E2; DevUnited troubles; New Project

Okay, so there have been a lack of updates, but work has been going steadily into this alpha to make it look and play better than it ever did before. The game showcases new weapons (not stock weapons from FPSC) as well as new enemies, and a weapon that every Daikatana fan should looovvee (hint, hint).
Not much has been going on with my personal life...I met this girl named Megeane who is really fun and vibrant. I'm having fun hanging out with her, so other than that plus side of my life right now...really nothing!
Now if Anita would finish the damn Demon character we could move on...;)

Also, if you're wondering about the status of Hitler Gone Wild (the new game from Developers United), you're out of luck: we experienced a complete loss of his system due to Water Damage in the office (the damn cat knocked over a cup of water on the desk into the PC). This means that he doesn't have a PC right now (he's using a P3 OptiPlex atm) which means that the HGW data is either
1) Wiped Out
2) Recoverable
3) Totally Fucked
So we're hoping for option 2. You won't see as many updates at the DevUnited website anytime soon but be assured we're working hard to get his PC up and running!
Alas, keep up with the forums because THEY'RE DYING! Also a heads up to everyone who is noble enough to keep checking there every now and then!

In this possible "new project" we're working on...I didn't want to announce anything just yet until it's solid, but word is floating around the office that we want to make our own version of Mortal Kombat. Everyone's been hooked on the game (Mk2 for Genesis) so it didn't come as a suprise to me when Mike came up to me and asked if we could do a parody of Mortal Kombat. I had him research it and as it turns out, there is a game out there called OpenMortal, which is basically a fighting game, open source. A game with no additional coding, just a recreen of our own actors and a couple of tweaks and a game is born! We purchased a big blue screen and we're currently looking for nice video cameras to film with. If you know of anything, please email me @ corbin@3dfxdev.net. It is appreciated!
We're very excited about the future that holds for us at 3dfx Development! Remember to bookmark us!
