![]() ![]() ![]() Naaah, don't count on that: as said in the press release, the offer ends on January 6th. You know, we jumped through hoops to produce a professional, physical product, so we're not exactly happy with the increase of sales of the digital version with respect to that of the boxed one. Moreover, we'd really like to see BOH spreading in poorer countries ![]() So, this is definitely the best time to make such a big offer. |

A bit offtopic, but i fount on os4depot your game called "universus-demo.lha" that is very, very nice ! It's much-much better by look if compare with BOH ! Graphics are very-very stilsh and remind me old ChaosEngine graphics, but in modern look. Have you any plans to release the final/full version ? As far as i see, there is only sounds/music are missing ? I can help you with founding music-authors for that game (if you in interest). |

Graphics are very-very stilsh and remind me old ChaosEngine graphics, but in modern look. Frankly, I couldn't disagree more: the in-game graphics totally suck! They're just placeholders and mix different styles (as they are the result of heavy experimentation by me). BTW: most of the background graphics of one of the scenarios *are* ripped from The Chaos Engine ![]() Quote: Have you any plans to release the final/full version ? As far as i see, there is only sounds/music are missing ? Actually, also proper levels and (more) spaceship components are missing. Basically, the engine was 90% done, but the rest was missing. Quote: I can help you with founding music-authors for that game (if you in interest). Thanks, but the project is dead. Back in 2006 I badly needed collaborators (namely, level designers and pixellers), but I couldn't find any, so I had to give up - and, no, I won't resurrect that project. For more information, please go to uniVERSUS' website. |

Glad you liked it. That game had lots of potential. BTW: since it's the second time uniVERSUS got mentioned lately, earlier today I have uploaded a recompiled version that makes use of libraries which I have improved since the previous release. |

Yep, i see it already on os4depot :) Sadly that project is dead, looks like there is only need music and sounds + little modification of levels to be a full-ready product.. |

You're severely underestimating the amount of work missing: * all in-game graphics and better cutscenes; * all levels; * more spaceship components; * all sounds; * music; * some more work on the code. In a nutshell, months of work. |
