Game size as an option? Are you hinting u plan to give us a choice on how many map tiles are in the world? That would me amazing if so - we can have more or less cramped ways of playing

Yes, the 60x40 map size limitation is one of the primary reasons why I wanted to do this, the other being the 4 wizards limit.

Can you make it so you can see more of the play area during the game? That is the main problem I have with the game as it stands.
You could do it like the Implode remake that reuses the original graphics, but allows a much higher resolution:
I'm not planning to do that at this time, sorry.
However, increasing ONLY the map area while the rest of the interface stays unchanged, is probably a good idea and doable as a future addition, once everything else already works.
Making everything on the interface tiny is something I prefer to avoid because that leads to hard to use, counterintuitive interfaces where it takes minutes to find which tiny icon is the function I want to access.
For example in the screenshot above, the buttons are so small I'd have a hard time clicking any and misclicking is never a good thing for strategy games.

I agree things are too small for the interface there, but you could just double (or even triple) the size of everything except the map.

Quote:Hi Seravy,
Unfortunately this is not possible, as we have no way of knowing/checking which keys, copies etc would be licensed and which would not. As such, we cannot offer it as a separate purchase.
Cheers
Too bad, I'm not too happy to hear that.
gog seems to be letting me buy com for 3$ even though i don't own mom on gog? couldn't I just do this and move the files where they need to go?
edit: nevermind, gog will in fact not let this purchase occur, clicking harder didn't fix it :-p hah
Yes, moving files should work (in fact I wouldn't be surprised if CoM included the MoM files anyway.) assuming GoG allows you to download and install it, which I have no idea about.
