September 30th.
That's when Aeon is released, and when I hope to have it finished by. If it's not finished - and I don't see why it shouldn't be - then I'll simply work to finish it post-release. I figured I'd set a date because a) it gives me something to work towards and means I can't keep putting off the more 'boring' bits of the skin, and b) I don't want this dragging on so long that expectations get out of hand. People assume that when something takes ages, it's going to be amazing, which isn't always true of passion projects being done in someone's spare time.
I'm also taking donations now. This is because I started Aeon before Christmas during a period when work had dried up. That's not the case now and won't be for the foreseeable future, which means I'm going to have to turn down a few opportunities to ensure this gets finished. Donating doesn't mean you get to decide features or cosmetic changes, but I will recognise donations as a whole by adding music video support, and making PVR a priority feature to add after release. Donations will also go towards commissioning someone to do a proper Aeon logo, as I'm not the man for that.
Donation link is in the OP, where I'll also cut-and-paste this.
