Bundle the Software

[LingWitt]

It would be a good idea to contact Apple about bundling our (I hope you don't mind my use of that word) games with the Mac OS X distributions.

I think the odds of Apple agreeing to bundle our software with anything are not good. The best we can do is make sure we promote our software in the best way possible when it is complete.

Thanks for your interest though,
Mark.

They used QuickDraw 3D. :D

(If one person gets that joke, it was worthwhile posting it)

Brian worked for the quickdraw 3d (rave) team and acually your joke (:D)was a big factor since apple wanted a 3D game that was mac only and showing of their tech. and back in da day nanosaur was the only 3d game around on the mac ;)

getting a game bundled with apple is "not" possible, it has to be really great non violent original and so on and so on. but there are other places to get a game bundled, for example on an installation CD for gamepads (macally maybe).

If Mark S. comes out with a revised edition of his book, your game would be good to add to the CD-ROM. At some point, I'd also like to offer a mega Mac Dev CD-ROM and include it as well.

Dead on about Nanosaur. :p
