Paragon becomes Jumpdrive

Post by FluffyFreak »

It looks like Epic were in talks with Paragon because they've decided to release a game with the same name.

Paragon have therefore renamed themselves Jumpdrive.

Interesting.
Please remind me, where can I find their source code?

I think it's here but they probably need prodding, again, about their responsibilities regarding uploading and making available their code under the licence terms.

There's been no source code update in ... well a very long time, they seem to have completely forgotten that they have to make it available, perhaps someone needs to request it?

Screenshot... Just in case it would be removed.

They just updated the sources with a massive commit.

I assumed they would do just that: "as a massive commit", to make it way harder to see what has been done, and to migrate changes back.
