Re: First impressions
I just heard about this game and got it after I played the demo. Very impressed. This is what D3 should have been - fewer puzzles and better graphics. It does seem a bit tedious at times but I enjoyed the overall impact - everything. Would like a rear view camera - maybe that will be in an update?

Re: Complier fro Win 7
Alter-fox,
I was never satisfied with the 3 single player levels I built. Was thinking of doing another one - if I can get everything working again on this Win 7 machine.
