Jacco,<br><br>I know this is quite late, but I'm sorry to hear you lost your job... Cuts are happening way too often nowadays.<br><br>Sorry again, man. Btw, haven't told you this before, nice game you put out.<br><br>Here's a possible project to cheer you up with :) Develop a software "by-the-book" implementation of OpenGL 1.2 standard with future hardware support expansion.. for the PPC.. and sell it back to M$ ;)<br>

Hey Phantom, what ever happened to your Decent port?  Maybe you can finish it while you are out of work.  I would say, "sorry about your job", but you seem happy to be fired and it sounded like your boss was an asshole, so I will say, "good luck on finding a better job" :)

Techmage,<br><br>You're right, I'm not very sorry about loosing that job. Problem is, I do feel dumped a bit, and that's never good. Yesterday I applied for a job, and they want me, so all I have to do is say 'yes' and sign a contract. So things are going fine.<br><br>I am considering going solo though; I think I could earn enough money making PPC stuff. I'm not yet sure about that however.<br><br>Doing an OpenGL port would be interesting in that case. :) Any good 3D engine for that matter.<br><br>- Jacco.

OpenGL on a Pocket PC? Now that would kick major arse.  While you are at it make a Direct3D port too.  Oh and when I said Decent port, I ment Descent(you know the old dos space fighter game?), I thought I heard a while back that you were making a port of Descent. :)<br><br>Oh, and if you can make good money making solo Pocket PC games, do it!

Phantom sorry to hear about that job thing:(<br><br>It probably would have been nice to have a job to fall back on when you are trying to figure out what you want to do with the rest of your life(work-wise).<br><br>Of course, if you are looking into making your own PPC Software company, you have our full support, whatever you need that we can provide.(besides large sum's of money:))
