That is too bad you feel that way. One of the things which makes Monty more
appealing is the restoration to the original as best as possible. Remember
that computers like today were not around in the seventies. This is not a
new concept either. At Wal-Mart, one can easily find restored Atari

Hi Michael,
I respect your opinions, but I do have some trouble understanding why
just because a game is old to sighted people why does it have to be old
and boring to many blind users that never had a first chance to play?
This kind of reminds me of my college dorm mates first reaction when

Well, keep in mind most of the delays were on Alchemy's part and not
mine. There has been very few days over the passed year I have not
worked on Monty at least a little.
I had to rewrite the game from scratch which of course slowed down
production, but I don't expect this recent

Hi Dark,
Agreed. Simply saying that someone does or does not like something
isn't just enough to sway a developer from his or her course. We would
like reasons backed up with concrete examples of why side-scrollers are
less desirable than an ultra modern FPS game. Is the reasoning have to

Hi Michael and all,
As I mentioned earlier I do respect your opinions, but I do disagree
with them somewhat. It would be helpful if you could explain to everyone
why you feel as you do. Opinions themselves aren't bad, but most of the

Hi William,
Yeah, I realise Raceway has been on the waiting list for an extremely
long time. Do remember most of that is the fault of Raceway's previous
owner. It has only been in my custity for a year, and for most of that
year I have been hopping between three different game projects: STFC,

AS an old owner of Raceway, that being two copies, I even wait longer if the

Hi Gary,
I know many people have interest in a net play feature, but I don't
simply have time to work that in to the 1.0 release.
One of the major factors I have elected not to make a net play feature
is that Microsoft is fasing out DirectPlay in DirectX 10 which games
like Topspeed use for
Hi Lisa,
Agreed. Side-scrollers are inherently much easier for us since we are
only interested in for general directions up, down, left, and right. It
is also easier to pinpoint where an item is as we can here it left or
right and only need to walk or jump in that general direction to grab
Hi Kerry,
Yes, but it is not available for download. James North actually had
Raceway to beta stage before he suddenly started over on the game.
I have the beta, but it isn't what you would call super great.

I am comparing it the newer games out there now. You see WE system, PS 3 and

I am sure tom is doing his best.
On a side note, I think once a game switches from dev to dev and its still
under development, that dev shouldn't incur the wrath from users over time on
the project that he didn't have, ie the time the other dev has spent on the
project in question shouldn't be

well we all learned the hard way what was best and what plainly sucked.

If a game in development switches devs then the time that the last dev put in

any reason why ms are killing direct play and what they will replace it with?
It will mean that stuff like topspeed multiplayer will be non playable.
Not sure about railracer, or any of the vipgameszone stuff, railracer has its
