Hello gamers, Over the last three days I have been buried under an increasing amount of emails regarding Mysteries Of the Aztecs with everything including suggestions, comments, questions, etc. Since it would take me all day to respond to each and everyone of you individually I have decided to try and compile a list of the more common or frequent questions regarding this game with answers as I see things right now.
1. Will I be able to play Mysteries of the Aztecs on Mac OS X without having to install Windows? Answer: No. At this time my development of the Java based game engine is far from complete. I still have a lot to research, test, and porting the game to Java 6 would only hinder my ability to release Beta 2 by late spring or early summer. 2. Will my product keys for Montezuma's Return still work with Mysteries Of The Aztecs? Answer: Yes. We are prepared to use the same key generation tool, license manager, and registration programs from the Monte project. 3. Will skeletons be able to parry your sword attacks? Answer: Probably not. At the moment I am going to arm the skeletons with more traditional Aztec weapons such as bows and arrows. This makes the skeleton warriors more deadly, have greater attack range, and it solves the complicated issue of totally reprogramming the A.I to do sword dueling. 4. Will there be bosses in Mysteries Of The Aztecs? Answer: Yes. I have already picked out some gods and goddesses from Aztec mythology I think will serve as bosses in the game. For ease of player playability I refer to the gods by there common English names such as King of the Dead, Queen of the Dead, Snake Goddess, etc... 5. Will Mysteries Of the Aztecs be a Side-Scroller? Answer: Undecided. A lot of gamers out there are asking us to make it a full fledged First Person game like Indiana Jones and Tomb Raider. On the other hands there is a sizable number of those who purchased Montezuma's Return and want a Side-Scroller. It is not for us an easy decision. 6. Will objects and monsters be randomly placed? Answer: This depends on if we do a Side-Scroller or FPS format. If we use the old Monte engine the answer is no. If we base the game on Genesis 3D, our FPS Engine, that feature is already built in by default. 7. Can I have a refund for the game? Answer: No. Once product keys have shipped we can no longer refund your purchase. The reason is that there is no way for us to protect against your pirating the game with your product key once we refund your purchase. 8. Can you upload the old Montezuma's Return game somewhere for us to download it for a while? Answer: No. This would be a violation to the copyright holders, our web hosting provider, and we agreed to remove all references to the game as soon as possible. We are sorry that we are no longer able to offer support, downloads, and development of Montezuma's Return, but we do feel our replacement product will be equally enjoyable to most gamers.
