Hi Thomas, this is really interesting. To be fair though, before Swamp, we did have mouse support in Audio Quake, more specifically, Jedi Quake. :)
So while these weren't the only FPS titles with mouse support, they sure sound cool and I wish they were on Mac! Thanks so much for the info!… Smiles, Cara :) --- View my Online Portfolio at: http://www.onemodelplace.com/CaraQuinn Follow me on Twitter! https://twitter.com/ModelCara On May 3, 2013, at 9:56 PM, Thomas Ward <thomasward1...@gmail.com> wrote: Hi Charles, You and many people probably forgot but while all the list was focused on Montezuma's Revenge James North wrote a simple game in the inter rum that was a prototype of a game he was working on simply called the Mouse Demo. You might say this Mouse Demo was the forerunner of Swamp because you would walk around a graveyard with a shotgun killing zombies. You would walk forward/back using the w and s keys and the mouse would turn you left/right and would fire your shotgun. It was a cool game and ahead of its time by at least 8 years. We wouldn't see anything like that again until Jeremy Kaldobsky came up with Swamp. Now, I've thought many times of recreating that game, expanding it, and continuing the work James North had planned, but got bogged down with MOTA, Raceway, etc. Now, I'm not sure if I should finish that zombie demo game, because Swamp is already the same basic concept only better. Lol. Cheers!
