Strong bad mod has been dormant for several months; the site has remained where it is, along with the mod, with no progress being made. Therefore, after the failure of the team, and the complete cut of ties from the previous owner and the website's owner, I am contemplating making this mod open source. Hopefully with the help of the community of strong bad lovers out there (I know you guys are out there) we will be able to not only make this mod a great mod that would make Strong bad himself proud but fans of the movies as well.
Therefore I am asking mod db and various news sites to post this link to the forums where the discussion on whether or not people are willing to help once this mod becomes open source. If they aren’t and no one is interested enough in the mod to make these comments, then the mod may never be released at all, and the maps and models that are already done will stay with me and not released at all ever. Why would I do that you ask? Because right now and for the past months there has been little support from the mod community in terms of programming, mapping, and/or modeling and because of this the mod itself has stopped being created.
So what can you do? If you love half life and you love strong bad even more go to this link on our forums, register and try to get this mod released. If you really are a fan of the series then you won’t let this mod go to waste like so many others have in the past. I want strong bad to be released but as of now all there are, are a lot of fans that are asking for a release which they can’t truly get unless a lot more work is done. However, I am willing to make the mod open source if people are willing to give a contribution to help get this mod done. There is very little to be done, mostly coding, some mapping and modeling, but all the characters are done.
If the mod goes open source all models and maps that are done will be open source as well, along with the small amounts of code. Honestly, the mod is far from being complete in terms of coding but in reality with minimal work from some coders it can be done easily and this mod can be released for the world to see on a level unlike any other mod in Strongbadia. So once I again, if you love Strong bad or just good mods go here and vote. Only you, the fans of Strong bad and great modding can save Homestar and his friends. So please, go here and vote on what you want to do. You will make the difference. Strongbadmod.com
