Switching to Unity proved immediately to be a great choice.

Personally I'm working on the gui in the main menu and Geoscape at the moment.

Here's a some previews:

As you can see I still need to add shadow and a night texture to the Earth in Geoscape but things are definitely going in the right direction now.

Oh yes, these screenshots are taken ingame, no photoshop trick in these.

We are currently in great need of help at two positions.

Programmer

We need someone with enough spare time and willpower to help us with the programming of the project.

You need to be open minded and able to work with new tools like Unity.

Animator

Not the usual 3d animator but rather a 2d animator.

You will mainly be the creator of the intro movie and cutscenes.

You need to be able to animate 2d artwork in a "flash" kinda way.

We already have nearly every artwork (in layered psd files), music and sound effects needed to create the movies, so only animating is needed.

We are looking for the Digital Graphic Novel look as seen here: Video

And the gunfight here: Video

If you could fit in one of these two positions and would like to help with UFOCF throw me a mail here:

I would also like to throw out a big thank you for all the support we have been given so far. Thank you.

After 5 years now I'll graduate as HTX student the 24th June 2009 and get the papers the 27th.. After that there will be some parties the days after..

Man I've waited long for this moment.

An HTX education normally only takes 3 years but at the second year I focused far too much on UFO:CF and really started to lack behind with the school so I eventually had to retake the whole thing.

I then focused far more on the school which from you guys point of view seemed like the UFO:CF was silently murdered without a word. But fear not, the project was just paused while I focused on the last part of my education.

I've waited so long to be able to really get back to UFO:CF and show off something playable.

Oh, and sorry guys for the Aprils Fool trailer, apparently some didn't understand it was a joke and was rather angry so I just pulled away the news post here on the front page, you can still find the video on YouTube though.

Within a week or so this thing will be up and running again like before things grinded to a halt.
