Free MMO: Shades of Truth!

Cool. What's the connection to the original Underlight? Same codebase? What happened to the Lyra Studios people? Did they open source the codebase or give it away to volunteers to re-open? I'm glad to see it's back. Just curious how this came to be.

Hello. GM Independence, here. To answer your question: Some time ago, a small group of people got together with the intent to resurrect the game loved by so many, in effort to give something back. They bought a small nonprofit license. While the teams previously, have had several issues, and a great deal of interpersonal problems, it has changed hands a few times. Sadly, this fact, and a few technical deficiencies have dwindled the player base to incredible lows. At this point, we a new team have stepped in, on behalf of the players, to offer a new view on the old game, and prepare to see something we've all been waiting to see. A 3D client. New maps, and UI, are being worked on already. To my understanding from the Dev team, they are currently in the pre-alpha testing stage. But, that being said, we have a new story line, and plenty of surprises in store. On a final note, we the GM Support Team, hope to see you, and many more join the ranks of dreamers new, and once again.


Regards,



GM Independence
