lol, no offense, but I havn't seen a1k0n to be the hint dropping kind - he's making an action video game, not a master puzzle insanely difficult RPG.

Distribution is strictly prohibited!

The horns on the vulture look a bit odd, the log in screen looks good, too bad it runs at 1.1 fps.

:P

It's a mammoth! Love the alien fighter. The one that's not a Furie.

mmmm external thingies on the atlas.

<sigh>. How on earth did you find that stuff?

The vulture was originally called "The Tazer" because it had the horns and looked like.. a tazer.. kinda. The vulture in the game right now is maybe the.. 3rd version of it?

The atlas currently in the game is the second version (that's my one remaining graphical contribution, aside from the ice and other minor randomness). The first one had the separate engines and winglets. I've been meaning to do a 3rd version at some point.

The old login screen you guys see is actually entirely by me. But, it was a gross ripoff of StarCraft, really :). It looked neat at the time, and was easy to do, but it was discarded when everything was redone (by Waylon).

Whenever people find old screenshots of the game with old content (on Waylon's site, or whatever), they always ask "why isn't this in the game!?@#". Truth is, some of that stuff looks kinda cool in the screenshots, but wouldn't be so hot in game. The textures were really low resolution, the ships were on the order of 200 polies or less. They really aren't anywhere near up to part with the content we make now, so they've been phased out.
