This version of Stick Online is no longer in development. The following is
a version that I (Meiun, creator of Stick Online) am hosting for use by the
games donors. I guarantee no long term plan for this server, and can not
guarantee any direct support for problems encountered while playing on it.
This client is NOT meant for widespread public distribution.
We do still have plans for a new Stick Online sometime in the future,
but please don't ask us how long, as we have all been busy and do not
have any estimates yet. Keep an eye on our site (www.stick-online.com). Enjoy!
