That presupposes you could make games of equal quality with this thing.
Considering the time pressures Richard and crew are facing, I wouldn't bank
on that. There'll almost certainly be a substantial divide in quality. The
moment you use an engine of any kind, you lose flexibility by default.

Yes, .NET 1.1 and 2.0 is technically supported on Win 98.
However, I am not sure as to how long I will be able to continue support

Hi Shaun,
Interesting enough if style games are the easiest to program.
Give me a command line C++ compiler, and I could really crank one out
for dos Linux, etc with no trouble.
I'd make plenty of them except that there doesn't seam to be much of a

Another suggestion is that since you are turning sight to sound then the
