Fledgling Fyora vishanth Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Huh. Since when did Spiderweb start outsourcing its games? Reflexive Arcade just added it to its game list, and it says it was developed by Oberon Media. They even used the screenshots from the Avernum page. They have a 14.22MB trial and you can buy the full version for $19.95. Unless you, the management, are getting some sort of royalties from this, I suggest you take it up with them. here's the link: http://www.reflexive.com/AvernumIV.html heh. registered for the sole purpose of telling you this...

Well-Actually War Trall Fort Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 I'm going to inform Jeff of this by E-mail tomorrow unless one of you does it first. I guarantee you this is illegal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unflappable Drayk Zummi Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 This proves that SpidWeb games are games not to be trifled with lightly.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Dikiyoba Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Didn't we just go through something like this here ? Dikiyoba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Ephesos Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Yes, but didn't the Toshiba site at least credit Spiderweb? Whoever these Oberon folks are, I don't think Jeff's with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 There's a good chance that the game is properly licensed, but I'd bet Jeff would rather have credit given to the right company. —Alorael, who on the other hand wouldn't be terribly surprised if this incarnation of the third party sales is theft. Any above-board seller should, in fact, give credit to the right company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Spidweb Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Completely 100% legit. It's not the first time we've let other companies distribute our games either. We get paid. No worries. - Jeff Vogel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Aran Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 In that case, the attribution to "Oberon Media" may just be a misfiling error... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Student of Trinity Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Oberon Media is listed as having developed so many games, it must itself be a sort of redistributor. Jeff's deal is probably with them, rather than with the linked site directly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Leftover Sauerkraut Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 Just curious, how much royalties do you receive for letting them distribute your games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Xaiya Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 I was getting worried. Well, I am still going to buy the games from the Spiderweb Website. Doing that helps more to supporting the company. And no support=by by to one of the best game companies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
