No, it is under development.  I should have removed the option when I built that last exe.<br><br>Dan East

landscape is hard for me to use for anything, particularly a game! why do you want it?  This is not an accusatory question, i just wanna know.

If you'd notice, some of the text runs off the screen because the in-game resolution is higher than that of the PPC.  This means the edges are cut off a lot, some text is unreadable. Landscrape (yes, spelling, but not really) would make it readable, and would provide a larger area for the game screen. The controls would be messed up, but I would have included it too.

Moose:<br><br>With more screen to draw in, you can bet the framerate would be cut in half.  Based on that alone, it's pretty obvious why Dan did not enable it.<br>
