hi will, i totaly agree with you. look what has been changed in this
beta! removed joystick support and mouse support! it wasn't perfect but
at least it worked, pluss the audio with fmod, going back to sdl, i
think that you will create mota in all the programming languages
available, lol. just kidding man, but onestly you aren't going to sell
more copies by adding linux or mac support, yep, you might get some more
peoples to buy the game, like 10 or so, but that's it(that's my point of
view at least) and if linux or mac users can play the game, there's
always the vm possibilities for now. see, while others are working on
new titles you're announcing new betas of mota for more than 2 years,
pluss if we count mysteries of aztecs and montezumas revenge / return i
can't even count...
even the developers that develope game for the sighted stick with
windows most of the time(unless there's a very good platform that allow
then to use and create the game in more than one system, like steam)
you will never be able to make everyone happy. if i were you i wouldn't
announce these betas to the list, i would simple design the game the way
i wanted and point. yep, there's the preordering issue, but you're a
different developer, you're not james north and you don't need to give
*the same* product that he was going to release, and also because some
peoples preordered it doesn't mean that all the requests should be added
just because they preordered it, or because you need to finish the
project fast.

hi tom et al,
can't you just release mota as it was in beta 18 i.e. finish the levels and be
done with it?
all these betas are now getting rediculous, i know you and I want mac support
as well Thomas but most of us are on windows, not Linux.
I'll be dead by the time you release a game you actually have created yourself
*smile* or too deaf to play.
You keep on saying how you are irritated with the project, and all of us on the
list here can empathize but surely if you just worked on the other levels beta
18
was fine as it was in my view, and then you can work on titles like an fps
game, that you as a developer, really wish to work on.
WIll
