As far as Enovation in audio gaming, Che, you have broken many an audio game barrier with rale racer and I am sincerely looking forward to your online football game! Keep it up! I do not mean to sound cocky, but look at what John, Harron, and I pulled off with Microsoft flight simulator 2004. A year ago, we weren’t able to play it. Then we put in some time and look what it gave us! I second what Ken said. A team of developers could really help. I also think that less arcade shooters would be nice, and an online audio RPG would be awesome. What about max shrabnel? That game description on Audiogames.net Sounded marvelous. But now we have audio quake. I think that there are a lot of great ideas, but as Che said, There is a major difference between having something floating around in your head, and bringing up your code parser and writing it. The team idea is awesome though. And for someone like Che to do this for us, and to put so much time in to the games he has made and in to the ones he continues to develop, that is simply fabulous! Let his work be an example to future or even current audio game developers to strive forward, press on with the programming, because it really pays off! I keep hearing about how we’re such a tiny market, and that is true, but it only takes a few people to step up and make something great. Look at the people behind Miriani. Look at Che. Look at Robert and John and Harron and I. Sure, it takes time. But that time can turn in to something great. Nothing is stopping you. Just my opinion. Best, Nick
