Heard about about the port literally today at 3 and immediately downloaded it,
but I thought I’d have more time than literally disappearing the same day.Was inevitable though.Show’s not quite over yet, as of writing this the itch.io page is still live.
May that pseudonymous dev be blessed
Glad to see this get preserved somewhere. It’s always a shame when someone pours a lot of time and passion into a project like this only for it to get wiped from the internet once they get the cease-and-desist.
Did it get taken off itch.io?
Still there as of now.
Reddit wont let us talk about the game, but lemmy will. So here is an archived link to the excellent port.
I’m not aware - Reddit is blocking posts about it?
Lemmy will not let you post stuff that can get DMCA’ed. It will cause the lemmy instances to lose their hosting provider if they get too many DMCA notices.
A link to a different page that happens to have a download for something copyrighted is not itself DMCA-able. Well, in theory you could DMCA anything you want, and some companies are way too overzealous about it and fall into the “abusing the system” category, but I can’t imagine that this post would ever fall under their spotlight.
If anything, the Internet Archive would be served the DMCA request, because they’re the ones actually hosting the game files.
Google (and reddit) deals with tons and tons of those requests every day. Now, more than likely, Archive.org would be the one to remove it but that wouldn’t prevent whoever is contracted with the rights holder from sending it to hosting providers that link to it as well (after they find said link indexed in a search engine).

This port really is amazing. The level of detail in modernizing the game while keeping it faithful is awesome.
