and it is still developing. I'm planning to replace all borrowed images, and make an outstanding campaign!

BTW, there's a couple of contests going on:

Have you contacted Angelspit about this? He may be willing to make an announcement on the main site if this is a new release.

That's a logical step, releasing you from the grip of Ubi. Good Luck with that. :tsup:

Back from the dead? Maybe.

There's an M$ program out there that will let you run an emulated PocketPC on your computer. I used it to try out the demo. I enjoyed it, despite not being able to read Russian.

Is there a possibility that you can run this on a regular phone, really want to know that. And if not, can you try and make it work on normal phones..?

Even if it were possible to make a quick port for normal phones, it would be very impractical in terms of GUI and controls... without a touch-screen.
