Hi Zack, Thanks for saying so. It is always nice to know someone else actually shares my opinions. As for going back to Windows I don't see that realistically happening. For one thing I can't afford to upgrade to Visual Studio 2010 Pro, it isn't very accessible to boot, and I'd much rather use open source development tools like MinGW and Codeblocks rather than return Microsoft's over priced, increasingly less accesible ones, just to produce games for a platform I no longer use daily. Besides that I'm sure we can produce something fairly decent with the engine we now have. It is just a matter of debugging certain issues like the crashes on exit, maybe adjust some settings in OpenAL to try and get a more natural sounding pan effect, find a better way to handle input, whatever. I'm sure it all can be done with what we have once we test and debug it a bit. I don't think we really have to go back to DirectX etc to produce a good commercially viable game.
