Oh, that's sad if true. Precursors had bags of promise. I was really looking forward to it, dangit. :(

If the developer does happen to go belly up, if they don't have a publisher what would stop them from releasing the code to open source? I know that is a pipe dream, I just hate seeing some great work go to waste because of $$$. I can see how it can be rough though, if you don't have some good financial backing behind your effort you will never get the word out so people know about your game to get people to buy/play it.Still holding out hope :)

Yeah I read that in the forums the other day but it isn't official as far as I know so I guess there code be some hope :) Hate to see good games die, this is when I think releasing code to the community and have them finish it. The game looks pretty complete already.

I thought they were supposed to release it in Russia in Oct? That would at least make me feel better because then maybe the developer could provide access for us to translate the game by editing some files.

Good news. The Russian version comes out on 4th of December. No mention of the international release though. Time to learn Russian comrades. :D :D

Well Sergey said he would get to my questions this week so we'll see if I can also post a Q&A this week as well. But it will be very promising to see precursors released in Russia this week. I just hope it sells well so they will think about translating it.
