It was completed and released in 1989 by Sierra On-Line. You can find it for sale on EBay, or from a private collector. You might get lucky and find it in a bargain bin or in a thrift shop.

Yeah. There's a number of them on E-bay. Both for Atari and PC. So, I'd say the status is: green.

I don't think anybody knows if somebody's still working on something CB-related. Updates are scarce. You should ask these kinds of questions in the thread of the person working on the project you're following, btw.

What??? He didn't say anything about a remake.

And as far as I know, there's only the P&C (point and click) version being made, but that's a leisure time product for one of the boardies, using the original graphics.

I am not sure if my P+C Remake is the one DKornblet is referring to but I am still working on my project. Progress on the project is quite slow though, since I am doing all the preparation of rooms and scripting myself which as you can imagine is a very slow process.

Unless someone asks me a question about the remake it is unlikely you will see me updating my thread much because I don't want to bore everyone with all the tiny details of the development process.
