In the two weeks since I had released ESTkv1.5.3 internally, the Toolkit has received a shitload of usage from Tyler and the rest of the team. Within a few days, Tyler found a list of several bugs/nuances with the new release. We spent the weekend developing side-by-side, breaking the Toolkit while fixing the Toolkit. I wound up resolving all of the issues we found within the first couple of days... However, I was to be having a septoplasty within the next week. We figured with me taking a week off to recover, I could also add some trendy new features that we had both been whiteboarding in time to make the patch release. So in the interest of maintaining our momentum and taking one for the team, I had my surgery and spent the week writing code while high on painkillers. I will affectionately refer to this patch release as the ESTk "Opioid" build. Please don't try this at home, kids...

Alright, I just started on Alfreds sprite and animation, though I was recording the process of the first standing frame I lost the entire video somehow I or it didn't save and I'm really pissed, I'll just record when I work on the animation frames perhaps instead. We'll see how that works out later. Anyhow, I thought I'd show everybody the little sprite, how it looks, right now.
