    Who likes turtles?

    edit: comedy doesn't work when someone edits the title to destroy the punchline

    Turtles are good. You can see a turtle I filmed in this video. But I have since discovered the error in the OP, and corrected it. So we must return to the topic at hand: ModJams!

    Are you guys going to assign a community "owner" of Last Stand? The official mod will naturally have more exposure if it can be updated through the workshop, rather than someone having to make a spin-off.

    Hopefully the mods will be picked up by community members. Would love to play a fleshed-out fighting mod (Natural Kombat?) some time down the line. =]

    A verbose and corporate way of describing this situation would be ‘multidisciplinary cross-pollination.’
    And here I thought that term meant when Ironhorse releases different types of bees into UWE's office....

    I (or anybody really) could stick them in a github repo and we can have the community contribute by forking / pull requests. At regular intervals taking the github source and moving it to Steam Workshop.

    If people are interested in this then I'll set it up.

    I love that you said "when" not "if"

    I wish the fighting game was closer to Tekken, but anyway it's great you managed to make a fighting game in Spark! Also I hope picking system and sentries from Last Stand will be the way things work in the original NS2.

    Was nice to track the process and watch the gameplay, hopefully the mods will get updates =)

    Must be great to be making mods for a game that used to be in its core a mod.

    What was really awesome during this ModJam was watching various developers work on the mods directly via twitch.tv. At one point I had 4-5 streams up just watching development from various angles. I learned a lot during the week and it was very awesome to help out with La Fauche (Heist). I do hope all these mods make it past source release.

    Also, I just watched a 13 minute video on turtles, fml.

    NS2 could really use some better weapon pickup code for sure. Something simple like priorizing all other weapons over welder/lmg would be a huge improvement, for example.
