It is people like Justin who clearly do not know the first thing about business especially in the software development realm that are the problem. I deal with software developers all the time and have never had a problem except for one, who fortunately is no longer around thankfully. Justin, you obviously do not keep up with this company, so knock off damaging their reputation. I have become friends with the developer, and they went out of the way to get the game working on my computer when they really did not have to do that. They could have just given me my money back. So, your credibility is down by quite a bit. > On May 30, 2018, at 9:10 PM, Justin Jones <atreides...@gmail.com> wrote: > > A whole lot of white-knighting is going on here... > > A lesson on business ethics: when a company, Out of Sight Games in > this instance, takes money, they are legally bound to honor the > promises they made.
