GameSpot's Lionheart Designer Diary #1 is online, penned by Reflexive Entertainment's Ion Hardie, offering the debut installment in a new series dedicated to Lionheart, "an off-beat role-playing game that will combine real-time combat, traditional high fantasy, and an alternate version of European history." He introduces himself and his role as co-producer and lead designer of the game, background on their company, the team at work on this project (which includes some help from Black Isle Studios), how they decided to create a game using Fallout's SPECIAL system, where development currently stands, and more. Included are four new screenshots.
