Since you're here, I have to ask: whatever happened to the nD? If it failed, why did you just abandon the forums instead of letting people know? I mean, your credibility was already hurt because of Bob's Game's publicity stunt fiasco, why didn't you give any assurances to the community there? More importantly, after 2 projects which just vanished without any explanation from the author (you), how do you expect anyone to believe you'll deliver this product?

The nD is now the virtual console inside the "bob's game" RPG that you play the minigames on. It still exists, and I am developing a small SDK for others to create games for it. I was genuinely talking to the Dingoo (Chinese handheld) manufacturers about making a custom handheld and had them agree to a very good price point, but I failed to get any traction trying to get investment since I had no idea what I was doing, and I was too early for Kickstarter at the time (I am glad, it would have been way too much responsibility!). Since then Android devices have improved so much so quickly I don't think it makes sense anymore to bother developing a Linux based handheld. I would rather see something like an OUYA handheld for $50, as developing for Android is a very pleasant process and there is already a great library. This puzzle game was playable on bobsgame.com as a Java applet for 6 month in the context of playing it in the stadium by using the nD handheld.
