Hey if it’s still out there as open source could finally fix those bugs lol!

But yeah seems interesting especially if it had a second life once it was opened sourced. It kinda boggles my mind how much companies are willing to scrap things after putting so much work into it, but I guess that’s the whole sunk cost thing but still.

Plenty of nostalgia for toon town so if it was used could broaden audience of video def.

Thanks for your ‘rant’ was interesting seeing some of the same problems that pop up for me in my current game dev (how to handle when to load certain things).
