I'm trying to get in contact with Laurence Brothers, the author of omega.
I've tried sending e-mail to him, and it didn't bounce, but I haven't
gotten a reply either.
Basically, I've made some mods to omega, and am interested in doing some
more, but I'd like to know what work is presently being done on omega, and
if there are any plans for it in the works right now.
So... If you're out there, Laurence, or if anybody knows where he is and
what's going on, please send me e-mail!
Thanks much!
- Paul

I would be interested in joining a development team if one ever came into being. The game really deserves a major rewrite and some enhancements. I compiled it not too long ago, and although its somewhat painful to play, its very refreshing after the monochrome feel of Nethack. - Lee (Don't get me wrong - I'm an avid nethack player. Its just that sometimes I feel that 99% of the monsters could be replaced by a single letter 'M' (monster), and half the items could be thrown out with no loss (or gain) to the gameplay.) -- /~~~ melvin@ncar.ucar.edu,melvin@snoopy.colorado.edu,melvin@boulder.bitnet ~~~\ | Lee Melvin | _Total Recall_ - Arnold Schwartzenegger, Sharon Stone, ILM, \| | | CGD / NCAR | sci-fi, blood, guts & more - it just doesn't get better! |\ | \___ DISCLAIMER: I'm not a scientist, they just let me play with the Y-MP ___/
