EDIT: Leo is working on the game again, guys!
I'm sorry to announce that the new update has been delayed for the foreseeable future.
Leo has been having difficulty creating the update. He initially set September 30 as a deadline to force himself to have it done by then, but he was unable to finish, due to something like writer's block and some personal problems. He would like to finish the update eventually, but in his current state, it will likely take quite a bit of time.
As well, he feels that in general, he has bitten off much more than he can chew with this game, seeing as it has become very large and complicated. Unfortunately, he believes it's unlikely that he will actually be able to make Act II and Act III. The rogue update, when it eventually comes out, is likely to be the end of active development for the game.
I would like to apologize for this on behalf of Leo. You have all been very passionate fans, and should have been informed earlier. In the future, we'll try to keep you posted on any changes to the current situation.
However, as stated before, Leo does still plan to get the update done eventually, just not any time soon. As well, he plans to release an unencrypted version of RTI later (although it's already pitifully easy to unencrypt), so that fans with RPG Maker VX Ace can look into the files. If they think they're up to it, they could even attempt to make their own updates. (Who knows? I may create an awful Lightflame update!) In addition, after the eventual update, Leo will release the plans he had for the future storylines and gameplay, so that you can still get the answers to your questions.
It's unfortunate things have gone this way, but I'd like to offer something as consolation. Here you can download two special save files. Loading these save files will allow you to view the previously unseen flashbacks of Duskpaw and Dewfrost, shedding new light on their characters. It's not quite the major update we'd been looking forward to, but I hope it will ease the disappointment.
(Also, fun fact, but the tenth party member, from ShadowClan, has actually been right there in the debug all along, since Act I was first released. I can't believe nobody found it after nine months.)
Again, I'm sorry to bring you this news, and I'd like to thank you for the continued support you've given to RTI.
