Indie game on "Indie" OSXeon3D05/04/2010 - 22:32

Hi!

I for one would like to see the game ported to Haiku (http://www.haiku-os.org).

Even tho it's in alpha stage (with the 2nd alpha release scheduled for the near future), it is a quite stable OS. As any "starting" OS (even tho Haiku has been cooking for more than 7 years) there is a lack of applications in some areas, and one of them are games.

The porting work shouldn't be that hard, and as one of the few quality games available for the platform, I think it should sell well since Haiku is gaining followers by the day. :)

What do you think?

Interesting. But it doesn't seem like the OS will get many customers, and it'd take a bit of money to port correctly.

I'd love to see it work, though.

Yeah, interesting idea but 2D Boy isn't developing WoG any more.

They started porting it to iPod and it should have been released by now but I guess it isn't going to happen.
