Based developers with a interesting plan to keep it around.

Time to see the big companies who don't care about their old games do the same.

I doubt for the second one but I do maybe see some more indie companies?

I don't know german so TIL, and it's a reference to space balls. Not exact word, schwar(t)z, but can see it's similar.

I thought maybe it was supposed to mean "Schwanz", which translates to something like dick

I don't have time for this but would be great to see the tournament streamed live! (So that I can watch the replay 😅)

Interesting sales tactic, but that still makes this post basically a giant advertisement. Also LOL @ them being butthurt they couldn't make a living off of this a few years ago so they got mad and put it away.

It's so weird seeing just how much of the internet has transitioned into the "Fuck you, pay me" model.
