This has been a long time project of mine, and I've been posting about it here on GameDev ever since it started way back in 2004. After the project laid dormant for nearly 18 months, we've picked it up again, dusted it off, and have resumed active development. A few hours ago I uploaded a video that demonstrates the current state of the game along with audio commentary discussing various aspects of the game's design. I wanted to share it and get some feedback, as well as maybe find some interested people who would like to help out. Enjoy!

Also, here are some old screenshots.

A lot of people were telling me that the audio commentary was too difficult to hear over the game, so I adjusted the volume levels and uploaded the improved video. Edited the original post so that it now links to the new video. Thanks for watching!
