I heard once that he is burning the code on discs once in a while.

if he chooses to release the code

I seriously hope he's got a backup strategy for that DOS box.

Assuming he has the ability to do that and hasn't just sent all the code to his client.

AFAIK he works on it.

If he adds code bubbles (which he mentions) that would be really cool.

Or His Scripts?

DeedsMoraine | karma 20 | avg karma 1.25 · | 2020-02-27 23:04:41+00:00

He's probably licensed for that, too.

jspash | karma 996 | avg karma 2.91 · | 2020-02-06 15:16:45+00:00

Hopefully his next insight will discover pair programming. Then he can ditch the recordings.

I picture him coding this in vi with a maniacal evil laugh, thinking of all the money his scheme will make

dooglius | karma 2466 | avg karma 2.82 · | 2019-03-02 23:38:42

I wonder if he's come up with some automated tooling to find them, seems like this might be the best way to monetize if so.

This is the scheme he has admitted to in the past - although knowing him it is a script and not a full-fledged CMS.

I think this may be the case, but wouldn't be surprised if he did take it down. He has plenty of money from this, the name recognition now that any releases he makes will get a decent amount of players, and he can just work on something with less pressure behind it.

thedjpetersen | karma 218 | avg karma 2.04 · | 2011-09-03 21:00:35

It would be really cool if he puts his fun side project scripts up. I would enjoy seeing what he hacks on the side.

Geee | karma 5503 | avg karma 2.3 · | 2020-04-04 05:30:35+00:00

Nah, he just needs to update it from time to time.

GrayShade | karma 1227 | avg karma 3.26 · | 2019-11-27 13:48:05+00:00

Nah, he's been doing that for other projects.

mneumegen | karma 89 | avg karma 1.03 · | 2012-12-12 19:50:05

I wonder how he'll backup his footage

jacquesm | karma 227883 | avg karma 3.76 · | 2022-12-18 16:53:46

Maybe he had a download. Let's hope for that.

scottyallen | karma 513 | avg karma 2.93 · | 2012-09-19 10:42:27+00:00

I think he already has:) Look around you at all the people playing. Hint: the ones writing code are winning...

wmf | karma 46152 | avg karma 2.46 · | 2011-06-06 19:45:22+00:00

But first he has to figure out how to pay for N copies.
