Payback ported to Linux & Windows
« on: July 09, 2002, 07:50:21 PM »
On the payback site, http://www.apex-designs.net/payback_x86_report.html, Dan Olson says:
For the past six weeks I've been working to produce versions of Payback for both Windows and Linux. The work is coming along nicely, and these versions will combine the best parts of both the Intent version and the Amiga version. The 16bpp software renderer showcases the improved alpha blending and special effects of the Intent version, while the hardware renderer from the Amiga version will provide higher visual quality for those with 3D accelerators.

The Windows and Linux versions of Payback will also provide some additional features not contained in previous versions. Currently planned features include:

Support for resolutions above 1024x768.
Support for anti-aliasing to make the game look even better.
LAN play, so you can run down your friends with stolen vehicles.

The software renderer is quickly nearing 100% completion (you can see some screenshots to the right), and the hardware renderer will follow soon after. After that, the main focus will be optimizing and putting the finishing touches on the game so that it runs as quickly and smoothly as possible in both Windows and Linux. Be sure to check back soon!
