So theres an open source version of XCom Apocalypse being worked on.
Its just hit the first playable alpha which should be released in a few weeks.

That's pretty awesome. I hope they keep working on it.
Too bad it isn't the same project as OpenXCom, but I guess you couldn't expect too much compatibility either way.

I hope they stick with turn-based and ditch the real-time.

Well... real-time is pretty handy if you just want to go to some place and there are no enemies nearby.

Yep, most of the battlescape and cityscape programming is done by the guy talking in the video. There are some earlier videos of him describing how he implemented pathfinding, etc., pretty impressive stuff.

Apoc is cool, but flawed in many ways. Once this is fully operational, some talent can make mods to fix some of the worst aspects.

Whenever I see those aliens it reminds me of Monsters Inc.

I love the progress and I love the accent.

Really looking forward to this.
