Hey everyone,
The time is here for a first glimpse! It is still rough, not much to do other than walk around and gaze in awe at my sweet zone, but you are welcome to give it a shot.
The website has a forum now: http://www.dangerlands.com/
Here is the info for the current beta test: http://www.dangerlands.com/index.php?opt....opic=8&Itemid=2
The Beta is now a web-app, so no need to download or to make sure you have the latest info. Just go here:
http://www.daveyounggames.com/dangerlands/dangerlandsWIP.php
You'll have to install the web plugin, but that web address will contain the latest build, so each time you go, you'll be up to date.
To make an account, just type in some account name and password and it will prompt you to create a new one if it isn't already in there.
Please try it out and give any feedback (here or on the DangerLand forums). Especially let us know if you can connect, make a char, and run around in game.
NOTE: this uses the low quality textures to keep it small, so don't be alarmed that it isn't beautiful.

We are shooting to have a beta test this weekend. Probably web/PC standalone only (since iPhone/Pod apps have to go through the store). I'll keep you posted.

Well, the server was being funky, but Dave and I got online for a bit. He made some changes and is uploading the new version. Hopefully it will be ready for beta testers on monday. I'll post some pics when I get a chance (bedtime for daughter and then Amazing Race).

It is alive! But very beta-y.
See the first post for details.

Gahhh... Missed it.... I'll try a bit later.
I love alpha/beta code I think it shows what the team had in mind before it gets changed for what ever reason (political/marketing/technologica/etc...)

The quick network test is back up. Use the web version. I expect it gets the updates faster. There is now a chat box!

Nice!
I tried last night but went to the web page and didn't see the link in the post until this morning.
I'll try again tonight (big change going on at work anyway -- why can't I game at the same time  )

I'm adding in some campfires with cool flame effects and some spiderwebs for the long canyon at one edge of the map. All those little things really add to the atmosphere.
