Yay!

This actually reminds me a lot of a subgame in an old game called Mission Critical. :)

Ah, yes. The well known weapon of war, the Debug! :wink:

In any case, judging by the amount going on in these shots, this is going to need TEH ROXOZ INTERFAZE! Preferably one that does not involve drawing crappy^H^H^H^H^H weird geometic shapes!

Have you guys considered using Xbox Live Arcade as a potential platform for Defcon?

Xbox Live Arcade might be cool, but I think IV would have to totally redo the graphics engine to make it use DirectX instead of OpenGL which might be more work than it is worth. :)

I think most game programmers would disagree with you there. It is a very well done product. The only real problem is that it is not portable. :)

Speaking as a Mac and Linux user,

DirectX sucks, use OpenGL.

Happy? :P
