Incredible to see this project being worked on, i literally grew up with this game in a small but extremely active online community of people. Played daily for most of my teen years going by the name Dave-<StOnEd> stoned being my clan tag. I think i remember blade runner from back then as well, assuming the name on these forums is the same guy. Crazy to see someone working on this as it played a huge part of my life (mainly the people i met through it) around 20 years ago now.
Keep up the great work man, hope everything works out.
