Atomize release imminent

I'm very giddy (and quite nervous to boot) to announce the impending release of "Atomize", our T2D baby that has kept my team occupied over the last several months.

I just put up a plan about it here with pretty pictures and an offer to my fellow GG community folk to get a pre-release sneak peek at the game in its near-final state.

In short, this is aimed at the casual gaming market, being a bit of a puzzler with solid action. There are tons of extras and goodies to discover, and some fantastic visuals thanks in no small part to the power of T2D. The game supports an interesting online multiplayer mode complete with player matching, worldwide ranking ladders, chat rooms and more. Multiplayer gameplay is (hopefully; scale testing hasn't fully happened yet!) capable of supporting 100+ simultaneous players in a single game.


We've had an incredible amount of fun making this game, and we're anxious to put the finishing polish on this and move on to the next one!


Here's a few more screenshots:

Hi @Luke: great game, even when I'm not a puzzle fan...

I was wondering if is a resource what you used to load your images because
I'm planning to do the same... I don't want them opened to the mortal gamer
not the hacker gamer though :)

Thanks!

I'm using a combination of the encryption resource that Pat Wilson wrote here and the AES additions done by Michael W
