Happy 7/7/7.
Electric Sheep is a Total Conversion whose aim is to bring the Marathon universe to Myth II. We had hoped and planned for the latest months to have the whole release of Electric Sheep online today, everything finished and well-tested and polished, but different tasks eventually got higher priority and prevented us from achieving this goal.
For those of you that may be interested in our project, here is a gallery of screenshots from the latest build. We are hoping to have a working preview version available for download soon.

I'm actually quite suprised, when I first heard Marathon port I thought not another crappy one, but those screens look pretty cool!

The screen shots look very good. But I was wondering what you thought was wrong with SiTH or Maramyth that you would make a new total conversion?

On occasion, SitH is a bit unbalanced and lackluster. Why replace Berserks with Cyborgs?
But A Long Awaited Drinking Party is really fun in CoOp mode!
