[Steve]

OMG... Damien :D

[Blade Nightflame]

Oh god. Using the Doom engine? I think I'll pass this like the plague. -.-;
Unless Damien can prove otherwise that this is actually a solid little gem.

[Amakou]

Oh hey, the source code is only $777.00.....:rolleyes:

~Amakou~

[Klaus Kinski]

Before I'd pay 20 bucks for this, I'd rather dig out my Blood CD.

[Phait]

$20 for a mod using Blood assets, definitely not legal.

[December Man]

Is this sh*t real? lol!

[d3ad connection]

It seems to be a big joke, I mean come on -

The Game is based off of the famous Atari Game " Blood "

That made me laugh harder than the source code price.

[Artigkar]

Yeah, I pointed that out in 3DR steam chat too. Atari was never involved with the releasing or making of Blood, so how it became a famous Atari game beats me :D

[Hudson]

Man, to think the one person to port Blood to Win32 would sell it. Who would have thought :rolleyes:

[Blade Nightflame]

Big joke, or some poor twat read the whole source code issue a bit oddly.

[Artigkar]

Man, to think the one person to port Blood to Win32 would sell it. Who would have thought :rolleyes:

The most hilarious thing is that its not a port of Blood but looks actually kinda like zBLOOD that doom2 blood TC :D

look at the HUD, did the author have permission to use it from the zBlood team?

EDIT: Compare it with this

Ok I see that its a slightly different color but still...

[Water12356]

I dont think Damien responded yet because he is already at this guys house kicking his ass. :p

[Damien_Azreal]

I've actually been at a friends house playing cards for the night. :) Just got home.

This is disgusting. He doesn't have his facts straight about the origin of the game, it's obvious he's just ripped assets from the zBLOOD project... and he's trying to sell it.

F**k this guy and his "project".

[Hudson]

How is this legal? It's just Blood running on the zDoom engine?

[Damien_Azreal]

I'm pretty sure this is not legal.

[Telee]

What's with the credits? How the **** did his fiance's parents and brother help with development?

Also: http://www.hardycreations.com/blood/Contact.html

I'm really tempted to email this guy. Damn thief.

[Daedolon]

I'll have whatever he's smoking.

I mean wow :D


EDIT: Btw, do you know about GliDOS (http://www.glidos.net/blood.html)? This guy has been giving Blood away for free for years now. I've been trying to contact Atari about it several times but they haven't replied once. Then his program apparently basically stops at one point and you have to pay in order to play more Blood.

Alot of people seem to like cashing in on Blood and Atari doesn't give a sh*t.

Don't tell me you would have actually bought it.

:doh:

[ShadeEX]

This is nothing more than a stupid ******* scam..

Also he's done crap like this before.. He tried passing of some of Frictional Games (the creators of Penumbra) earlier games as his own.. IIRC

I'll see if I can find the news on those scams..

Also he dosn't have a Fiance last I heard she left him and thinks he's a complete tool..

EDIT:

Yup it's definatly the same scumbag Michael J. Hardy.. He's made tons of ripoff scams..

Here's the complete lowdown on his scams posted in a long blog

"The Mike Hardy Saga" at youfailit.net (http://youfailit.net/?p=49)

Also shouldn't the thread title be renamed to include SCAM in the thread title..

[Daedolon]

Yup it's definatly the same scumbag Michael J. Hardy.. He's made tons of ripoff scams..

The License Agreement to his 3D Frogger (seeing what he has done before, it's most likely also a game made by someone else) made me facepalm big time:
YOU MAY USE THE SOURCE FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. YOU MAY NOT REVERSE ENGINEER, TAKE CREDIT FOR, RENAME, RE-PROGRAM USING THE SAME THEME, PLACE YOUR NAME ON THE CREDIT'S, MODIFY THE ORIGINAL SOURCE WITH INTENSIONS OF MAKING MONEY, SALE, PUBLISH, REPUBLISH, DISTRIBUTE THE SOURCE FOR MONEY, AND/OR CHARGE A FEE FOR THE SOURCE...

:doh:

Oh god:
I have released the Source sorta under the GNU, However, If you wish to modify or publish this game you must first obtain written permission from me

He sort of releases stuff under the GNU?

[ShadeEX]

Yeah he's dumb.. Really dumb.. :doh: :brickwall:

[someguy2435]

Massive fail. :doh:

[Duke's New Chainsaw]

That's just... pathetic.

His life is an Epic Fail.

OMG, epic fail indeed.

[motionblur]

I wonder if that guy's got something to do with Limbo of the Lost :D

[Blade Nightflame]

Don't tell me you would have actually bought it.

:doh:

Maybe. Who knows? ;)
Admittedly, just blindly looking at the screenshots got me in a hype surge a bit. But closer inspection soon debunked it, where I realized that this is just junk like the other mod.
And truth be told, I didn't know who this Michael Hardy git was until I read that blog.

[Damien_Azreal]

I wonder if that guy's got something to do with Limbo of the Lost :D

Inspiration. ;)

[motionblur]

...or maybe he was one of those "external artists" they've been working with. :D

on a sidenote: The wiki entry to Limbo of the Lost says that both other team members dissociated themselves from Steve Bovis and said they had nothing to do with art and such whatsoever. Ouch! ^^

Pretty late but I just read through all this. I feel like that caused my brain to melt.
Sheesh ... x___x

[Sang]

This guy can't be serious?

May he suffer Anon's wrath! ;)

[Malgon]

That's some dodgy 'work' there.
