Sounds interesting. Also the Lightwave-Connection is a real time saver. But it seems there is a problem with timing. I played this level ( the first video... http://www.gamecore.ca/blog/video-gallery/ ). Sometimes movement and rotation of the camera is slow, normal, slow, fast, slow, normal... and so on. Usually movement and rotation should be FPS-independent.

//well, the website exactly says,
A era ends, another begins
We have reached the end of the GameCore Alpha testing period. What does this mean? Well, for starters, it means that we have temporarily closed the Alpha testing site for all logins. This is required so we can rearrange a few things and take the wrapping off the new site & framework.
If you have been involved in the Alpha test, don’t worry - all of your accounts and logins are still valid - we just needed to close the doors for a moment to get a few things polished prior to launch.
Launch you say?
Yes, the next phase of GameCore’s evolution is to open the doors to the general public and let everyone in on the fun. We will be launching the new site, store & gamecore Beta all at the same time. This should be interesting (eek), but if all goes according to plan, later this week, everyone will have access to the next generation in game development - GameCore!
Stay tuned for more details as we get closer to the Launch.

Here the news :
" Oh the joy of release day
Ok, we missed our internal date of July 4th. Was hoping to have a nice present for the american’s in the crowd, but alas, it was not to be. Our goal with the next release is to throw it out to the masses - yes, the GameCore Beta will be our official ‘unveiling’, both of the new engine and the new community site that we’ve been developing. But, as with any project of this size, there are always a billion things that you want to get finished before things get exposed to the public scrutiny that is the internet.
At this point, we are down to the nitty-gritty. Technology (both for the site & engine release) is good to go. At this point it’s down to a crapload of writing, for documentation and marketing materials for the site. The ‘Beta’ part about the release is going to mostly be the lack of documentation about the new features. We try to make our software as self-documenting as possible, but it’s still a very crucial component of the big picture.
But, the world can’t wait forever, so tomorrow is the big day. One final pass on the engine to fix a few known issues, and a mad rush of writing for the site, and we will be live, ready or not (here it comes!)
Stay tuned for more info.
