by the time this thing actually DOES come out, it'll likely
be a last ditch effort to try and recoup some of the costs
that went into making it to begin with.

It's commendable to wait until the product is ready before
releasing it. However, too long of delay and you risk
using an outdated graphics engine that will definitely
expose it's age the moment it's released.

On the plus side, a TRS-80 will probably run it in
full resolution at about 120 FPS
