Looks Like Stars is Star Dust

Stars! is one great game. i've played the "original" and liked it very much. it was shareware and i didnt have the ability to buy it, neither was i willing to search for a "crack". Though if the sequel would be ever out i just *might* buy it. So bad its in troubles.

Yeah. I check their site about once a month. I think they have been screwed for money. Getting development cash is always incredibly hard, the past year or so, darn near impossible.

Really, hope they find an angel somewhere. The quality of their work is excellent.

Well, we could always try the 'email campaign' thingy on them. Everyone keep emailing and saying something along the lines of "Self-publish = get small returns, Don't publish = get zero returns. Your choice..."

Ya. But, ya'll wait a while, I'll warrant.

Don't discount the power of the little people. It appears that the multitude of supporters for the Jagged Alliance games has caught the attention of STRATEGYFIRST. They are going to take up the reins where SirTech had to drop them and run with it. Hope they let Urban Chaos get finished and released. The JA:UB and the spun-off mods are great fun if you are into tactical man-to-man games (IMHO).

LOL! Well, used to play AH's Squad Leader, long ago, but I still LOVE, strategic level war games.
Perhaps, we are a dieing breed.

That said, still, sick bastard I am, i love the micromanagement in SE4. LOL!@@@@@!
