Hi,
To be honest, I never had a problem with the game at all.
I loved playing it (When I still had it). I loved the thrill of always
finding your way quickly because of all the random health drops,
touching walls and still standings. The sounds are great, too.
Of course there were some little minor things (For example, pressing the
in game hotkeys in the main menu would cause errors), and in one
instance I've seen it just not working at all on a friends' system,
where no keys were accepted, no graphics were shown, etc.
But the time it did work for me, I really liked it and would hope that
something like this would be recreated and sold.
Now that's just me. I seem to prefer FPS games over any other. Since I
play quite a lot of mainstream games, I seem to be OK with that.
However, I'm not saying that I don't like Side scrollers. I do enjoy
those, but I just seem to prefer FPS type games.
So, my view on the whole topic.
Kevin

well to be fair I think the game needs a full rewrite.
On some systems especially thse with hd cards, I trialed the
registered game on a friend's system with an hidef card and the same
on my system and to be honest its never worked right.
There is one room between the one with the mines in the lab and
another door that keeps going on and on.
The game was programed in macromedia procrapper, and while good,
crashed even on my analog system, with the pack and stuff.
It was a good try at a concept hybred but I think its reaching the
limitations of its current engine myself.
To play this game you really need a non hd sound card on a single core
with 512mb of ram for best performance.
The game is playable but if not you can play it but stabality hmmm.
The graphics and sounds are top notch but I still don't aggree with
health dropping when you move round or stand still.
I know that mainstreams may have this stuff but since it takes ages
for us to really move without losing our way well.
Also hitting walls shouldn't make you loose power either.
Also the power stations were really annoying, if you could pick up
items like in sod and use them wheen needed as well that would rock.
I have a full coppy somewhere but I have not touched it much because
of all this.

Hi Michael.
there is nothing on the blog or anywhere else saying that the game is
freeware, and the version and setup file seem the same as they always
were, but equally your right, there are no links to buy it anymore
either.
I personally think it's just that they haven't finished with the site
and haven't put a paypal button there, sinse if the game was freeware
I assume there would be some sort of message, but I suggest you check
to be certain either by leaving a comment on the blog or by e-mailing
thomas with the address in the terraformers' manual.
Beware the grue!

Hi all,
I have a question regarding the game.
Originally it was Shareware, where you needed to buy it and would
get a file you had to copy somewhere.
Then the original site went offline for a while. And now they are
back, but when I went to it there were download links, but no info
or warning that what I could download was shareware.
So, what is the current status of the game? Can it now be played
without limits, or is there still the need to buy it and if so,
where is it done?
