Again, it took me less than 2 minutes to find the page and begin the install. It wasn't that time-consuming at all. And again, I suspect that the developer figured that as his games have been played in the past, people are familiar with his site and his links. I get that there are definitely times when more description or added links are needed, but in the case of a well-known developer, one which we've all seen before, it doesn't seem worth getting displeased about. I am currently in the process of developing a game myself, so from the development point of view, the 2 minutes it takes you to find it and downloaded can't hold a candle to the hours upon hours upon hours spent coding and debugging it.
