Thanks, you've made your point. I think that's enough for this thread.

You see, a company providing funding isn't always necessary in this day and age. When developers are serious about something, they can turn to other sources such as crowdfunding. The devs are serious about DaemonClaw, hence the crowdfunding campaign.

The devs are NOT serious about Metro Siege, therefore no crowdfunding campaign, no money, and no interest in timely development.

I would never waste my time trying to get them a publisher. They're a scatterbrain bunch, not able to focus on a project to get things done.
I didn't miss it because it's not relevant to my point that you didn't address. You are still complaining about the lack of professionalism in a self-funded project.

There are three further posts on this off-topic after you posted that directive.


Does that directive apply only to me, or to all others here as well?

think you will find I asked a general question that covered both the subject of the main reason for the thread and the other that you mentioned and got a reply.

When something can be bought, it has to be offered for sale. I'm well aware of Amiga world's "two more weeks" meme. Metro Siege is a good "What If" retro.

I tested the Metro Siege's 3-level demo on my PiStorm-RPi 4B-Emu68-A500 Rev6A (with ECS Denise upgrade) and it works fine.

I look forward to "Super Final Fight".

Final Fight Enhanced is hard coded for 2MB Chip RAM equipped Amigas, hence knocking out 1 MB Chip RAM capable A500 Rev 6A (ECS Agnus A, OCS Denise) majority. I played Final Fight Enhanced on my A1200.

A500 Rev 6A with Fast RAM is a no-go for Final Fight Enhanced.

A500 rev 6A is the definitive A500 model which makes up the majority of the Amiga models.

My last Amiga purchase in the 1990s is the A3000 which I sold in 1996.

Was a textbook case of "devs are testers" - i know well because was part of the devs (graphics and music)

You're a queer sort of a rooster. Strutting around expecting everything to be your way or the highway. How about you read back through your own posts and maybe the penny will drop champ.

Says it all, really.
That is simply ego feeding, no human being would not mind some of it, is so normal that should not even be mentioned and is not an entirely bad thing ^^
