Colony 337 successfully lauched live to world late yesterday, on New Year's Eve, 2007.
This project took a lot longer to get out of development than it should have. I was beginning to think it would be a "permanent" hidden side project that no one else would ever see. But it's here now. And it's got active players.
Colony 337 is a turn-based, web-based MMORPG and MMORTS game of robot combat. It has an AJAX-based interface, so it requires Javascript to play. And it's free. More information is on the home page of the site, and on the wiki's New Player Welcome page.
I wrote this game for a number of reasons. One of the main reasons is that this is a game I wanted to play myself! But these sorts of game work best and are the most fun only when there's lots of other player. So please join in and let's have fun together.
Thanks!

Thanks for the invite. Have you posted this to any of the game sites as yet?

Kind of interesting; it's going to need more people to get moving, of course.
Couple of points so far:
- To Hit is way, way too low
- weapons (when they do hit) do far too little damage compared to the number of Repair points a basic 'bot has
- inventory screen is too wide - several times now I've clicked the wrong little yellow X and dropped the wrong thing - usually a fully ammo'd up weapon!
I'm going to hang around and watch the game go, it could be interesting! Thanks!
Is this game still active? I cannot login.
And the wiki and forum seem to be gone. :(.
