"Star Control" rights acquired by Stardock!

You may recall Stardock as the people who came out with the Galactic Civilizations series -- a 4X game that rivals Master of Orion in depth, with absolutely astounding AI. (Most of what they do is Windows add-ons.)

The owner mentioned a fondness for Star Control way back. They had the winning bid for the rights to the "Star Control" name. And they've hired new people to start working on a new game this fall.

I've got my Hunam fingers crossed. Star Control II is one of my favorite games of all time (now freely available as "The Ur-Quan Masters"; you can download it at sc2.sourceforge.net). It will be nice to see more after the name was stuck in IP limbo for so many years; and it just might be good. (I have no idea whether the original creators, Toys for Bob, are at all involved.)
