1) It belongs to an actual company who actually wanted people to pay actual money for it.
2) Some guy submitted it saying he co-authored it
3) It says "REGISTERED VERSION: DO NOT DISTRIBUTE"
Although it is a problem that it is still listed under DOS games.

then again... the guy could also being lieing. so i guess the smart choice is to go to the site and see if its now freeware.

Total Posts: 289 | Well I have a confession, it was me who posted the game. It really is freeware though, it says it on one of the informational sites I listed The land of zzt I'm sorry if that is still wrong. The other site I listed is I think the most popular site for the game since the original site has been discontinued Z2. The guy (Tim Sweeney) that I put in the author part was the actuall author and he worked for Epic Games. I'm sorry I didn't know you wern't supposed to put games you didn't write on the site I thought If you gave them proper credit it was ok. I did try to check if it was legal, again I am sorry.

For now, let's just LINK TO IT!!!

Total Posts: 289 | That sounds like a good idea. Sorry about the confusion there, next time I will be a little more clear in the description of my upload. (I fealt like a shmuck for a little while there) And hey maybe it will be a game written by me (Daniel Parrell). I just have to learn a programming language first. :)
Edit: Spelled shmuck wrong. Might still be wrong.
