The goal of this game is to produce a remake of the classic game Hardwar that will be operating system independent. The aim is to stay as close to the original with a few minor changes while trying to keep the Hardwar world as dynamic and re-playable as possible.

Not much coding got done this week as I spent time to work on the art side of things. I began by doing some quick drawings in Inkscape of the game's main menu. I looked at many different game menus getting ideas on how to make my own. In the end I came up with something that attempted to blend in with the colour scheme we already have for our loading screen.

It's still in a pretty rough state and I have uploaded the SVG images in case anyone wants to have a go at making something better.

Just start working on what you feel like doing. There is no need to check if anyone is already working on something, just go right ahead and post what you have.

Lots of things need doing, but if you feel like you can't directly contribute then just discussing the game in our forums is enough.

Our forums are here: Forum.hardwar.org

Hardwar is an old game which came out in 1998. If you search wikipedia for "Hardwar" you can find an entry about the game there.

Problem is the game company that made it went bankrupt. I've been talking to the CEO and programmer of the old company to get the source code however because of legal problems it's impossible to release it. Instead we're remaking the game, which is what this project is all about.
