I find myself agreeing with SOME of what 'just some guy' says. but not in the way he says it. I think that a number of people must feel, if not let down, then at least of being strung along, not I think by Jim, but by Prolific.
Jim has every right to take as long has he likes to finish, or not, the work he has in hand. As he says, we "... have no way of knowing what is happening on a hundred different fronts", his business is his business, and that is as it should be. Jim is a one man band, Prolific on the other hand, employ more than one person, (I assume!) and therefore must be considered in a different light. We, as punters, have no way of knowing the arrangements between developer and publisher, but as all bug reports for the wide screen beta go directly to Prolific, it must be assumed that they are directly involved in the production of its final version. However, that source for new information has also completely dried up ....... as others have said, we are feeling very starved.
It now appears that Prolific are to produce a Goldfish aquarium and a DVD. I would prefer them to sort out the existing problems first.
As regards this forum, it MUST continue! I, like many others, check almost daily, sometimes many times a day. Just cause we are not posting doesn't mean we are not reading. I don't believe in posting just for the sake of it, that's sad.
And to end with, the one thing I long for most is the 3D background, what can we do Jim to re-arouse your enthusiasm?
