The future is now! How often have you said to your close friends, "Well, I would LIKE to make up a morphing mecha magical girl berserker, but it's just too much trouble. I guess I have no choice but to play the same old boring 11-levels-of-combat-mastery-kensin-ripoff character that I always do."

Check out the site - they make the sources available as well - I'm going to download the application and take a look. Very cool looking!
