Imaged With ColorWorks -- a letter from SPG:
To Our ColorWorks Users.
First we want to thank our ColorWorks users whom felt so good about our products that they note their use of ColorWorks for graphics on their web-sites and home pages. There are many of you and we thank you all.
In an effort to enable our users to "Show Their Colors" in a uniform way, we have made available an "Imaged With ColorWorks" graphic. This graphic can be found at the bottom of our own web-site.
Feel free to "steal" it and use it on your own web-site or home page. In addition, if you could also wrap it with a link to our web-site that would be real cool too. Regards and thanks to all of our users whom "Show Their Colors".

RoadKILL for OS/2 in Beta.
The Story.... There is none. Strap into a vehicle of destruction and kill stuff. You can shoot it, run it over, and shoot it some more. Just as long as you kill it. Beware of killer cows, killer vehicles, and pedestrians packing heat. In fact, most everything else is trying to kill you as well.
RoadKILL is one of the first action games written for OS/2 as a native application. It is the FIRST 24-bit color action game. RoadKILL features a custom 3D rendering engine, scalable window size (on the fly), and takes advantage of accelerated video cards.
RoadKILL requires at least a 486/33 with 8MB RAM and a DIVE compatible video card. RoadKILL also requires OS/2 Warp. RoadKILL does NOT require 24-bit color to run, but will use it if ya got it!
There is currently no beta information available, as RoadKILL is still in major development (for example, the sound engine is barely existent). Once finished, a RoadKILL playable demo will be distributed freely. The registered version will be distributed through mail order and other possible channels. More information available at http://xlogic.bevc.blacksburg.va.us/.

Frontier -- New Game Under Development.
Frontier (tentative title) is a real-time multimedia networked game where you compete against other players around the world via the internet. The game play is similar to the X-Trek or Net-Trek games which have been played on X-Window systems for years. Visit our web site for screen shots and more details.
Our web site is being moved to http://www.solarsystems.com. This new web site is up but not ready yet. Check it out if you like.
Frontier is complete from a technology standpoint (i.e. Graphics, Multiplayer Networking, Sound, Music, etc. are implemented, but we need to create more sounds, graphics, etc. We will be releasing a Beta DEMO version within the next few months. The purpose is to have end users test Frontier with their hardware and determine if there are any widespread incompatibilities or performance problems. We hope that when Frontier enters official beta testing, the majority of user input will be playability issues, not bug reports.
The Beta DEMO will not be feature complete. It will be a playable network game, however, as a demo user, your ship will be crippled. The robot ships will NOT be crippled. There will always be a crippled demo version available for free throughout the Beta, Gamma, and final release periods. The Beta (for approximately $25?) will be available near the end of summer and will be fully functional. The final game will cost in the range of $50-60.
