Hi, I agree with Charles.
Thom, you are a fine person and a valued contributor and programmer. I too would suggest that you produce the side scroller. But don't just throw something out there for two reasons. 1. You would not like it. 2. your customers would not like it. You take pride in what you do, so make something that you can be proud of, as well as your customers will like. Revamp the old Monty game in such a way as to comply with the cease and desist order, yet is a game that you will be proud to put your name on. Then after that has been done, use your game engine to make the 3 d version you always wanted to create. Or, take an unscientific off list poll from only those who have pre-purchased the game and see what they say and go from there. Again, do what you want and be true to yourself. I appreciate the updates and am pretty sure that most of us do. rich ----- Original Message ----- From: Charles Rivard Sent: Friday, March 21, 2008 5:30 PM Actually, why can't we have the new game as well as the old. The old is first finished, then comes the new. I'm excited about both, and I don't see why they can't coexist. I support Thomas in his creation of the 3D game, but all in good time. Complete one project that has long been waited for, then work on the next. Get one game out of the way, be done with it, then work on what's in the future. If a game is half completed, and it was paid for, crank it out, fine tune it through beta testing, and distribute it. Gamers who have not bought it yet just might do so, and those who have already bought it get what they paid for. And, hopefully, all supportive gamers will continue to be supportive based on this course of action, as he will be aiming to please the paying customers. I am open to how my thoughts are unreasonable. I don't expect the game to be out in a day, a week, a month, or any designated time. As long as it is still being worked on, and effort is made to get it to those of us who are willing to wait, that's fine. But to seemingly drop it in midproduction is not the right way to go. --- Laughter is the best medicine.
