I think he hit that point long ago.

There are a couple things outside of my control at the moment, so of course I'm using this time to keep working. Sorry!

All I ask is you keep us updated when you have time.

And make it good. That's probably also important.

there should be an option for non-lethal dispersion of enemy starships in the vicinity using audiovisual holoprojections and stupidly loud speakers

Uhh...can someone explain what just happened? Did the music cause the evil OverLady to have a revelation and turn to peace or something? Also what the hell is even the context for giant mechs with guitar-playing pilots? Are they like Noise Marines, but not evil?

Ok, trying to keep it simple...

Nekki Basara (the rocker dude) is a crazy, stubborn, self-absorbed pacifist who thinks everyone should stop fighting and just listen to his music. The local defense military find his antics of flying into active warzones and playing protest music extremely annoying to say the least. Evil Overlady is one of the leaders of the alien invaders leading a bunch of mind-controlled minions who are attacking the good guy's fleet to harvest their souls. She's also a vampire of sort who feeds off the life energy of people, called Spiritua. Rocker Dude's music creates shittons of this "Spiritua" energy out of seemingly nowhere and this freaks the alien vampire leaders out.

As for the customized transforming robot jet planes with guitar hero controls they've got, blame the keyboardist, who is ex-military and extremely well connected. When the alien invaders refuse to listen to Rocker Dude's songs, he decides to MAKE them listen as you can see, via a huge rear end missile with a massive speaker system as a warhead.

Basically...

Macross is that 4X game you played once where the enemy razed all your colonies, killed all your ships, and began bombarding your home planet. You hit end turn and the game ends, only for you to be greeted with "Congratulations! You win! Cultural victory!"

I'm just glad the song played wasn't loving Planet Dance, I got so tired of that song the first half of the show.
