Hi Sadd,
Unfortunately no. The game is written in Microsoft's C# .NET language
and uses SlimDX as a .NET wrapper for DirectX. While it would be
possible to port the game to Mono for the Mac and use something like
SDL .NET for input and audio output I doubt BPC is really interested
in rewriting the game's core at this late date to support Linux and
Mac OS. As an avid Linux user myself I know exactly how you feel about
having your personal favorite OS ignored by the majority of game
developers. Fortunately, we still have the option of using VMPlayer
etc to at least run Windows applications in a virtual machine.

Assunto: [Audyssey] Release Date Set For Three-D Velocity

The following was posted today by Munawar on the audiogames.net forums. I
have no other information at this time.



The release date for Three-D Velocity has been determined. We anticipate a
release
on or before November 15th, 2010. Get ready to be thrown into a world where
everything
from betrayal to death is possible, where you can't just close your eyes and
pretend it's not happening, where you stand one final, slim chance against
the world's worst nightmare come true, and where the only hope for humanity
is a team of the best fighter
jet pilots and military personnel called Storm Falcon. With just one
aircraft, the
fate of the world, starting with the fate of the world's superpower, is in
your hands.

As the game enters the final testing phase, we are doing all we can to
ensure that
the release is as problem-free as possible. The full game will no longer use
the
Web Installer because of reported problems while downloading the setup
program. Instead,
we have opted to allow the user to download the full game directly from the
site,
with both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries packaged into one installer. Just like
the Web
Installer, the full install will make sure you have all the necessary
prerequisites
before it will allow you to install the game.

Three-D Velocity can run on Windows XP, Windows Vista (32-bit and 64-bit),
and Windows
Seven (32-bit and 64-bit.) Windows 2000 and earlier are no longer supported.

Based on your continued feedback, we have fixed several bugs and made
countless improvements
to the game. We would like to thank all of you who took the time to send in
suggestions
and constructive criticism. After two and a half years of development, we
are finally
ready to roll out the first ever fully accessible fighter jet simulation for
blind
and visually impaired gamers.

Three-D Velocity will retail for $50.00 USD, plus any tax and processing
fees. We
estimate the final price to be near $53.00 USD.

There will be a kick off sale on this title, whose sale price is yet to be
determined.

Note: If you participated in the Documentation Test Cycle with BPC and
qualified for
a fifty percent discount on the game, this discount can ONLY be applied to
the full
retail price and will NOT be applied to the discounted price.

Three-D Velocity is not available on physical media at this time.

of the release. Subscription details are on our home page.

The following was posted today by Munawar on the audiogames.net forums. I
have no other information at this time.



The release date for Three-D Velocity has been determined. We anticipate a
release
on or before November 15th, 2010. Get ready to be thrown into a world 
where

everything
from betrayal to death is possible, where you can't just close your eyes 
and

pretend it's not happening, where you stand one final, slim chance against
the world's worst nightmare come true, and where the only hope for 
humanity

is a team of the best fighter
jet pilots and military personnel called Storm Falcon. With just one
aircraft, the
fate of the world, starting with the fate of the world's superpower, is in
your hands.

As the game enters the final testing phase, we are doing all we can to
ensure that
the release is as problem-free as possible. The full game will no longer 
use

the
Web Installer because of reported problems while downloading the setup
program. Instead,
we have opted to allow the user to download the full game directly from 
the

site,
with both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries packaged into one installer. Just 
like

the Web
Installer, the full install will make sure you have all the necessary
prerequisites
before it will allow you to install the game.

Three-D Velocity can run on Windows XP, Windows Vista (32-bit and 64-bit),
and Windows
Seven (32-bit and 64-bit.) Windows 2000 and earlier are no longer 
supported.


Based on your continued feedback, we have fixed several bugs and made
countless improvements
to the game. We would like to thank all of you who took the time to send 
in

suggestions
and constructive criticism. After two and a half years of development, we
are finally
ready to roll out the first ever fully accessible fighter jet simulation 
for

blind
and visually impaired gamers.

Three-D Velocity will retail for $50.00 USD, plus any tax and processing
fees. We
estimate the final price to be near $53.00 USD.

There will be a kick off sale on this title, whose sale price is yet to be
determined.

Note: If you participated in the Documentation Test Cycle with BPC and
qualified for
a fifty percent discount on the game, this discount can ONLY be applied to
the full
retail price and will NOT be applied to the discounted price.

Three-D Velocity is not available on physical media at this time.
