Post subject: Krypton Egg: Shareware status revoked? |
 |
|
Anyone have an opinion on this? I just received this email:
Can the shareware status of a game be retroactively revoked?  |

We host the shareware version, me guess they think wrongly we offer the full game.
Maybe attend them to that fact?
It would be the first time ever that a site get problems proposing the shareware version. |

I dunno. Maybe since they're remaking it they want even the shareware version to be on selected websites only. The game is pretty old to be remade but but hey who knows what goes on in the minds of giant corporations these troubled days lol.
Btw I didn't know you got knighted emmzee  |

I emailed them back, and they were okay with keeping the shareware version on the site as long as I linked to their new site ...

And included a little text file with the game.  So, good compromise. |
