That's the thing, isn't it ... there is a great buzz around this, like Duke Nukem Forever!If I had known this thing was going to evolve into such an enigma, I would have saved the file.
Having spent this much time on it, I'd really have to be crazy not to finish it up. Besides, as others have said, it's a very fun game to play irregardless if it has GL Shaders or Bloom or Translucent bumpmapped refractor particles. It's just fun. I still think so after all this time. One of the reasons I tried to put humor throughout the game was to always keep it lighthearted even in supposedly "scary" parts.
Actually, real artists never ship.
Businessmen ship.
