, repeat... I'm finishing up lots of minor touches on a couple of levels, stomping bugs wherever they stick their cursed heads out, and working with Luke on an Episode 2 CTF level.
