: Hi Matt,

: info about it.

: Cheers,

Well, the scenario is titled "Pheonix Falling" is an extensive story about a lunar colony ("New Pheonix") on the fringes of human space. The player was a seedy character who is trying to turn [his?] life around and earn a legitimate living, so [he] sets course to this promising colony. Only, when he wakes from cryo, something is dreadfully wrong. This is where the scenario starts.

It is almost in beta form, just about 4 or 5 levels to finish, chapter screens (if I do any), and tweaking. It will be about 40 full-length levels and several "transition" levels. It is not a total conversion, but does have some new textures + an entirely new set, several new monsters and sounds, and all new weapons.

I am pretty proud of most of the level designs (at least architecturally) and the atmosphere of the game. Maybe I can get a beta version ready in a couple of weeks?
