The World Foundry has issued the following statement: "The World Foundry LLC is no longer responsible for the production of the games Explorer2260 and Maim and Mangle. Details on development time line and team will be given in a public statement to be released shortly."

Hyperion have an update on Shogo online. The Amiga version is 95% complete.

great... so we'll never see Explorer2260... well i suspected that'd they were giving up, development time was really stretching out.... maybe Hyperion wants to have a go at it?

In reply to Comment 2 (Anonymous):
You will see it (I can't say how soon though): I'm still working on it, but TWF
LLC no longer has anything to do with it and I'm no longer an employee of the
company. The reasons behind my departureare complex and I wouldn't discuss them
here anyway, but I'm looking for other jobs (two interviews next week) and
development will be done in my spare time until alternative arrangements can be
made..
as the notice says, I'll be releasing a statement soon. ATM I'm working on a mockup
of a website for one of those interviews so I don't really have time to write
something properly.

In reply to Comment 3 (chris):
From the updates that I've seen (originally from TWF) you've done quite a bit of work on M&M as well as Explorer2260. I doubt that the two would be dropped but even if never licensed, you yourself would probably still finish them Chris. Anyway, keep up the excellent work that you've done so far.

In reply to Comment 5 (the man in the shadows):
Now don't forget Massi has done a lot of the programming work for M&M. He
wrote all the editors (some pics seen in latest AmigActive) and the 3d engine
as seen in the screenshots. Don't want him to feel left out now. :)

I have always wondered, are these games being written for a PPC Classic Amiga, or for the new portable OS!??!

In reply to Comment 7 (XDelusion):
"Classic" PPC and Linux are the current target platforms.

Do you have any plans to port them to Ami? I love Hyperions games but they are just ports after all. It would be nice to see original games available for the new amiga when it comes out. Not to mention that both M&M and E2260 both have an incredible amount of depth thanks to the CEG (something that few games can match)
