From the official forum (http://www.cagames.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=891&highlight2=)

Starting tomorrow, Cryptic Allusion (namely, me) will be posting a screenshot of an unseen, newly artisted (Yay! I made up a word) level of Donk! We'll finish off the the stint of sweet posts on the first of January and add another special something that I'll be putting together over the week and a half ahead of us.

Let's hope what I’m planning actually works out ^_^, but I'm sure you'll all enjoy the new screenshots at the very least!

Now for a slight bit of bad news: as you may have guessed, we've once again underestimated the amount of work and time this project would consume. We're still working like crazy people, but I'm not going to announce another 'estimated release date' for Donk until I know for sure that we're going to be able to meet it. It really shouldn't be too much farther into the future, but I refuse to disappoint everyone yet again (after this time of course) by missing a release date. Truthfully, it pains me to have to write something like that, but we can't let Donk get out there and be a poor version of what is supposed to be a great platformer. Thank you for your understanding, or your need to kick us square in our nether regions...at least you're being honest! ^_^

I'll end with a positive note: Cryptic Allusion WILL release this game on Dreamcast in the not-so-distant future. We've already got pre-orders! We promise to release it! Plus, I'm going to try to get a comparative screenshot at some point tonight as an early bonus...just so you can see the difference between the two sets of graphics.
