And he hasn't given us one. Of course, we have an answer that's pretty clearly not a yes, so I don't see what the point of continuing this is.

I'm guessing that the sequel will be announced some time after the first one is fixed. Posted Image

He had SIX YEARS to do that! Why does he sit idle? If he won't make a new Cythera (or at least fix the current one)we will have to take the Delver game engine from him.

Need I rant more?

I doubt very much that Glenn's idle. He has a real job apart from writing games, you know.

That raises an interesting issue: What does Glenn really do?

Are you sure we should be prying into the life of Glenn? You never know what we would find in there...

If I had to take a guess, I'd probably go with something interesting, like packaging salmon? Posted Image

And it seems Glenn does not as much promise a sequel (big difference between thinking up a few sentances about what it may be about and sitting down and writing it) as he expresses his desire "to see others create scenarios using the existing engine." But I haven't heard of any of these "certified developers"...

Is it just me, or is Cache posting an abnormality (of late), and no one but me really comprehended that? Bah. Posted Image

Busy.

I recently set up a bulletin board server for the Tutors here at the University though, so I guess I just got bitten by the forum bug again.

Cache, your credibility level is dropping at the same rate your post count is increasing. Which is admittedly not very fast, but it's dropping nonetheless Posted Image

How could you call packing Salmon interesting, in my opinion it would be a very boring job, i wouldn't even do that.
