I wanted to say that I really enjoy Soldak's games and wanted to ask if there is a difference in GOG release and direct Soldak's site release and what they change.

If you are talking about Din's Legacy, our version and GOG's version are identical.

If you are talking about previous games, the only difference is that in GOG's version it will only ask for a key if you go into the multiplayer stuff.

Me: Great, over 400 emails to go through from the holidays. Email App: I can help with that! I'll just update and stop downloading new emails!

I'm hoping to release an updated Din's Legacy demo tomorrow.

One of the nice things about working on Drox 2, it tends to run at 500+ fps on my dev machine.

I added some collision into Drox 2 yesterday. Now it damages your ship (and the enemy) when you run into enemies. There is a side effect though: ramming enemies and destroying them is fun.

Absolutely radical! Any plans for gear to improve ramming capability? Perhaps tied to Structure? I'm sure Lithosoids would be very happy about that!

Yeah, that's been a popular suggestion, so it's likely to happen in some manner or another.

Apparently I can be pretty mean in Drox 2. The Cortex declared war and destroyed my ship several times, triggering the lose condition. I retaliated by Grey Gooing their home planet.

I got most of my tax stuff for the next month or so done today, so that means I get to work on Drox 2 for this rest of the week.

I added energy cannon type of weapons to Drox 2 this week. They are thermal, pulse weapons that are unguided, but they fire very quickly (4 times a second).
