Even the developer cannot be bothered to release physical copies or pretend to sell them as blank disk copies.
He should have it “accidentally leaked” after his computer got “hacked” 😉
Honestly what’s the point of even releasing videos or showing it off if all it’s going to amount to is a tease?
Seems like kind of a dick move. If they wanted to make it for personal reasons fine but don’t tell anyone else.
Why keep such an accomplishment secret?
One thing Disney is known for is relentless legal pursuit of IP theft. Oh, and cartoon movies. Sometimes they do that too.
But if he releases it and it’s alrdy out there, there’s nothing they can do
It’s a portfolio piece. Nothing wrong with the dude demonstrating what he’s capable of doing. It’s how you break into the game industry.
Nothing wrong with it, but why am I hearing about it?
Because you just might happen to be Mr. Naughty Dog himself browsing Lemmy and thinking “wow that’s the kind of talent I need on my team!”
John Activision, here. I like the cut of this developer’s gib. He’s hired starting immediately.
Remaking Lego Island seems silly when MattKC has already done a lot to get it running on modern PCs, and is in the process of decompiling the binaries.
I watched his Hit and Run remake videos from the beginning, and it’s not really about the end product - he made it clear from the beginning that that project was never going to be released.
Mostly, it seems to be about selling his “learn how to make Unreal games” courses and Unreal plugins.
The videos were fun in their own right, to be honest.
