Release id #248337 : Parallaxian Preview +DG
I'm not sure Kodiak has stopped working on this, he mentioned working on it on the 3rd of December, nothing on X/Forums would suggest he's stopped working on it or the c64. |

Feels like deja-vu - a whole drama war already blew up about Parallaxian on Lemon years ago. This is the famous game preview which 'invented' CIA timer-based NMI interrupts and invented 'toggle-plexing' and invented vertical parallax..
Doesn't make sense that someone can work with scene members and give previews to crackers and then pretend like they never heard of anything like this before. Totally valid to be mad that a trusted partner leaked their preview though. Just not the denigration of CSDB or releases in general. |

Nobody is questioning the natural order of things, games get cracked/released etc. It's fun and part of the c64.
I don't think it really does cause harm to full products, especially with the year of grace, so no complaints here.
The thing that didn't sit well was the faux justification.
Either support creators and encourage or take the view that you'll screw them over for any reason you can stick it to the man etc.
Not reaching out and confirming that it is a dead project, how hard would it have been?
I would hope for some collaboration around making things for a platform that is very difficult to justify supporting.
After all less nice things being made = less things to show your skill/get fun out of cracking/packaging, surely that's not in any ones interest unless the goal is to kill the platform and spoil everyone's fun, even your own? |

Move on. The full game will be "cracked" as well. |

As is the way.
No discussion to be had then. |
