So, I see that you mention the possibility of online play maybe making it into the final version. Is this just wild speculation or is it actually something you've looked into?

I know there was some talk a while back about someone reverse engineering a driver for the 56K modem, but I really don't know what that means. Is it actually realistic to hope for online play in a homebrew DC game now?

I'm sure I don't need to say how cool it would be to be able to play dRxLax online. Playing with your friends in the same room is definitely better, but it's hard--for me at least--to get together enough people in my room who all want to play the game. I've only managed to play with 3 or more people twice and I think three is really how many you need for a good game, two doesn't quite cut it. Online would be perfect, better than AI even.

In any case, please keep up the good work on this game, it's one of my favorite DC games (when I can get together a bunch of people) and I'll be waiting in line for a pressed release of it if that ever comes to pass.

Modem play will be direct dial if I ever get around to making it. I'm not completely sure whether the Dreamcast modem supports answering calls, but I'll find out when I'm ready.

It's time to set the SH4 and CLX2 hearts on fire!
