ThreadSpace: Hyperbol open beta
I have an announcement to make! ThreadSpace: Hyperbol has gone into open beta. It's an awesome game, and you should check it out.
Set in the far future, in which alien technology has jumpstarted human civilisation, war has broken out, and created conflict between three factions. Combat takes place bewteen ships, with a variety of (pretty cool) munitions being thrown around.
The way in which this is done lends Hyperbol to a genre genre of it's own. Being a blend of RTS, RPG, MMO, and action, it's a genre I like to call PVRTT (Persistant Variable Real Time Tactics). It's an interesting and fun gameplay paradigm that is truly new. The visuals are stunning, the audio is pretty damned good, and the community is an awesome bunch of people.
I urge you all to check it out at
the official site, because it's just too awesome to pass up.

Seriously, though, it is a really fun game, pretty cool, new, nicely strategic which remaining action-oriented. Check it out. It will be going in to full-scale release in a few weeks, so get in quick. it's really polished and nice.
I'll leave you with a few screenshots:
