    It’s kinda cool, but this code is at least 20 years old lol. Aside from a programmer who might read it and go “huh this is neat” there is no value to this at all

      Theres alot of open source projects that reimplement old games with a more modern engine to make it run at current resolutions and have better graphics, this definitely has some value for the people that might wanna work on that. Theres a diablo 1 reimplemenation that was reverse engineered from leaked code i believe

    Cool, hopefully modders can take advantage of this, it’d be cool to see what kinda stuff folk can come up with.

    It’s very cool that we are slowly getting source code for some games! Both through leaks and decompiles. Have the source is so helpful for preservation and mods.
