This is surprising, but since they were doing most of their dev work on Windows (whats up with that) instead of Linux, I can see where my faith was shaky. Interestingly enough, I compiled the Nebula engine several hours before this dissapointing bit of news on SuSE 7.1, and I would like to encourage a company to create a multiplatform game using this engine, and remind Nevrax that they could possibly salvage some of the Nebula code for their future game. In fact, maybe Crystal Space could use Nebula too. I hope someone at Linuxgames emails Radon Labs to find out why they let this happen, becuase I was planning on buying this game – I really miss 3d mmorpgs since I no longer use Windows.

Last time I talked to them, they seemed to be up on the Linux port. Maybe it got abandoned.[br]
Ahh well, but I can say we got definite confirmation from philos labs that Alcatraz WILL come to Linux

a linux version is available. why the hell would they not want to publish it? it’s not like there’s any more work involved.

That’s dumb! Why would a company want to do something like that? They could even put the binaries on the same CD as the Windows version like ID software is doing. If they don’t have a Linux version then I’m not going to get the damn thing on Windows. That’s where I stand and that’s final.
