And back to the original post... I played it and it is pretty fun. At
$20 online, I think I'll pass for now, but maybe in the future. Since
sound doesn't work in linux on my laptop, I tried the Windows version in
Vista and it actually works. Interestingly enough, it seems like the
game was made by a few computer geeks who formed a small company. They
make a few other games (cross-compatible) which I'm going to try soon
also. At $4 a pop, that's a steal IMO.
Well, I'm in my programming class now, and it's back to acting like I'm
paying attention like I haven't taken the class twice before.
Try the demo out. You might like it.
