of February 2007.
Raymond Snippe, Development Manager at Lighthouse said: "Vertex

team is dedicated to delivering the best gaming experience
possible so we collectively made the decision to add some
additional development time", he went on to say: " I think once
gamers get their hands on this title next February, they will

Further news and plans regarding SunAge, including plans for a
beta test later this year, will follow. About SunAge SunAge is
a new breed 'oldschool' 2D RTS with gorgeous graphics. Among
its genre-defining features are: - Alternate modes for all
units, dual functionality for greater tactical depth. -
Connection lines: Exploit weaknesses in the enemies network
while strengthening your own connection lines - Command
queuing: Command your units to prone, build or attack where you
want them and when you want them to do so. - Indirect
Intelligent Targeting: order your units to focus on
pre-selected targets. SunAge takes place in a futuristic
setting across 2 different worlds, ranging from a lush alien
planet to an earth reduced to desolate wastelands and
industrial cities. In the distant future, earth is dying and
mankind retreats into sealed cities. Then a new cult called
RaakZun arises, spreading chaos. Our hero battles to protect
his Federation and aims to strike at the heart of the Raak
Zun's creed. This opens a gateway to an alien planet and frees
up the way for lethal Sentinel drones, who will crush any
life-forms that get in their way. SunAge will include a
singleplayer campaign, skirmish and multiplayer battles. To
