COMPLETELY AWESOME!!!! It's like Ace Combat 4 underwater! The only odd thing about it was that when you went above water, it freezes. Oh, and that one enemy sub looks like the one from SWE1: The Phantom Menace.I can't wait until the full game is released. Will it be free, shareware, or commercial?

Thanks for your comments!

That's true. In the next version (comming on monday or tuesday) there will be some radioactivity near the surface. At the moment at level 0 the newton physics world ends so the ship freezes.

It should be completely free, maybe some kind of premium accounts later to finance the server, as this game will be a multiplayer only one with a small but persistent world.

I already work on the multiplayer part, account login using a database (MySQL) in the background does already work - with the help of RakNet it's so easy.

I think by the end of this year there will be a very first playable multiplayer version.

The closest thing Irrlicht has come to a full free game in a long time...

I must say I'm impressed not much one for the specific arcade type style but definatly something I would waste hours of my life on had it been complete and free.

a game of this caliber if brought to professional standard would be worth $10-$30 USD.

keep up the good work.

Thank you Midnight!

These words are very motivating!

...just added the radioactivity (still without notification in the HUD), so it's not possible anymore to reach level 0.
