	UPCOMING GAMES
	**************

        This text file had about 4 or 5 games that the HDS guys were making
or were planning to program, but then I erased it all because you can get
all of that info on our web page. What I am going to put here instead is a
little info on what advances we are making in our games.

        * C++/VBasic Programming - I'm finally going to face it and admit
 that even QB4.5 is weak. This doesn't mean that I'm going to stop using
 QBasic to program, it just means that I am going to start to learn new
 languages. Favrefan79 and Sabin24601 have already begun to use VBasic, and
 as of now, I am learning both VBasic and C++. Personally, though, I am
 probably going to continue to use QBasic for a while..

        * More WAV/MIDI Sounds - I know that JoshuaStuc already uses MIDI
 sound in his games, and now I am going to begin, as well. The first game
 that will use MIDI and WAV sounds made by me will probably be 'Cold As
 Hell II'.

        * Non-QBasic drawn pics - I think all of us have already begun to
 use these, but you will see many more loaded pictures. The reason for this
 is better quality graphics, and quicker gameplay (and loading).

        * 'Out with the old' - I have already thrown out all of my ideas for
 new games. My intention is to work on one game at a time from now on. It is
 most probable that I will program 'Cold As Hell II' right now. I think that
 Sabin24601 has also scrapped 'Rise of the Overlord' as well.

        * New Additions to HDS - Right now, we are looking for a new HDS
 member. We are not accepting applications of any sort. If you do want to
 get into HDS, then your best bet is to join FIG Inc. (that's where we look
 first). The address of the new FIG Inc. web page is in the text file called
 'elysian'.
