(i think we don't need it) OpenGl? Maybe for SE2 ;-) We should do 800 x 600 at minimum. We have to make new pictures, i think.

What do you mean with scripting? Do you want to give the player the oportunity to control some things through a script? Hmm, races powers maybe. or start balances. > - themes : > - just different pictures ? new technology tree ? new races ? new pictures are needed, the old races and some new (I think of the mankind), The technology tree is good as it is, only new pictures for the first. > - translation : do we do one ? could some words belong to logic factory? I will make a german translation. In the German translation of the original game it dosn't seem like that they own any translated word. > - website and advertising : happypenguin.org Some fine Games are there > > that's it :) > > i'll be busy until i pass my speech but after that i'll have > plenty of time since i'm awake at 1 in the morning ;-) Ok, are you currently in the US?
