I (BigOrno) have written the initial [xrick](http://www.bigorno.net/xrick/) code.
|
|
However, graphics and maps and sounds are by the authors of the original Rick Dangerous
|
|
game, and "Rick Dangerous" remains a trademark of its owner(s) -- maybe
|
|
Core Design (who wrote the game) or FireBird (who published it).
|
|
As of today, I have not been successful at contacting Core Design.
|
|
|
|
This makes it a bit difficult to formally release the whole code,
|
|
including data for graphics and maps and sounds, under the terms of
|
|
licences such as the GNU General Public Licence. So the code is
|
|
released "in the spirit" of the GNU GPL. Whatever that means.
