Still in progress.. Foolis working on a new set of models for it with a specific look in mind.
As usual, i've extended the scope a bit which relied on some new stuff goin thru the server updates atm (i.e. configurable skill names and an increased number of buildings). Most, but not all, of those changes are done now, once the rest are i'll be spending some more time building it.
ah ya know.. always takes longer than you think :]

Its coming along nicely now.. so heres a few initial details..

The game is themed like a game of 'Civilisation'.
You start with no skills, money or posessions in 20,000bc.. At first you'll need to take on the role of a hunter-gatherer to gain resources that you can transfer into new skills and building types. After discovering such wonders as 'toolmaking', 'writing' and 'boat building', you'll be able to paddle to the mainland where new resources are available. Only in the 'Ancient' era will money start to become important, and from then you'll need to build up an economy and learn new skills to progress through to the 'Medieval', 'Industrial' and 'Modern' ages.

The world will have a definite ending, either when one of the players develops interplanetary travel, when someone destroys the world with nuclear weapons, or when climate change or a random act of god brings civilisation to a halt.
Each time the world ends, the cause and the winner (if there is one) will be posted on the site.

More lata.

Round 2 Republic back up now, with a serverside fix for the demolition kit/dynamite :].
Sorry bout the bug & delay.

Theres a couple of fixes in the next client (0.44.9) that'll be needed to make it all run smoothly after the end sequences, inventory updates etc, but it should play ok with the current one.
