Alot of work has been done since the last news update. The framework of logging in and the lobby have been created. After the rest of the GUI is created, Presidents will move to the alpha stage, meaning that those interested in testing (and beating down) the game should contact the project admin.
After a long hiatus, work has now began again on improving the project. CVS will now be used - I have uploaded the code under tag 'devel-1-1-0'. Work has been done to create the framework for playing over the internet and have the server tie into a MySQL database for user information.

The semester is almost over and I will be actively working on the project, so be sure to look out for a new version soon. I plan to finish version 1 and get it functional before beginning version 2, which will include online play. I have a very basic network socket system coded, and I will work from there.
The first beta version of Presidents is now available for download! More updates to come as progress continues.
I know there will be many questions about how to play the game and such. Please, if you have questions, email them to willjasen@gmail.com and you will have an answer promptly!
I am near release of a beta of Presidents v1. I have finished logic for the game and only need to go back and organize console output and tidy up the source code.
