If you follow the Nuvie changelog, you’ll have noticed that over the last few days, Eric and his team have logged several bits of progress concerning getting Martian Dreams working in the engine:

2014-05-21 Eric Fry r1945
* Work on present day lab sequence for MD.

2014-05-18 Eric Fry r1944
* Added text_load() script function to load MD intro text
* Added sprite.text_align_centre boolean to allow for centred / wrapped
text in the MD intros
* Tightened up the timings on the first MD intro sequence.
* Started work on the MD “Run Introduction” sequence.
* Added Font::getCharHeight() method.

Here’s hoping that in the not-too-distant future, we’ll all get the chance to play through, at minimum, the opening sequence of the game using all the awesome updates that Nuvie brings to its engine.
