And now, for something completely different:

Anyways, sorry for getting into yet ANOTHER Portal 2-like story ark. I promise the upcoming comics will start to get a little more original and Doctor Who-y, soon!

That's right, we are not only working on fixing bugs or adding weapons like the Freezer.
Hedgewars's graphics continue to expand. What's new?

-Fruit Theme



-Hats, hats and more hats.



-New fort, SteelTower.



We are also working on the London and TV maps for the next release!

Stay tuned for future progress!

Why am I doing a super special comic today? Oh, no reason. No reason at all. (EDIT: It was for April Fools)

Hello, another wonderful testing week has passed, thanks to all the testers!!!

Another alpha build is ready for you, hopefully the next one will be beta-ready!

We added icegun by default in all weapon sets and prepared a new mode, called One of Everything! Please try this out and let us know what do you think of it. A lot of bugs have been caught and many are being worked on. You should also try out the source snapshot as we improved our cmake build system too.

Mac OS X: http://download.gna.org/hedgewars/Hedgewars-0.9.19-r8670.zip

This version won't work on .18 multiplayer, only .19 people will see your rooms. Make sure to check that your multiplayer peeps are on the same version of the ALPHA. As always be aware that this is an ALPHA release so it may break EVERYTHING (but shouldn't).

Please report any bug on http://code.google.com/p/hedgewars/issues/list we'll highlight the user(s) who report most bugs
Some bugs/features are known but please please test so that they'll get squashed before release!

For all translators, please stay tuned, we are going to freeze strings as soon as we reach beta stage, so you can be sure that your work won't be harmed until we release

Hey guys, thanks a bunch for all the testing this week!

We've baked another alpha build for you, this time including the amazing ICEGUN!

If you wish you can try this out and let us know how to balance it wrt the other weapons; right now it's not included in any weaponset, you'll have to enable it manually but it will be a lot of fun once you try it! Also we are looking for a nice sound, point us to a nice sample and we'll include it in the next release.
