MOO!!

I wonder what ever happened to Steve Barcia and his sister, they were a very talented team, but MOM was the Last game I heard of them doing. Ahh, and what a tour-de-force that was...<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

I just read an article about him....... he is alive and kicking and working for some company - I believe working on console games if memory serves me right. I read that on an "where are they now" type thing about MOO. Maybe gamespot? Or IGN?

Just a quick update. Seems we have run into some production problems so we won't be able to put the demo up today. As soon either Tim or I get a free second will immediately put it up.

My friends, allow me to help assuage the crushing disappointment which we all feel at this sad announcement by offering a free interpretation of what the esteemed Mr Arnesen may possibly mean by "production problems" http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/ima...ons/icon12.gif

**********

SHRAPNEL'S PRODUCTION PROBLEMS,
THE LONG VERSION
"So my partner Tim got his alimony check from his ex-husband yesterday, and we decided to celebrate the game going gold by going out and getting really hammered. Everything was going fine until Tim got in a fight with these really butch transvestites, and I tried to help him out. Anyway, as soon as I'm released from the hospital here, I need to drop by the orthodontist and get fitted for a new plate. After that, I have to go to the police impound yard and get my '57 Caddy out of hock. Next stop is my lawyer's office, then with him down to the county courthouse to file the appeal papers on the extradition order to Tennessee on that charge of statutory. But the good news is that I don't have to sweat being extradited to Alabama for the miscegenation charge, since California doesn't recognize that as a crime. From there we have to go by the jail and bail out good old Tim. I just hope he's sobered up enough to walk by then. By the time we've done all that and dropped my lawyer off back at his office, we figure the day will be pretty much shot, so we thought we'd just drop by the bar and have a few beers. Buy anyway, guys, as SOON as we can, we'll get that new demo out to you, PROMISE!"

Um guys when I meant partner I meant business partner..

Geez some people :P

Anyway if things work out I plan on releasing it tonight, seems our new e-commerce service got the final bugs worked out.
