A few weeks ago, Fearyourself announced that he had nearly finished working on implementing transportation (of all sorts) in his Ultima-inspired tile-based RPG game engine, Back to Roots. He even posted a pair of videos to demonstrate his progress:

Support for multiple transports and hull damage came next:

This evidently required him to re-think how he had been handling object implementations in the game, at least somewhat.

Just after the start of September, he announced that transportation was fully implemented, and a week later posted another video demonstrating how the engine handles sea monsters, pirates, and whatever else the game throws at you in the way of encounters:

Most recently, he has been working on fixing the game’s renderer, and of course has posted one more video demonstrate the improvement in how the game looks with the changes he has made:

As usual, I’m just floored by the pace Fearyourself is able to maintain when working on Back to Roots. I am very much looking forward to playing the engine’s tech demo, whenever it gets released.
