During the last month we have been doing a TON of work, we have merged with VG Studios (we're still InterWave Studios), we updated our web server, we fixed up our project manager, merged our forums with VGS' old forums, what else did we do?

Oh yeah! We also did a ton of work on Distant Hope too!

We've done some hud concepts, we did an internal playtest of what we have so far (things are looking good), and throughout the development process we're going to be testing the plugin SourceMod's compatbility with Distant Hope to ensure those who wish to run it, can. Along with all this Xanthi (our lead mapper) has been very hard at work at our first map, and it officially has a name! Here are some new screen shots from dh_manhattan!





And, for those of you who've been wondering what some things might be looking like in terms of players, here's a hand/glove concept art.

Hi,

I saw you use the name I made up for a painting I made, which you can find here: http://kymyume.deviantart.com/art/Distant-Hope-36100478

I find it very disturbing that you didn't put my name anywhere, seeing as the copyright belongs to me. I want to at least have my name shown in the credits, or I will have to contact my lawyer...

Grts,
KymYume

lol you don't have a trademark on the term distant hope, you just drew a gay looking furry wannabe. go back to the anime community where you think you're japanese.

Actually we bought rights to 'Distant Hope' back in Jan '06 (which is 7 months before your picture was added).

You have 24 hours breathing space to remove the infringement, or we will be taking legal action.

I guess it will be our lawyers that will be contacting you.

Regards.

As reply to both D3@DM4N and Harimau below, When we have our something representative of what we want our final product that displays gameplay mechanics you'll see videos, screenshots, and descriptions of such, but until we reach that point you'll be seeing concepts, concept models, concept art, UI mock-ups, and development tech demos and development mapping screen shots. So all in all, sit back, and enjoy the ride, I'm assuming you both have our mod set to watch, so you'll be notified when we've added something!

@ hero_kenshin
Actually that was a stipulation placed when someone else posted up that application thing before having the rest of the staff read what was going to be posted. Any modeling applications supported by the Source engine are welcome.
