That's awesome! Who did you get to do the voicework for the rabbit guard? Is it stock stuff you downloaded online... or is it David??

ZOMG! Easter Egg Idea --> Place a rabbit in the game that's David!! Hr can be ridiculously overpowered and talk to the player while he's beating him up!

I don't think he's the one who needs to suck it up.

I think that for the wolves you should actually blend wolf sounds/growls over traditional voice acting. That might achieve a nice effect.. i mean, i dont think you would be intimidated by a rabbit squeaking as it attempted to punch me in the face. Obviously wolves are much bigger than rabbits, so they should sound more intimidating as well :]

Create multiple 2D image layers, and pan/zoom them around to create the appearence of 3D movement.

There better be one that sounds like Peppy from Star Fox (and/or allow us to import our own enemy/friendly sounds).

I noticed that Wolfire didn't exactly specified a "recommended" system requirements to handle alpha... For some reason I think until it is optimized, the requirements are a bit higher than you would think.
