--- Quote from: Dreamcast99 on January 27, 2014, 09:53:41 PM ---yeah, i did. Nothing for sale just video of gameplay and a pic of the game --- End quote --- Qyote from the site --- Quote ---We have partnered with X to provide limited edition games in a complete set. These sets include: A Collectors box A new glossy Manual A Brand new Game *Some include maps or guides --- End quote --- That is selling or directing to site that sells, so according to our rules set by all mighty lord of ours, Snowcone, is a no no. |

--- Quote from: Jeff on January 27, 2014, 09:54:46 PM ---Why are homebrew games not okay? Licenced roms I understand but homebrew games for obsolete systems are just hobby projects mainly. The only ones I'm familiar with are Super Bat Puncher and D-Pad Hero. D-Pad Hero is a demake of guitar hero if you're into that kind of thing, and Super Bat Puncher is only a demo but it's REALLY impressive as an original homebrew game, and definitely should be checked out. --- End quote --- Homebrews use (not always, but most of the time) copyrighted images, characters or game engine. in short we feel that puts us in too big risk |

We just limit our risk to as small as possible. |

Anyway, gotta hit the hay, work starts in 7 hours. Other mods feel free to clarify our stance. |
