I'm not sure if anyone has actually picked up on the main reason for MA3. I recreated the background as 3D objects because, just like 10 years ago, 3D stereovision is the Next Big Thing (only this time it looks like it's for real). In order for LCD glasses to work, the video card has to output a totally steady 120hz (60hz per eye). It can't do that if my program is making its own adjustments to the frame rate. Therefore, it must have the ability to get out of the way and let the hardware choose the frame rate.
