The future is not dead, it's supra! 20:29h   08.03.2008

When we are done removing the death from Deathball, everything will be supra, like here:

The die and respawn element will be removed from the game as well. Instead you will be kicked around and lie on the ground for a moment or something like that.
These are plans for when we go stand alone. Questions about it are still useless, trust me. :P

Great to see some life again, it was getting a bit dusty. Still, the spiders seemed to like it. :D

It would be good if the keepers had to get up from a dive (albeit quicker), like the other players.

Anyway, hopefully I'll see it on the shelves one day. Would be very cool. :)

It depressed me to see the newssite all gray :P

Getting up after a dive would be such a pain in the ass, trust me, I better not get that idea.

"These are plans for when we go stand alone".

WHEN we go stand alone? How exciting...

I'm still checking back here every so often... I'd forgotten how blue these news posts could be :D

I'm hungry for information, feed me more!

It's great ! I would like to see it standalone ... but on which engine ? Unreal Engine 2.5 is not going opensource anytime soon...

Forget Epic with their stuff. Look how much they charge and compare the quality with open source engines (ogre3d or gamebryo). It's a joke, really.

You get a lot more than just an engine with Epic.

Ok, you get us the money!
It's not like we have a name like Blizzard or something. We need to start with what we can get. ;)
When we sold some million copies, we can start thinking bigger.

Heh. Of course I wouldn't expect you to be able to afford it (yet). x)

Blizzard? Pff. In a couple of years you'll be the next Ion Storm! ;)

The next what?

Warren Spector? John Romero? Tom Hall? Doesn't ring a bell? :shakeshead: :D

Ah, you mean the mobile phone game producer elite.

Indeed. :D

What about now? Are questions still useless? :p

( Double post ) About a year later ( even though we "chatted" on Youtube some months ago :P ), what' s up with this santdalone stuff ?

I'd be surprised if anything has happened.
