Waiting for a Darwinia

I just love the retro look of Darwinia I've pre-ordered it on steam, but can't wait for it to come out, so I've been looking for illicit copies of it. I thought I had one, but it turns out to have been released as a 'Don't steal our game' exercise. Even then, it's just increased my desire to have the game. The interation model has been changed in the 1.3 version - you can use either gestures or an icon based environment. I use the gestures when I've got a mouse, the Icons when I'm on the touchpad of the laptop. It works quite well providing I tweak the configuration file, putting RenderLandscapeMode = 1 (corrected 2005-12-20) into the settings.txt file. Otherwise I get a crash in iglicd32.dll when you enter the game. I'll probably have to apply this to the game once it's released.
Correction 2005-12-20 - the entry should read RenderLandscapeMode = 1
