1.3.8 is in beta! New narrator (same old Caliban tho ;) and smoother framerate

Hi folks - it's been a long time since we posted an update, but we're back. This version at last brings in new narration for the introductory scenes. JB Blanc is a brilliant voice actor, and has recorded a new opening.

addedHi folks - it's been a long time since we posted an update, but we're back. This version at last brings in new narration for the introductory scenes. JB Blanc is a brilliant voice actor, and has recorded a new opening. Thanks JB. That opening is also a little more streamlined. There's likewise a little bit of new interactivity in scene 2. We've also added new subtitles available in French, mon dieu! With any luck we'll be able to show the work over there in the near future. There are also some substantial efficiency improvements in the catacombs, so with any luck, we'll stick to a solid 90fps for most/all of you. Our little story has continued to get some attention at film festivals, and the occasional mention in the press. Enough to encourage us to make an iOS version of the project, too. Look for it on the App Store, if you want Caliban in your pocket. All of this continues to be with an eye on getting the larger project made. With every festival, or article, or (quite literally) every good review, I think we take meaningful steps to getting The Abbot's Book brought to life someday. It's a long, slow, grass roots process, but it remains rewarding. Anyway, I hope you like the new work. I think it's a meaningful step towards the full vision. As always, please let us know if you have any problems, thoughts, or suggestions. Thanks Mike
