Hey everyone.

Well, things are finally getting back on track.  I’ve focussed in on what I’d like to deliver and I’m happy with the plan.  I’ve also teamed up with a dude who used to work at Irrational (2K).  Because of his connection with the new X-Com game by 2K, he can’t help on Isochron, but we’re working on a smaller scope turn based tactical game on the side called Lost Company.  It’s turned out to be really good for Isochron as it’s using the exact same tactical engine which means I can progress things on Isochron even when design and management get in the way of things .  I just finished a first cut of turn based AI for Lost Company – and that means a first cut of Isochron AI is just about done too.

So the next order of business for Isochron is to finally finish the top down view.

But I’m keen to hear from you guys – how often did you make your way to the top down view in UFO?  A lot?  Or was the isometric view enough?  Personally I didn’t spend that much time in the top down view but I can see the tactical advantage of having one..

Anyway, keen to read all your comments!
