It’s been a long time since our last update, but we’ve been working hard behind the scenes to get everything done.

omega has been working overtime to get us to a feature complete stage where we can begin tweaking, bug fixing, etc.
We plan on porting over to the Orange Box SDK as soon as it is available, so that we have access to a lot of features that we are seeing in the Team Fortress 2 beta.
