Flow isn't available yet, but in researching the desktop app for a brief <a href="http://fwdlabs.com/blog/2008/09/13/mark-coleran_gridiron-flow/" title="Mark Coleran's Flow of Visual Design for Film" rel="nofollow">post</a>, it fits your need. Basecamp is all of what you wanted, too: web-based, version-controlled, workflow-oriented, email-killer, etc. I also wrote a brief <a href="http://fwdlabs.com/blog/2008/03/09/filmmakers-and-basecamp/" title="How Filmmakers Use Basecamp" rel="nofollow">post</a> on how Basecamp can be used in other ways than organizational project management.

It reminds me of Alienbrain and another one called Project Overlord. Gridflow is another different approach, but I question about its viability to larger animation or VFX projects. It seems better suitable to publishing. A workflow manager for game assets? I remember checking out Mogware. I'd love to hear other people's take on this one. They have a trial version that allows 4 users to work without any time limit. I checked out Tactic. It reminds me of Alienbrain and another one called Project Overlord.
