Somehow for me Franko resembles Sam and Max combined with an inch of self criticism - a feature which Sommie and Maxie lack with their surreal self confidence. This speaks for itself how well developed a character Franko is. Story, dialogues and narration are all first class. Who will we get to meet in the full Frantic story and what they would got to say is definitely an interesting question. Don’t you think Franko is too nice of a guy ;) .

That's like intruding basic privacy. Guys, whatever the reasons are one shouldn’t demand from other people to reveal publicly ideas and works that they don’t want to.

If his code was "stolen" before then he needs to realise that the GPL is legally binding and he can sue. Yes – he’s very silly for saying that.

Thanks. :) I still have no sympathies for Chris Jones though :P. I wish he would just get over it and join us open source devs. We seriously could use an open and cross-platform adventure engine with an active community. Oooh, that looks indeed a bit better.
