future projects...
« on: December 15, 2005, 06:42:59 pm »
I was just wondering, after precursors, will GNE keep making games?  And if so, are there any specifics on what currently?

Most Certainly we will. There will be a sequl to precursors, I can assure you of that. Now, as far as the other ones we'll work on, I'm not really sure. I would like to see Contingencyplan's Tears of Thallis revisted, and possibly a couple other ideas I've had. (I would like to get permission to do some StarTrek and StarWars games. I waould love to revisit X-Wing or Tie-Fighter.) There's a host of remakes we would like to do... like Total Anihilation, Terminal Velocity, Full Throttle, and possible a few Babylon 5 games.

Actually, this brings up a nice point. While Precursors is a really big project, I would like to work on a small project; something limited in scope, able to be completed in  a maximum of a year, and then released. I will write another post on it...

Talking about a remake of TA, there's already one in progress - TA Spring. They're even releasing their code under the GPL. If we decide to do a TA remake, we'd definitely want to talk to these guys...

Hell, we might want to talk to them anyways, if for no other reason than getting to know them.

Hmm.. Possibly. I dunno, That's more Dave's obsession.

Well, Total Annihilation was one of the best games ever made. That's my view, anyways.
