Indie RPG Updates
Some little tidbits on some indie RPGs currently in development:

* Planewalker Games has an article on Death and Beyond in Tolmira, the world of The Broken Hourglass. It covers the beliefs concerning death in the world, funeral rites, and the state of undeath.

* Soldak Entertainment has posted an article on the various races of Aleria, the land of Depths of Peril. Much of it is background information, as only the barbarians will be in the game itself (at least the first of what may be a series, if Depths of Peril proves successful). They have also posted a new short story entitled, "The Forgotten Cave." Finally, Steven Peeler has also posted a second "sneak peek" over at RPGVault, discussing the role of strategy in the game.

* DrSlinky, community member here, has announced the development of a 2D RPG entitled, "Aegis Road," with some old-school sensibilities (he notes the influence of the Wizardry and Realms of Arkania series) and anime / manga - influenced art style. Details are sketchy as of yet, but hopefully more will be forthcoming soon.

* UPDATE: The indie MMORPG Minions of Mirth has just been updated to version 1.24. The list of changes, fixes, and updates is pretty humongous - check it out here. Most significantly, there's a new PvP / PvE system in place, Pet and Enchanting system updates, and a new Blacksmithing trade skill.
