There once was a fansite called Evolva

Postby ODDin » Tue May 08, 2007 2:36 pm

I remember that many years ago, there was a fansite called Evolva, which was supposed to be pretty cool. Now I can't even find that one page that did exist. Is it really dead, then? It was a neat project, I remember submitting a poem myself. :)

A quick Google search reveals the site still exists.

There's a link to it on the Community page of the Darwinia official site.

ODDin, didn't you look there? :roll:

wasn't there also a game called Evolva? It was pretty good, if I recall.

Actually, I did search on Google, but I missed the reference on the community site. I assumed it had just found the official Darwinia website... :/
So apparently it is dead indeed. A shame.

And yes, Evolva was pretty cool game indeed.

Wait, what?

I wouldn't say it's dead. It's certainly not as dead as some of the other - sites linked on that page.

Well, with these as your point of reference, sure, Evolva is simply the embodiment of vividness. However, it's been in this state of, how should we say, evolution, for, what, 3 years?
And it's all the more a shame considering it was supposed to more of a collection of various works, not really something that was supposed to be solely created by Darkshine (it was Darkshine, right?), and there were some nice works submitted back at the day.

Actually, DNF in races means "did not finish". :P
