I've actually really wanted to get back into trying my hand at one of these again, but I figured the community has maybe lost interest?
If people made it known that that was something they'd be interested in I'd totally be willing to try a few new ideas.
People didnt loose intrest, its just very VERY time consuming, look at rooty shooty for an example.
Also is there any good software for making a galaxy map ? Im trying to do it for a project soon.
