So what's up with that LEGO Island pre-alpha? 

A lot of times, they **are**, in a literal sense. Private collectors will keep prototypes, dev builds, etc to themselves to preserve their value when they eventually sell them. It’s scummy.

​@@towndarling1618don't defend this shit

it’s so stupid and it was the reason I decided to finally release The Sims Online pre-alpha on archive lmfao kept private for almost 10 years since it was first discovered

Better try to sell it off before someone else releases it for free

the only thing I could think of is maybe worries of legal trouble? this is an unreleased build, but its a stretch to think that whoever even owns the rights to this game anymore (if anyone) would care

At least the guy with McDonalds DS game had a actual reason

@@SomeGuilStuff sure, but the whole "cease and desist" concern would make more sense if it was a Nintendo franchise, and not a collab product. given that it's been abandonware and was lost media for over a decade, and i don't think either party gives a shit, there was no real reason to withhold the game

​@@TheInfamousLegend27 100% i bet the guy was lying about it too

​@iwavrQwpX4uB39nilBlQ Not just that, but the excuse is a cop out. They stupidly advertise they have it, then get contacted by a bunch of lawyers. It's like that guy who had the StarCraft Gold Source Code CDROM. He wanted a bunch of upvotes for a quick dopamine fix, and the community gets nothing. You literally just upload it to a file sharing site hrough a VPN then let other people share it for you.

@@iwavrQwpX4uB39nilBlQ lying? what do you mean?

Which one, Beta 9 or the Omni demo?

@@Ringtail I'm not sure there was a bunch of early builds that released together a few years ago along with early concept art and concept art for the cancelled Phanta Sea sequel it wasn't till individual builds from this leak appeared on 4chan last year that people noticed

I mad a Pong clone in windows forms and I do remember I had the same problem with the up and down arrows and that I was able to fix it very easily. I don’t exactly remember the code, but something like storing the current state of the up and down arrow keys in a variable on top of the game loop and using that variable for all input calls. This way the value cannot change in between if statements and somehow it also fixed the choppy movement. I might still have the code, will post if someone is interested (and if I do find it)

@@core36 yeah I do remember the workaround wasn't too tough, it was just really stupid that it had to be implemented at all in what they called a "game engine"

It has surprised us both! 😅

No, there's a reason! The thinking goes like this:

@@jeffreykirkley6475$$$$$$$$

yeah i heard that and was a lil irked happy some insider leaked it

Profile picture checks out as this has happened before with old Roblox clients.

It's for a very good reason: They can show it off and brag that they have it and no one else can touch it

Lots of progress on a decomp has already been done. Feel free to help with it

Rock Raiders was one of my favorite games growing up. Now I need to play it again

boomer

Yeah, I loved it. I couldn't manage the racing bit, even though I beat LEGO Racers

It's one of those games where the appeal is 95% atmosphere and 5% actual gameplay, since there isn't a whole lot to actually do but the experience is memorable regardless.

What's the July version again? One of the 97 betas or one of the old early demos from 96?

Thank you! ❤

I don't think you need permission to give out this old stuff the people who have it don't own the material despite claiming they do, but if you're really concerned about that and it came from DDI's drives then I'll speak on behalf of the people with those and say it's fine. If it's the Omni demo then that's definitely already public

I joined the matrix discussion for the decompile and they said they already have it.@@Ringtail

can confirm

right?!

I'm not gonna ask how you got here 5 hours ago, but how did you get here 5 hours ago

oh cool me from 5 months ago

Yeah I like watching videos dissecting Lego Island, but LI is essentially a collection of mediocre minigames. It's neat to experience and memorable due to the overall atmosphere (music, graphics, dialogue, etc.), but even as a kid growing up in the late 90s it felt limited (at least for someone who had access to multiple games on the PC and consoles.)
