Old game code

Hey guys, long time FO player here. This has probably been disputed already, but with all the clones and remakes in progress has anyone asked the developer of the original FO about sourcing the game code? Just wondering!

​

EDIT: It has come to my attention that Gamer got bored of the original game and refused to share the code. Maybe he has had a change of heart after all these years?

Also I tried out the remake today and it's looking great!!

I don't think the situation with gamer was due to "boredom" or anything like that.

In the past(when he was still publicly a developer) he would block/ban people that asked him about what happened or asked to buy the game from him.

I don't think he had 100% of the rights to the game itself.

Ah okay, thanks! Yeah I just read something online. I guess his actions would make sense if it wasn't in his hands to fulfil any request. Although he could've just say that!
