TradeWars players?

by Sylvain Rochon · in General Discussion · 10/14/2006 (12:03 pm) · 3 replies

Hello,

As you might know Sylien Entertainment is making a commercial version of the old Classic TradeWars2002. It will be called TradeWars Tournament. We're now looking for any players of TradeWars here.

If you are or are curious about this game, go to

[url] www.sylien.com/survey.php [/url]

and take the 1 minute survey. You won't regret it. I think this is a great project! If you can refer some old TW2002 players to this site, the better.

I'm sure several people here at GarageGames used to play. :) I actually played the old text-based game this year! (www.alienbase.net)

Have fun.

Out of curiosity, is this an approved project from the IP holder? His name escapes me off the top of my head, but he's a TGB owner, and was working on TradeWars himself...

Stephen: It's "John Pritchett"

I remember reading somewhere that John had shelved his project earlier in the year and Sylien had been given a go ahead.

In fact, just done a google, there's a forum post by John regarding this www.tw-attac.com/TWForum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=19979

I'm trying to remember if tradewars was one of the BBS games I used to play, I played quite a few games that were similar but can't remember the names of most of them now :(

Gotcha, thanks for the info, and I wish the entire team great luck in development!

I just wanted to make sure is all, hehehe.
