We've been receiving a lot of entries for our logo competition -- judging is going to be difficult! Some people have been posting their entries in the comments thread, so have a look if you're interested. If you hadn't heard about the contest yet, see the previous news post for information and prize details. Entries end on the 27th of August.
In the meantime, here's a hint at a sub-project we've been working on that should be released along with SC4.0.
The skin was created for us by past team member Teddy Bergsman Lind. After working on Sven Co-op, Teddy moved into professional game development with Black Widow Games, and is now working on two top titles including Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena.
Something I should have mentioned some time ago is the Sven Co-op Map Database. Functioning as a Wiki, the site is attempting to catalogue the hundreds of available Sven Co-op maps; complete with screenshots, download links, and information for each.
Through a community effort, SC Map DB provides a centralized resource where players can easily find Sven Co-op maps. In doing this, we hope to honor all the hard work and imagination mappers devote to providing us with fun worlds to play in.
We began in March 2008 with very little content, but have already come a long way thanks to the community's help! We aren't done yet, however. Our goal is to make accessible every Sven Co-op map ever made.
See their Contribute page to learn how you can improve this great community resource!
Nice model, good work !
Sven team is still around? I'm happy, but surprised. Are you guys ever going to finish 4.0 and work on Sven source? I think Synergy beat you guys to the punch line... and made it to Steamworks. :O
I doubt svencoop2 is ever going to happen.
Sven co-op 2 has been started, and will continue when sven 4.0 is done.
Which is soon.
I hope.
Also, Synergy isnt really like Sven at all. Obdisidan is way more like Sven. IMO.
Thats good to hear. ;)
Yup.
Wait.... Is that Otis model supposed to be from they hunger, the hl1 mod that was ment to cme on Sven!?
Tell me that's what this is. D:
Obsidian Conflict doesn't get enough love.
I think that "Otis" may have to do with They Hunger Coop.. no?
i miss there is not sven coop for hl2 mod...i still play sven since is best coop mod for eny game ever made:3 cant wait when it gets source.
Sven co-op 2 will never see the light of day and when it does HL3 will be out...
I don't think I have enough irony in me to join that contest, good luck to the winner, though -- go for the gold!
