Commodore, a project.

Note: This post will be updated from time to time to include up to date information.

What is Commodore?
Commodore is the codename of a project I am working to develop strategy games for flash. My intent is one of multiple tiers, the first being to release a superior Turret Defense game.

Ultimately, Commodore is the production of an engine. It will be substantiated in the form of many different strategy games based on the every-improving core Commodore engine.

Project History:
The current engine has been in production since 8.23.07, which can be described as it's official birthday. Up until the last few weeks I could only afford several hours a week to work on it. But now development resumes and we should see a release soon. The current version is v0.6.
