Hi Michael, /Well, refunds are a tricky thing here as James North took in about $2,000 in sales for Montezuma's Revenge, and I never saw a dime of that money so I don't feel I owe those people a cent as USA Games wasn't responcible for refunds. Now we did take in another $1,500 in sales for Montezuma's Revenge ourselves, but that money was put towards sounds, music, and software upgrades etc. So we don't really have the cash to refund those customers either.
That said, I'm not absolutely certain who is and is not for an FPS game these days. When we took a poll the results came to 35 for side-scroller and 25 for FPS. Clearly the majority who voted were in favor of a side-scroller, but that's not to say every single person who voted for the side-scroller are completely against an FPS. Certainly some are, but how many I don't know. Now, that's only about 60 people who actually voted on the issue. As I've got about 150 preorders that's only 1/3 of the total preorders accounted for assuming every person who voted actually preordered the game. That additional 90 people is enough to seriously swing the vote one way or the other. Without hearing from those 80 I don't really know what they want. At the time I just put them in the undecided catagory and forgot about it. Personally, I'm of a mind to just write the game my way, release it, and send everyone on preorder status a key. If people don't like it then they'll just have to cut their losses. That's the risk people take when preordering software. Cheers!
