The game will be worked on, but slowly by slowly,We have very limited time in a day to work on a game. We will have work on it, how ever I can not guarantee it will be out next year, since we are not getting paid to work on this, if we were, this would of been out a long time ago. AI scripting is tough so me as the lead developer, I cannot script them at this time, until we find somebody knowledgeable in GML scripting.
After I get my schooling out the way, and eliminate certain task of my schedule I will have space for this game.
Halo War of the Covenant's Concept of how the game will play out, and what makes the game different from other Halo Games.
List of updates for Halo War of the Covenant! Also let me know what you would like to see in the Demo.
After three whole months of vacation, I am back and ready to start putting up to 4 hours of work a day into this game, and hoping to have a test demo...
Release Date is still to be dated, and I have no clue if I can get a demo out soon.
Not much to show here really, just shows the very basics of switching weapons and shooting them. Controls should be easy to learn.

You have a few good fans tracking the game and constantly commenting and making suggestions, I recommend listening to them and continue development on the game! This could be a big thing for you if you pull it off right!
Well since we are a 2 man army working on this game it could take 2 years before its finished. Than after that we will continue to update it.
Me and my friend are happy to help, i program in Game maker and my friend is a graphic artist
Are you good with programming AI? And can you show me an example of what your friend can draw? Like ask him to sprite a Top Down Elite Halo 3 style.
Sorry sprites are taking forever, but it is hard to make the arms look right. I should have them out by the end of the day, right now I don't have much time to work on them, but later in the day I should.

Sadly the game is dead, until I can find someone else to take this games place, the reason why? Well because I lost all the files I needed for the game my computer basically got wiped out.
Yeah, sure.
^ Sarcasm at it's finest.
Also btw this is not the only game I lost my files. Check this game out:
Gamejolt.com
I was working hard on that.
Yeah ok, many people will be sceptical because this is an excuse a lot of developers use when they are to lazy to continue a game. BTW, why didn't you back up your files on a hard drive/USB? Seems very suspicious.
Well I only have a 2 GB usb and that has all of my pictures on them,as well as sound effects and some scripts. Also I am currently working on a different game, I just don't feel like working on all those Halo sprites right now, and no it was not due to lazyness, because I love working on games and sharing my Ideas. Also I changed my mind about finding someone else I will work on this game again due to the reason that I think my ideas sound better and who knows what someone else will come up with. I will try to get some pictures up tomorrow on the sprites I am working on. :)
Wouldn't you have lost the files of the other game you were working on as well? This also proves my point further that you were to lazy to work on the game, as you have delved into all these little side projects.
You also stated you were no longer working on the sprites, and I quote, "Not due to laziness." What was it due to? This seems to me like a classic case of a Dev with to many big ideas and plans, and then later having nothing to show for it.
I just started this other game project right after I got my windows reinstalled again. This game has been in development for 4 days now. I can email you the game I am working on. Also not working on all those sprites right now is due to the fact that as a 17 year old teen closing in to adult hood has bigger responsibilities at the moment, I don't feel like spending all my time right now working on a crap ton of sprites. I can link you to a video on what the sprites were going to look like, but only a better version. Link: Youtube.com they were gonna look like those only a bit better. Note: That those sprites in the video are created by me. I did state that I am working on a few sprites at the moment to get the project started up again from what I have lost, currently I am only working on two games, that is a game about survival and this Halo game. Happy now?
Its probably best to work on one game at a time, or you will probably become sidetracked.
I actually love to write down my ideas on a notepad or virtual notepad, so that way I don't lose track of what I was planning.
Note: I did say I don't feel like working on all those Halo sprites which I had made, but lost but I am working on a few which are Spartan and Marine sprites as well some weapons. I will turn it into a little test demo where you can test the different grenades and weapons, there will be 8 weapons to test from and 4 grenade types. I might add a Grunt to kill.
