QL was our first game and although it was a big milestone for us, it was created at a time before we understood version control software. We do not have access to the source code anymore and cannot make any fixes or changes to the game. Because of this, we have decided to disable the ability for anyone to buy copies of the game. Thank you for your time and feel free to reach out to us.

The trailer looks like an awesome vaporwave freeze tag indie game.

    Why? I was the programming director of a game dev club in university and so many people didn’t know how to use git and I had to teach them. The number of university or early hobby projects that have been lost is probably essentially uncountable.

      I’m a guy who likes to goon, eat magic mushrooms, and play videogames all the time. I don’t lose files.

      Wanna trade jobs?

        lmao your brain is so fried that you cannot understand that people making a game for the first time 10 years ago might’ve not understood the importance of proper version control and backup.
