It’s been 9 months since the last full release. Time for another one! The most visible changes since 1.2 are:

• The landscape is drawn in higher resolution
• The Macosx port has an editor like the other ports
• A new scenario Scorched Garden, and a redesigned Overcast

But there are a lot of smaller changes and improvements as well, especially for people who want to write their own game content.

You are advised to first uninstall OC 1.2 before you install OC 2.0 as the game data of it is incompatible with the previous version.

This version shall be the foundation on which finally the mines, production lines and generally the settlement is implemented. The start signal has already been lit with this forum post from Clonkonaut. If you are interested to contribute, just talk to him or reply to this forum post.
