Hey, thanks!  I've enjoyed the game myself.  DOWNFALL (the game that
inspired Fahrfall) has the same quality.

Right, it just doesn't work on a CoCo3.  I would like to support
that platform at some point, but it just isn't a priority for me at
the moment.  Honestly, I'm more interested in making sure that it
works on the Dragon, the CP400, and other "clone" machines ATM. :-)

I still have some other ideas to improve the gameplay and the rewards
system, as well as some "finishing touches" here and there.  I hope
to get back on it soon.  Lately I've put more energy into prepping
a Pelican Case for my CoCo stuff, so that Fahrfall and I can go on
the road... :-)
