Post by: Remo on May 23, 2007, 10:23:10 pm: Probably copyright.... Im guessing a big corp somehow got the legal ownership of it..... It's just sad that you could not continue with it...

Yes, except that the company isn't big. I fully understand that they own the game/brand/whatever. I just don't understand why they cared about my remake but none of the others. I'll take it as a compliment... ;)

Post by: cyberkilla on May 25, 2007, 09:21:32 pm: Yeh, just change the name of it:P

There are plenty of space invaders and pacman clones around.

Post by: EgonOlsen on May 25, 2007, 11:09:25 pm: I would have to change the name, the levels, the sound effects and some of the graphics. Too much work IMHO. I'll rather concentrate on something new if i find the time.

Post by: cyberkilla on May 26, 2007, 02:53:05 pm: Yeh, I suppose you're right.

It is still frustrating that they can do this.

Post by: cyberkilla on June 04, 2007, 02:49:48 pm: I think that we should compose a list of things that they would like done, then at least we can find out what
people are working on.

I like the idea of having JPCT on its own, then extra modules for other things.
That way, you can have simplicity if needed, and choose exactly what is needed for your project.
I have an uncanny ability to state the obvious:)

Post by: Remo on June 05, 2007, 01:02:41 am: Well I was just kidding around but there are some cool projects that should continue to be there along with jPCT such as the skeletal API and Todds dev kit.
