All good arguments there.  Everyone's opinion is valid.  Thanks for the extra links provided and tracking down sellers.

My main point is I don't see why people should still be using my software to make money.  They should go make something themselves and sell it for profit.  I'm sure they're not making too much.  One ebayer is selling a copy for 5 pounds, and relists every month.  So thats 60 pounds (or $150 Australia) a year for the last seven years I didn't get - so boo hoo to me - but you see my point?  It's the principal of the thing that gets to me.

It has been and still is protected by Australian copyright law, and I don't want anyone to sell it or copy and make money from it - even if it is to cover cost of packaging, postage etc. - without my permission.

I just wanna be asked is all.  I don't see why you would need to charge for burning it to cd and posting it to someone.  I mean who are you going to be posting it to?  It should only be a mate who doesn't have an internet connection and why would you charge him?

Regarding the game - I think it's fun, but make sure you play it on a 68030 or better to get good frame rates.  I have also sucessfully run it on WinUAE - you only need Workbench 1.3 disks to get it to work.  A 1.5 gig computer should run it.

Thanks for the interest everyone.  I'm not trying to make a fuss - just go out and enjoy the game.  I hope to have a new version of Starfighter for people to play soon.  I expect a tech demo ready by December.  Though it will be PC I want to port it back to the Amiga later.



It's your software it's your right.

Oh man, all I saw as this:



They're ripping people off, {bleep}s. Hot chick on the main page though.

To those freaks, write your own dang software!
