Update: Release 9

eqCy’s alpha period has ended and we are now in beta.
eqCy 9 marks an almost complete re-write of all systems that were in the prototype stage, and are now stable and extensible via a standardized plugin design. All core systems are now plug-and-play modules that can be independently altered, improved, and added to, without needing to re-write huge segments of code.
Media players can now play movies in whatever formats are supported by the platform’s native movie player.
There is now an in-game camera system.
There is now a character customization and saving/loading system.
There are significant underlying technology improvements.
There is a new VR scene.
Literally thousands of minor improvements.

Additional character designs are coming shortly. The Audubonnies were the first ones I converted to the (entirely) new system but additional character bases are coming shortly.
