My Name is Nico, I'm living in Hamburg/Germany. I want to wish you the best for your Project. We are working on our own Loom-FanGame too, but completely different, we are continuing the Story of Bobbin instead of going the (original) way of Rusty Nailbender.
I like the retro-style of your project, mabye You'll come up with "fold" too?

I am doing the part of coding and scripting, we are using the Wintermute Engine for our Game, which is 1280x800 hires.
Sincerly,
Spellbreaker
