Really nice site. I'm glad David et al are tackling this full time now that he finished school. Lugaru 1 was great, and I totally love Black Shades.

Alright! Loved Lugaru! Hope it's Intel video card compatible!

My computer sucks.

That's good to hear.
Lugaru is fun and got a great fighting system, it's just utterly frustrating. Frustratingly addictive, too :)
I'm quite excited about Overgrowth. Technically it is apparently going to be state-of-the-art, but I'm really looking forward to hearing about their plans for the gameplay.

It is going to have a somewhat more gentle learning curve to make it less frustrating :) I am also going to try to more strongly emphasize the physics in the movement and fighting.
