MessiahPress has posted a short Q&A with Shiny's Scott Herrington talking about what TeamEgo has been up to lately in developing their upcoming third-person action game starring Bob the Cherub, Messiah. The update offers some new character shots in addition to the new info. Here's a quote:

Tons more character animation is going into the game then we had originally thought of. It just seems to keep piling up. This is the last time we make a game so flexible! Every character has to work in just about every scene/environment in the game - and that means a truckload of animation for each.

Most of the placeholder sfx are in the game, the full list has been turned over to Tommy for the 'official' effects.

AGP code is being worked on so that we don't have to reduce textures at all. People with AGP machines are going to have a truly stunning looking version of the game when the code is complete.
