Just asking to myself, but I'm happy the work on this game is great.

Great news for all involved looking at the Wave statement it's all good RWS have given their blessing for the physical release.

"POSTAL™ developers Running With Scissors have given their blessing for this brand new no compromises version for Dreamcast, built with love from the original source code."

Does a "no compromises version" suggest network support, probably not. Might be just PR copy but you never know.

I'm starting to wonder whether it was a social media campaign which I took a bit too seriously :?

They definitely know it exists - They speak about the possibility of a physical release of it in their 50th podcast from a couple of weeks back - But aside from the occasional twitter like, there's not really been anything from that end at all, which is pretty disheartening to be honest.
Wanted to reach out and say thanks again for porting postal to the Dreamcast! :) Now if we can get RWS to give you postal 2 source so you can port that next :lol: Postal 2 was actually my first experience with that series, its fantastic.

Also anyone who has twitter should go like this post https://twitter.com/RWSbleeter/status/1 ... 5460142080. :D
