Hello dearest fans, friends and longtime supporters,
It pains me greatly to make this post. Please be patient as this is a very difficult post for me.
The beginning
7 years ago, back in December 2005, I spent a week evaluating games and engines to find something suitable for a small fan project, a gundam RTS. At the time, fan projects often would die before getting to even a playable state. I felt that by making a truly complete fan project would make Bandai see that Americans do love gundam. I wanted to make moving, fighting fan art, something only a modder of my experience could do. So I started out, I made Gundam Annihilation for TA then came the spring engine, a chance to make a truly free Gundam game!
So I have worked and worked and worked for 6+ years. As I worked I noticed a change in the world. I am just moving with those changes.
What are you going to do now?
I'll take the game system I have worked on and do some independent IP project. With my own designs and characters. I will do this because it is my nature to make things. I have not decided on a name for said project just that I know it is an inevitability that I will do something. I am not going into details here as I have no decided what I will do.
I thank all of you for your support.
Sad to hear, at least you had a good run. I have a lot of fond memories playing GRTS and had fun making the few singleplayer levels that became available in the released version.
Good luck on whatever you do next, I'll try to keep a look out for it.
I really will miss gundam rts, the game changed alot of the internet for me and helped me start my adventure into the RTS world and playing with my friends on this was one of the greatist online exrprience's i have had. Im gonna miss it. ~Princeofzeon (spring)
Good luck, man. I wish for the best.
I hope you the best of luck on your new project, just so you know whatever you decide to do will always have my support; its been a fun ride playing your game.
That sucks, I hope your next project will be good too!
Sad to hear, as I was I've been following this project for a long while... I'll support whatever you choose to do, and wish you the best of luck in your new endeavors.
Its sad to see it end but be sure ill be here waiting for your next project Smoth, youve done some awesome things and I cant wait to see whats next.
Awww great, well you had to move on someday but will you at least put out the latest build of gundam rts.
Knew this was coming someday as you started 5 years ago, when you do decide to do another project please inform all of us about it so good luck on what you decide to do in the future.
Your game was wonderful to play Smoth and seemed to be the only Gundam material around for PC. It's sad to see this go and you onto your new adventure. I hope that good tidings stick like glue to you in all that ya do. Good luck Smoth.
Is it like 100% complete? are you going to release a final build?
too bad.i liked this game.
Good Game.
It will be surely missed
Thanks for making a fun game.
Good luck with your next efforts!
HOPES DELETED
I hope to learn more about your new IP proyect soon through
Man, this blows.
Anyway, thanks for making this super game for everyone man, best of luck on your other project(s).
Kinda wish you kept the download up for those that never played this game, but other than that, this is sad news. I look forward to seeing what your new project is, though.
Aww, I can't believe this is happening. Cause this is the only Gundam RTS game that I really enjoyed. Too bad this is where the fun ends.
Well I hope the new project of yours will be alot more interesting.
Good luck and more power to you Smoth.
Wow. Sad to hear it. It was a great game and I had a load of fun with it. Will be looking forward to your next project.
Thank you for all your efforts in creating this fun mod. Good Luck in
your Future Endeavors.
This was a very great RTS that beats the rest that were made for 5 years I have to say that you were very dedicated to this game and for that I do say thanks and awesome for all the hard work you did all by yourself I wish you the best on your new project.
I came too late to say farewell to you, I hate myself for being ungrateful of your stunning Gundam RTS work, hope you will return with a new project of your own, I will miss you and your amazing RTS games.
