As the MOD of the year and Indie game of the year is still progressing on IndieDB, we came across an update to one of the most highly regarded Command and Conqueror conversions that we have ever played that we mentioned some years ago here on Indie Retro News. This is of course ' Twisted Insurrection '; a Standalone RTS total conversion update based on the Command and Conquer Tiberian Sun engine. The original release featured completely new units, structures (both new and old), new environments, a new story and now with the latest version 0.4.5 including some performance updates and numerous bug fixes to the client and the mod itself.
The main purpose however according to the Twisted Insurrection Team of this update is to showcase the start of the new GloboTech Campaign that will be included in Version 0.5. The mission included is the teaser version of the first mission in their upcoming campaign. Completely new faction artwork has been made including a new sidebar, unit icons, briefing interface and loading screens.
