textures, effects and options turned on and at crazy speed, etc. this game is awesome. Shoot-em-ups are boring, glTron is fun, especially with other players on a large monitor. Many thanks to all concerned for this game.

Strongblade, I don't know if you've found it yet, but you can turn off the flying drone by going to the Video setting, detail, and turning off the Recognizer. >That< definitely speeds up play! I also recommend playing with four people on one keyboard (extended of course!) and one large monitor (we use a 20") and on Crazy speed. It's wild! It's also very quick...

and addictive game! Lovely feel, good sound, and runs wondrously on my humble G3. Does get a bit choppy though when playing with four people and a split screen... ;-) Thanks for this!
