The forum will have some maintenance done in the next couple of months. We have also made a decision concerning AI art in the art section.


Please see this post for more details.

PLEASE READ: Project is canceled.

Due to the fact that there just isn't enough manpower to work on this project, I'm afraid it has been officially canceled.

There were a number of team members, all of whom have come and gone.

There was a time when I was unemployed and had the time to rapidly advance this game's programming and design.

There is just no time in my life for something like this, not by myself. The real world just caught up to this one.  The server will not be started back up and no more advancements to this game will be appearing.

Thank you for reading and for all your support.

Sorry about that Tim, it would've been quite an awesome game if we could have gotten it further... But I agree that we were missing some vital members in our team and free time is not our best friend these days.

That it would have. Ah well, at least we tried and we got to have some fun impressing both others and ourselves in the process. :p

It was a really big project to take up. I've been messing around with 3D game-making and I can say that it is not even remotely easy as people think. You have to be 100% dedicated and have a LOT of free time. Regardless, maybe some time down the road you'll be able to get some members together again and start this back up. Who knows? :p

I would have liked to help, but I wasn't able to find a Blender learning source that was helpful. I did just now though and I could take it at anytime. But even if I do learn it and can do 3D models and animation I don't think that'll be enough to bring this project back up. And besides it's already canceled which is a shame but understandable. Just makes me wish I worked harder to learn Blender.

Man, this is really too bad.  I wish I had had the time to help ya with this Action.  I'm not a bad programmer if I do say so myself.  But unfortunately I didn't have the time then and I still don't have the time now to work on a project as massive as this.  It is quite the challenge, creating a video game from the ground up.  I just wish I had time to devote to something like this. :cry

It's to bad, but I can see why, you being way to busy and the staff being to small, for a fan project.  A game like this is complicated to make, let alone maintain.

If only I really got into programming a few years earlier. I'm in college right now for a Bachelors in Computer Science, but I'm still kind of early in school, and I don't know that much yet.

Oh well. I'm sure it was fun while it lasted. :)

Well, maybe someday, this project will rise again.

But until then, it was good run.
