Since they left the forums to never come back, around the time they published Mutant Storm on XBLA, I haven't heard a thing about them.

Do anyone know if they're still in business? Did they release any other game? Here's an old interview (http://www.tigsource.com/features/interview_pompom.html) from TIGSource where they said in March (07) they would release a new game, but I haven't heard anything.

Work in "big industry" is a little bit different and often controled by another rules. Half a year isn't too long time for them. For example they could wait small time and aim their release to the fall.

As far as I know they are OK if this is what you were meaning to know Manuel.

Not sure how much more I can say, but they've not disappeared.

@princec: That's great news, exactly what I was hoping to hear. It's a pity I don't have a X360, though :)

Cool, didn't realise the cat was out of the bag - I saw it on partnernet.

Game looks good, clearly had a lot of work put in. I still prefer the original though - it had that magic something.

Looks yummy, makes me want to fire up my old copy of Mutant Storm (if I can still find it). I don't have an Xbox, though, so Empire is out of reach.

Too bad they (and the Moonpod guys) decided to abandon the forum. They did have some interesting insights and perspectives.
