Don't worry, I'm not dead - I am in fact coming to the end of my final year at university (I've got just under 2 weeks to go now) so I'll have plenty of time to get on with Steve 3 very soon. While I've been doing my dissertation (which is thankfully finished now) and revising, I have actually been able to get some more done, so production on the episode isn't at a complete stand-still. Still, there's quite a bit left to do, so I'm just gonna keep going at it until it's finished.

As a reminder, keep in mind the finished cartoon will represent roughly 3-5 months worth of work, rather than roughly 21 months which is how long it's been since Steve 2 came out. I'm certainly extremely pleased with how the cartoon looks and it is undeniably miles in advance of the first two, but I'm sure I could have made something even better if I had two years of completely commitment-free time to do so; unfortunately this never happens in that crazy thing called real life.

Anyway, thanks for all your continued support, I'm just unbelievably grateful that the last episode came out in August 2006 and yet many of you are still e-mailing me about the series and asking me about the third episode. You're awesome! Also, here's a picture of Jimmy's cubicle:
