Just like AM2R and plenty of other things, once it’s out there in the internet, it’ll never truly disappear. However, the dev expressed some relief in not having to build more than he already has.

I have high hopes for his next project ^^

Nintendo has never publicly released the tools required to build games for the N64. The tools that he used during development (specifically the libUltra library that helps programmers talk to the N64 hardware) therefore are not legally his to use, nor does he have legal rights to distribute software built using it.

As such, Valve is stepping up and asking the project to halt because if Nintdo wanted, they could cause legal troubles for the developer and/or Valve. Since the Portal name and assets are in use, Nintendo could go after Valve as well for seemingly “supporting” unauthorized use of their proprietary tools.

I definitely identify with the second kid. Being tossed around so much because they tried to figure me out and failed definitely doesn’t help. “You’re good! But not good enough.”

I still suffer from this. Promising early start, intense self-confidence issues and depression by the end.

I had a particularly bad automatic transmission in my first car and went with a manual shortly after.

There’s a commercial Linux client I was using called Insync and it was perfect. Only stopped using it because I switched away from Linux

LEGO Island was so awesome… been following MattKC for awhile now and was super pleased he took this on.

I had been looking into trying to remake the island in something more modern like Blender, but without reference or debug info, it’s difficult.

Hopefully this results in some newer and better ways to play. Though it will probably take a few years!
