Yohandi, you say "any developer could create a side scroller" as though

Hi,
Yes, but I really wouldn't like such a mod. Mysteries of the Ancients
really isn't like Mario, and you would be hard pressed to come up with a
soundpack that sounds as good as the game does now.

Fair enough. my position is very similar regarding modern 3rd person or fps

My opinion is that the game is great the way it is and there is no need to
make drastic changes in it.
There was never a blind friendly side scroller so I think having a swoosh
