Rising Thunder, an indie fighting game that never made it out of its first beta test in 2015, is releasing a "Community Edition" of the game to let fans of the game keep it running despite its death. The fighter was first pitched as an accessible fighting game that focused on reading your opponent over execution. The former Rising Thunder team has announced that they are releasing the latest internal build of the game, which includes online play and local play, but there's no characters or stages that weren't available in the last beta. Additionally, the team is releasing the source code for the servers, allowing the community to tinker with and improve the rudimentary matchmaking server being released with the Community Edition. Rising Thunder: Community Edition will be released for free in January on PC. The Rising Thunder team also mentioned that they have a new project in the works and will announce it "when the time is right." Thoughts ? I really enjoyed the the little time I had with the game and with the community having the source code, the skies the limit for this.

Riot Games Acquires Radiant Entertainment
League of Legends developer Riot Games has acquired Rising Thunder developer Radiant Entertainment. Radiant has been working on 2 titles. Stonehearth, a voxel building game and Rising Thunder, a competitive robot fighting game spearheaded by fighting game veteran Seth Killian. Stonehearth will remain in development, but the Rising Thunder alpha is closing on March 18. This is extremely sad to hear as a Rising Thunder fan. As a person who was all that good at fighting games, Rising Thunder made me feel fairly good at a fighting game. With its east to understand controls and fun game play. It will surely be missed. What do you think of Riot Games Buying Radiant ? Monday, August 10, 2015
