Hello All,
New member. Long time lurker.
I remember seeing a website in 2014/2015 about a Fallout/Wasteland clone. The project was abandoned and the developers said that they would transfer all game assets to OGA. Does anyone else remember this game? Here's what I vaguely remember:
The domain name was hyphenated (*-rpg ?), the TLD was german (.de) (?) Not sure at all but it's all I remember.
The website had screenshots of the game. Art was isometric. Many weapon icons had been completed when the game was abandoned.
I've tried a combination of Google wildcard searches but have not found the website, which probably means that the domain has expired and fallen off Google. I don't know if the internet wayback machine allows wildcard searches.
Does anyone remember this game and where the developer uploaded the assets?
Thanks, in advance.

I remember there was some PARPG. It has its own tag here on OGA "PARPG":

You can also google "PARPG" and see some videos of isometric game to confirm if it's the one you're looking for. I don't know what website it had and if it was .de though. However google says the game was made with open source game engine FIFE, which has http://www.fifengine.de/ address, which ends with .de.
Do you know why it was abandoned? If they had the forethought to announce they intended to transfer assets to OGA before everyone stopped working on it, that implies it was abandoned for reasons other than "eh, we just don't feel like working on it anymore". How "clone" was this fallout/wasteland clone?
What I mean is, if they cloned it based on copyrighted DNA from the actual fallout/wasteland games (the assets were not necessarily made entirely from scratch, but based off of original fallout/wasteland assests) then they may have wanted to transfer all their assets to OGA, but were not legally allowed to do so.
--Medicine StormThank you!
Zero-Projekt and fifeengine.de is the one I remember. Thank you!

Oh Awesome! Good find, buttons.
--Medicine StormThank you Buttons and MedicineStorm.
Zero-Projekt was the game I remember. The project had progressed quite a lot.

When I last visited the site the front page had an announcement from the developers that the game had been abandoned and that all assets would be transferred to OGA. --Perhaps Medicine Storm is correct. The game began as a Fallout Clone (called Fallout:Zero) and it is possible that Bethesda forced them to delete all assets.
Anyway... Thanks very much for helping me find this.
