Hi Yohandy,
Like I said to Will I'll be uploading an updated beta for those who want
it sometime between now and the weekend. However, keep in mind that the
Montezuma's Revenge beta, the last beta that was released, is extremely
buggy and since it is now basically abandonware there won't be any
patches, updates, or bug fixes forth coming.
As far as releasing the game as freeware that is no protection from a
lawsuit. Under U.S. copyright law they can still file a lawsuit if they
feel their copyrights have been violated. Weather or not they would do
or say anything about it is another matter, but they legally could do it
if they wanted to. That's why I am changing the name, and also removing
any thing to do with Montezuma's Revenge from the new side-scroller i am
writing.

I personally would love to grab a copy of the newest beta. It's a
shame that all that hard work was wasted so close to completion. If
you release it as freeware, they can't sue you, correct? Also, why
couldn't you simply change the name of the game and release it as
something else? It's not as if the devs played it, or even know what
the game contains. all that you'd need to do is remove all montezuma
references.
