Gratuitous Space Modelling, Release

It looks like Cliffski wants modding to start for Gratuitous Space Battles even before he's properly released the game, as he's releasing the ship models for people to fiddle with. "Basically I couldn't think of a good reason not to give modders access to the raw models that are used to make the art in the game," says Cliffski, "and I know that if I was a modder, I'd find that very handy indeed, and be churning out lots of variants and tweaks of it." The full game launch is apparently happening this week, with the release version of the game going up on the Positech site on Thursday.
