'Poly &quot;mentioned&quot; on GameDev Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

Well, I don't know if anyone cares about this, for it is much less of an honour than being mentioned on BBC, but...

The biggest indie game dev site has posted a link to 'Poly with regards to the release of the CtP2 source code:

quote:
Civilization: Call To Power 2 Source Released
Posted by: Promit at 16:59
Activision has released the complete source to Civilization: Call To Power 2. More info can be found here. There's a small but growing community looking to modify the game, see the website for details.


The word "here" being the link to 'Poly.

Source:

http://www.gamedev.net

Looks like this here place is like the center of CtP source code development.

It seems like source code releases are good for our publicity. Maybe it's time to start other campaigns for the older Civ games.

What other game source codes haven't been released yet?

(We shouldn't do this with EVERY game though. Publishers will start viewing Apolyton as "the site where our profits come to die at the hands of code-hungry dorks" )

Not so...

"Apolyton closed; thousands mourn."

That would suck.
