Hi Thomas,
It was a while ago and I may be mistaken but I think he doesn't want the
game distributed as it was written in vb6 so would not work without effort
on newer computers, and he doesn't want the annoyance of many people
complaining about it.
I also thought he was planning on updating it.

Hi Damien,
Smile. No harm no fowl. Just thought I'd pass on what Josh posted
quite some time back regarding Shellshock. For what It's worth I don't
understand Josh's reasons, but as a fellow developer and list
moderator I'm honor bound to uphold the list rules and guidelines.
Like you I feel it is Josh's game and he has the right to decide to do
with it as he pleases.
Cheers!

Hey,
OK, I stand corrected on that and am sorry for any confusion. Usually
there
is no problem redistributing abandonware games (in fact as we all know I
have taken over some of them). However I also understand from a dev's
viewpoint that it is their game so in effect they can do whatever they
like
with it, so wasn't quite sure of the technicalities behind this
particular
issue.
I shall refrain from making it publicly available.
Regards,
Damien.
