Just to let everyone know:

Leaping Lizard Software is currently looking for testers for closed alpha testing of the upcoming multiplayer-only Source engine FPS, Deep 6 (http://www.deep6game.com)


Taking a cue from the pulp comics of the 1940s and 50s, Deep 6 takes players into a world submerged ...

Grendel you know damn well that this project is fake.

And expect no one to be there, since we are contracted over the internet.

Heh, one of the most fun things to do imho is to go through the moddb that lists mods for all sorts of games.

you see these games with STELLAR art. Those are the ones you want to click, because usually they are 10-15% code complete, either have a programmer who works once a week or no programmer at ...

Don't lose the momentum here...can we add "tri-chording" to these sound bytes? 8)

Yep. Sorry I can't post more, I just had that set as my current desktop and thought it was fun. I probably broke my NDA but isn't that what rules are for?

Most of you know the capabilities of the Source engine, so ...

It's not sponsored by Valve, just published on Steam.

And I receive a paycheck every two weeks to work on it.
And yes, five months... as was stated. Gameplay and code is almost complete, now art assets have to catch up.

Yeah unfortunately we develop things the right way... proven gameplay and code first, art second.

We got hired to make Orion Wing. Well sort of. We're all getting paid to make a 6DoF shooter on the Source engine now. It's been a blast.

There's a bunch of trip photos from our ventures to Valve and ...

For the game *we* are developing...

Here's a screenshot:




And um... yeah.

We have a publisher and a full team and we plan on shipping in 5 months. That is all.

Oh and you can read more @

That is all.
I think.

Textured Helix updated on ModDB

If you're wanting to follow the mod, the best place is the ModDB, it's easy to update and where i've been putting most everything.

It'll work *only* on Source. Half-Life 2. And for anyone wanting to pick it up for this, I think it's on the cheap @ www.steampowered.com

Helix WIP

Our Next Fighter, the Helix

Expect some screenshots soon of a WIP Nirvbox remake

... as well as an updated website, full news post and announcement of new team members, concept work, models in progress, etc.

it just goes on and on and on

I'm only going to track down the maps that are incredibly original.

Maps such as nirvbox to me just appear to be a series of hallways.

Half-Life 2's editor is called "Hammer". There are a wealth of tutorials available on how to map for HL2. The only real changes would of course be entities, as the Omega Wing Zero entities have not been developed yet. (Weaponry, pickups, etc.)

You can get Hammer from

And I know it's called "Pyro" but we're renaming it.

In fact, two things for you guys:

1. Help rename our flagship er... ship.
2. If you could have any of your favorite Descent 3 maps revisited in Omega Wing, what would they be?

oddly enough it was the cockpit, ship size never changed.

Well, I thought it was too big so i forced him to redesign it...
