hi all
if you haven’t noticed , i am a total mac geed, and, that i like good games for the mac. well, Ambrosia software has released some really cool screen shots of a new game that lost minds is developing. it is called Sketch Fighter 4000 Alpha. long name for such a cool game.
here is a quote from their website.
Remember those super-cool space ships you doodled on graph paper, waging massive intergalactic battles in History class with the fate of humanity hanging in the balance? Well they have sprung to life in Sketch Fighter 4000 Alpha! Bringing together line artwork created with One Pen together with a killer resolution independent OpenGL graphics engine may seem like an odd juxtaposition… that is until you give Sketch Fighter 4000 Alpha a whirl! (from the ambrosia upcoming section)
it is not very well know but the progress log has had 18,228 views. i have been asking on Redline multiplayer if anybody has heard of it but no one has. but here are some of the key elements
—– Audio —–
* Original sound-effects with stereo panning
