That's just it. After Mysteries of the Ancients is done all of the games I
think any reasonable person could blame you.

I'm afraid I'd much rather Mota currently continues as is, as a fully
featured modern side scroller than an fps game.
Not that it would be the end of the world, I just think there are features
of the side scrolling genre which haven't been tapped in audio yet.
I only suggested releasing
