The TGE`s point is to make a game and a simple game engine.
Now it`s only partly made engine (80% or about, let alone optimizing and debugging), so I`m looking for artists, writers, map-makers end so on.
Firstly I was planning to make a game in Might and Magic Universe, but now I`m thinking about switching to another one, but having the same spirit of the magical tale with technological background.
