Only concern I have with the current torque project is that it's a shooter. Which despite its differences to the average arena FPS/TPS game is still in the same genre as many of the big commercial games which it will be in direct competition with.

Whether Garage games will be interested in it for their marketing really depends. They already have 2 commercial FPS made with it, and shooters are what their engine is known and originaly built for, so they may not actually be all that interested. Hard to say at this point, there's definately a big risk involved. And I do think that AA was dropped mainly through lack of enthusiasm when sales proved far less than expected.

I submitted to that robosoft 3 app, and several hundred web sites, and we submitted to a few others, the only money we spent was on download.com and that was it I think.
