  1. @BTGBullseye Some guy did/began to do a clone with Games Maker, although it looks like all the mirrors are down http://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?showtopic=398845 Currently there's a Facebook group for the fans (with almost 300 users) where 1 or 2 guys are doing a remake: 1 is doing a whole remake, other has the original class files for the server and decompiling it. Another had contact with Oliver Miao [omiao] and tried to buy the original from Vivendi who bought Centerfleet before it was bought itself by EA. Looks like the development has been slow but it is still continued http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=6545940845
  2. Hi mates, I remember the game too, although I was always playing Avalanche exclusively. Remember the game? It was also called Icetris 2, a multiplayer tetris clone where there were small creatures called puds with different colors, and once trapped in the ice and the line cleared would give you powerups or weapons to attack the other players. I was so addicted that now (13 years later) that I am professional programmer I am thinking about doing a remake. The only thing stopping me is that I worry putting the hours to develop it and then face a lawsuit by the tetris company or EA. As you probably now, Centerfleet was bought by EA (I guess after licensing tetris from the tetris company) and they turned on to making mobile games. It really pissed me off because they stopped the game (and thus the income they were making) but never launched a new version or released the code. There were so many fans of that game BTW, some guy did a remake of the original wormhole, you can find it easily on internet. PS: Just registered here to reply to this thread. It makes me happy to meet people from that community, it was really a great one
