Is this mod still active?

Edit: OK, reply system isn't working. This is in response to Zacker_lvldsnr and BurningPet above.

You're wrong.

Now that that's out of the way, I'll tell you why.
Supergiant Games did all of their own funding, marketing etc. They only went through WB to get them onto different platforms. The same kind of thing applies to Magicka (though Paradox took up the funding after Magicka was initially funded out of the pockets of its own developers). Funding, development, marketing - that's the key to being indie; especially the funding. Hell, you could technically call Valve the publisher for some of these, since they're published on Steam.

Ugh. Why didn't it post as a reply? How do I delete this?

Overgrowth won the players choice award already...

Dungeon Deities, King Arthur's Gold and To The Moon interest me.

"Be an ***. Become a legend."
Hahaha... that is a fantastic tagline, and really quite accurate as it applies to video games.

Just..... wow.

4 first-person shooters, and one that isn't but has a modern warfare setting.

Am I the only one that thinks that's sad?

"Fourth" Place. Just because it's "forty" and not "fourty", doesn't mean it applies anywhere else. See "fourteen". I'm just saying.

Overgrowth's top spot is well-deserved. I'm also very looking forward to Natural Selection 2. The others look interesting and I will have to check them out.

Hahaha, what dedication.

Incredible.

This needs to be revived!!!

Lol... "in the future, survival of the fittest is not a theory" - is that a shot at the first true RTS-FPS hybrid, Natural Selection?

Looks great though.

Ouch.

ah right, and just so you know, progress IS getting done, they're just being very careful about releasing media, particularly when it comes to art direction or game design decisions. updates on the technical side just happen to be the 'safest'.

how you know there is progress: follow their twitter for most recent updates - Twitter.com - the team updates it very often.
and there's a discussion thread for the twitter updates here Unknownworlds.com so register if you wanna chime in.

hey genius. it's about the game engine. you need a game engine to make a game.
...have you made the connection yet?

0 AD would get my vote.

Oh god, do I see more elves?

Why Elves?

Who's the guy that does the voice-over/narration? 'cause I gotta say, he does a great job.

hmm, really only it's the helmet that seems derivative of halo. the first thing that comes to mind when you see those helmets is halo. and yet, if you look at them side-by-side there are actually plenty of differences.

wow those are great animations.

so what exactly is this project you're doing?

that is, apart from a sort-of.. 'glue' to bind your team together, which is what i understood from your announcement.

Well said.

lol.

lol xD

aww, no scythians? :(

what about the vandals and alans, for part 2? a king geiseric campaign would be pretty cool. I mean, he managed to raise a pretty insignificant tribe to a major power that contested with the western roman empire for the mediterranean. If that isn't campaign material, I don't know what is.

Wow, that wallpaper is amazing, just how close you've managed to make it to the Team7 photo, using your own actual models. That really is great quality.

i like.

I've gotta say I *like* the clean look. I thought it was part of your aesthetic style, with your white, almost plastic, player characters for instance, or your sorta 'snow' blue-white colour scheme. I think it's actually sorta refreshing.
