I used to spend hours on this game back in the day and I will always remember it.

One thing I've noticed there is no decent RTS on VR platforms I think I you make this in the same style gameplay and made it for VR you will defo get some sales.

Hi! VR support is actually quite a solid idea for Sass style gameplay, I think! I also used to love the game and spent countless hours on it when I was younger :) One of the tenets I went into this with is that it would be free, just like Sass was. That said, I stopped working some time ago as Alex had been working on bringing it back in G-mod again. I think he ended up stopping again after it was live for a little bit of time, sadly. Maybe due to work, which also has dissuaded me from coming back lately. That, and the fact that if I were to come back I would basically opt to scrap a bunch on the coding side as I've learned a lot in the past few years since I've done anything.. I know there would definitely be some interest in a revitalization, but it would definitely be a matter of getting momentum behind it. Assuming perfect advertisement, I would still expect a large burst of people initially for nostalgia purposes, but only a small subset coming back time and time again (and a fall to that subset might happen quite quickly).

Yeah I understand, theirs always that risk. Yeah there is a communited called exiled servers they currently host a server right now.

But I followed this project so hopefully if you ever get back on it i can keep upto date :D
