This game is driving me nuts, because I suck at it. :-)
anyway, some info:
1) It ran pretty smooth.
580 FPS when disabling the VSync (Core 2 Duo E6600, Radeon X1650XT)
2) Sound defaulted to FreeAudio, and played without hiccups, delays, etc. (Windows XP). The default background music isn't my taste though, it starts getting old real quick
3) the uninstall feature ran into some problems, saying it could not remove all files/folders.
The "log" button in the uninstaller returned this:
but when I checked out the 'SOS Software' folder manually, I found the following:
C:\Program Files\SOS Software\Rockfall DX (WIP)\Data
C:\Program Files\SOS Software\Rockfall DX (WIP)\UnInstall.log
C:\Program Files\SOS Software\Rockfall DX (WIP)\un_r4dx_setup_20042.exe
C:\Program Files\SOS Software\Rockfall DX (WIP)\Data\config.ini
C:\Program Files\SOS Software\Rockfall DX (WIP)\Data\Profiles
C:\Program Files\SOS Software\Rockfall DX (WIP)\Data\Profiles\Administrator.prof
So... It appears that your uninstaller didn't take all files into consideration that are created later on by the game itself. That's a fairly major issue, since people (rightfully) expect a program to clean up after itself when uninstalling.
4) The reoslution selector gave like 30+ options, but many of the 'major' ones that one might expect (like 1024x768) were missing. Not that big of a deal, except you may want to consider breakup up the resolution, color & refreshrate options into three seperate selectors so you don't spend forever cycling through the list to find out that the one you're looking for doesn't exist.
You could even make the 16 bit / 32 bit color a radio button. (e.g. 'thousands of colors' <-> 'millions of colors')
Or you could use a pull-down menu rather than the current way of iterating through the list of resolutions, that way it's a lot faster to see if the resolution you're looking for is even an option without manually having to flip through the entire list.
I did see some options that I had no idea that my system even supported. :-?
